You could change your settings back to use that, log in as keymaster, and make your new desired account keymaster.</p> <p>Or you could just reinstall. Surely it's not that much of a problem? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/make-a-wp-user-a-keymaster-with-no-keymaster-on-bbpress#post-7636 Thu, 24 May 2007 19:14:01 +0000 Omarvelous 7636@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Run a search for key_master. Some1 had deleted theirs, and another user provided a key to add in wp_usermeta. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/make-a-wp-user-a-keymaster-with-no-keymaster-on-bbpress#post-7634 Thu, 24 May 2007 18:39:53 +0000 nlaspf 7634@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I had originally installed bbPress on a different database than WordPress and later I set the config file to use the WP database for users (I know, I know, but it was my first time installing bbPress...). It works fine except for one detail. Since the keymaster user was set on the bbPress db, after the switch I lost it, and now I can't log in to the control panel. </p> <p>Is there a way to make a WP user a keymaster? I tried adding the $bb-&gt;new_keymaster = 'admin'; // thing to the config file and re-running the install (told me it was already installed) and the upgrade (told me nothing to upgrade) with no luck. </p>
