How do I 'un-ip-ban' myself?

[Andy Huang]

Ok... As posted eariler in the wrong forum, I'm having some difficult time with a certain member on a forum I moderate. To test out the IP ban function, I went and IP banned myself from the DB (DB > Forum > Setting > settingid 98). I was glad to see that the IP banned message appear correctly; so I went and removed my IP from DB. I was expecting that I can access the forum again, but much to my surprise, no, I still cannot access the forum... I cleared my cookies and cache, thinking maybe this would work, and its still not working... Do you guys have any suggestions as to why this is happening and how I can come about fixing it? Seesh... miserable member causing myself to be miserable... lol

Well, you can try accessing your admin CP from another computer with different IP to remove your IP from the ban list.

IP is already not in the banlist; I've already checked both ACP and DB.

Do you have any IPs banned? Most likely there'es a mistake in this list (for instance a hard return instead of a space.)

[Andy Huang]

Yes, there are other IPs banned; but that -- appearently -- wasn't the problem.
I went into ACP, cut all the contents of the IP ban field, then saved, and pasted it back into the field, and saved again. Then I can access the forum again. I think it may be presistant connection caching the query about my IP ban and thus doesn't work; or something silly like that...

Thanks all for helping
