If I give one of my moderator access to Admin CP, is there a possibility that he change my password and take over the forum so to speak?

Basically is it safe to give Admin CP access? or does it have to be someone you trust more than 100%?

only give admincp access to people that you absolutly trust! they can do alot of things to your board, including but not limited to, banning you from your own forum, delete all of your forums and categories, and much more!

once they ban you they can also make the forum get deleted by turning off the bopard which will allow only them to log in in order for the automatic deleteion to stop.

Don't give him your password. All you have to do is upgrade his account through User Management.
