Hi, I just did a fresh install and somehow (due to my own tinkering with my database backup) I managed to make my WikiSysop account a non-sysop user.
As there is no other Sysop, how can I create one?
I have a copy of the original DB backup, but I've already made a few changes and would rather not clear/restore the database.
Thanks
You may try SQL command from MySql console and update the the user_rights of WikiSysop account or any other accounts directly from the database. For example: $mysql -u root -p pasword here mysql> use wikidb mysql> update user set user_rights='sysop' where user_name='WikiSysop';
It should work then
