Umm... I have a sort of dumb question, how do you add more ADMIN's to your web site I know how to add more mods, but I can't seem to find the option on adding more admin's.

be very carefull in adding any admins besides yourself to your admin/cp,be sure you can trust them first and they will not screw you over in any way....
you can add a member to the admin group in your admin/cp through users profiles i believe and or edit members and such....but as i said be very carefull adding any body as a admin to your board the best bet is for you to be the main admin and learn and have mods to help on your board...hope that helps.

ok first things first: DON'T ADD THEM AS THE ROOT ADMIN! make them a secondary admin.

ACP -> Users & Groups -> Manage User Groups -> Add a new member group -> base the new group on thew Admins -> click "Setup new group" -> edit the global, Global Permissions, and posting permissions to your needs -> then at the bottom "Moderation Permissions" change that all to yes. Save and add new group. Remember to change "New Group" to Admins with an "s".

-- NOW go do this --

ACP -> Users & Groups -> Find/Edit/Suspend User -> type in the member name in the first textbox "Member Quick Search" and press "Find member" -> click "Edit Details" -> find "Member Group" dropdown box -> Switch them to the Admins profile. your done.
