Well,
that depends on what you are referring to. Ok, so
you mean, "Is there only one administrator?"
Initially, when BidBud is first installed, there is
only ONE account by default, the "admin" account.
This account is the "main" admin. When you click on
the link to modify a person's profile, you have, as
an Administrator, the ability to choose what membergroup
he/she is in at the bottom of the profile. One of
the options is "BidBud Administrator". YES, this means
you can make someone else an administrator! This does
not remove your status as the administrator; it is
rather just a nice feature where you can give your
best buddies the same privileges as you have! We advise
you to use GREAT caution when choosing other administrators,
as they have access to ALL of the settings of your
board. As the "original" or "main" admin, there is
one option you have that nobody else (even other admins
have). In the membergroup dropdown box, when modifying
a profile, there should be a blank line option. This
allows you to take the membergroup completely off
anyone, including other people you set as an administrator!
That's a handy feature.
How
can I turn off some of those bloat-fish features?
Many
of the features/add-ons in BidBud can be turned off
via the "Admin Center" or modified in Settings.pl.
Ok,
people are telling me the news screws up in their
browser!!!
You have
the option of turning the NewsFader off in Settings.pl...
some browsers don't like the java associated with
this news ticker. If you do this and still wish to
have news, you'll need to put the tag "<yabb news>"
tag back into template.html. That tag will put static
news on every page of the forum, and YaBBC is not
allowed in your news in this case.
Why
are the colors funny in browsers that don't support
CSS?
Because
they don't support CSS, the color settings in Settings.pl
will control the colors in those browsers. Be sure
that you set the colors in template.html equivalent
to those in Settings.pl. There will still be a few
quirks, but getting these settings to match your CSS
tag in template.html will resolve many issues.
