I didn't have much in it so I dropped it entirely via phpMyAdmin and reinstalled, which created a new Key Master. Now, the Dashboard is accessible again.</p> <p>The ability to delete all key masters is a definite major design bug. The last one must remain protected. Is this to be fixed? And how about calling the first (and last) key master the Owner? After all, it belongs to him or her to do with as he or she wishes. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-demoted-myself#post-8725 Fri, 06 Jul 2007 06:11:43 +0000 stuzog 8725@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'm having a similar problem in that I may have deleted the Key Master user, as when I log in as 'admin' (which was my Key Master) I don't get the Admin link to go to the Dashboard.</p> <p>It happened after I deleted a Key Master user, although I thought that admin was still a key master. However, I'm getting all sorts of problems with not being able to log back in after changing the password. It seems not to to 'take.' </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/why-key-masters#post-8439 Sun, 24 Jun 2007 14:55:51 +0000 fel64 8439@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Why don't you just set your custom title to "Supermegaadmin"? That should get the message across without needing you to make a new account. :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/why-key-masters#post-8437 Sun, 24 Jun 2007 14:31:21 +0000 riddle 8437@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I don't mind cutesy names that appear only behind the scenes, but since the role "Key Master" gets displayed to end users, it might be helpful if it were called something more intuitive. Users may grasp the Admin &gt; Moderator &gt; Member &gt; Inactive &gt; Blocked hierarchy, but probably not that there's a Key Master who rules them all. "Superadmin," maybe? </p> <p>Just a suggestion. I guess as a workaround I'll create a new Key Master account and downgrade my usual account to "Admin." </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-demoted-myself#post-6618 Wed, 11 Apr 2007 00:15:59 +0000 fel64 6618@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>It may be easiest to modify the database entry. Backup your databases, then open PHP MyAdmin or the like.</p> <p>You need to know your user id number, which is probably the number in the URL when you go to your profile. Run a query like<br /> <code>SELECT * FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id = 1 AND meta_key = &#39;bb_capabilities&#39;</code> (changing <code>1</code> to your user id) to show the relevant field. Edit this entry so that you're made a Key Master again. I don't know what it should be, but for my account (I'm a Key Master) it's<br /> <code>a:1:{s:9:&quot;keymaster&quot;;b:1;}</code></p> <p>Since this may break things, you <em>need</em> to have a database backup first. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-demoted-myself#post-6617 Tue, 10 Apr 2007 23:36:56 +0000 cole07 6617@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I was a Keystone Master or something and I demoted myself to admin... how can I get the spot back?</p> <p>Or how can I hack the script to give the next registered members this Keystone Master spot? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/why-key-masters#post-6144 Thu, 29 Mar 2007 19:06:13 +0000 wittmania 6144@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Will there also be a corresponding "gate keeper" title in 1.0?

Installing bbPress inside of Wordpress makes the cookie sharing easier, but the link I provided above for integration with Wordpress out of the bbPress documentation. It has great information on cookie domains and WP sharing.</p> <p>Trent </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/post-install-login-not-working-grrrrr#post-2063 Thu, 07 Dec 2006 05:15:25 +0000 intellivision 2063@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Success. I redid everything, dropped the db's bb_ tables, started over, and it worked.</p> <p>This time I put the forum folder inside the WP folder. (I tried to log in with another browser, so make sure it wasn't just my WP "admin" cookie getting me in, and the other browser worked.)</p> <p>That by itself shouldn't necessarily have provided a magic fix, only share cookies, right?</p> <p>So what was it? I don't know for sure... maybe the my-plugins folder didn't have the correct permissions, or the bbPress plugin inside it, and re-doing everything helped.</p> <p>I wish I could be of more help here to those who can't get it working. Maybe just being a real example of a person who had a no-login issue and resolved it is enough motivation. My advice: start over.</p> <p>Thanks to Trent for your assistance offer!</p> <p>Matt </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/post-install-login-not-working-grrrrr#post-2062 Thu, 07 Dec 2006 03:30:05 +0000 Trent 2062@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Take a look at a post like:</p> <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/345?replies=4" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/345?replies=4</a></p> <p>As well, make sure you have the plugins for integration loaded.

Good.</p> <p>The install went smoothly. I set the Key Master to "admin". So far so good. Right after, I tried to log in as "admin". No dice.</p> <p>I went to my WP blog, logged in as "admin" with my usual pw, got in fine. Changed the pw.
