Changing origina admin name

[shimotori]

Hi
I'd like to change the name of the original administrator from X to Y.

or

to create another administrator with all the privilleges of the original admin.

How do I go about this?

Thanks

To change the user name you would have to do this...

1) Make sure they are not an undeletable user in your config.php file. Remove their user id from the appropriate section.

2) Find their User Profile in the Admin CP under Users -> Search for Users.

3) Enter the new user name in the profile and save.

4) Make them undeletable if they were previously.

To create a new user with the same permissions:

1) Go to Users -> Add New Users

2) Enter in the information and set their primary Usergroup to Administrator.

3) Save the User

4) On the next screen click the Red Link that says "Edit Administrator Permissions".

5) Turn all permissions on.

6) Save.
