    So I've been wondering this ever since I joined NH...

    How is it possible to give more than one group access to the admin panel? I've never seen groups like Co-Admins anywhere else.

    There's an option under group management.
    You could also give only a certain user certain powers.

    You could also limit sections one can go under in the admin panel.

    Sayf has a point. But adminship was meant to be for 1 person (me), so Co was for helpers. That's another point.

    How, though? I've never seen any option... I've asked Forumotion Support this in the past, and they couldn't be more unhelpful. So do you guys know a way fo sho?

    Because you can have multiple groups and Ahmed has a hidden Administrator group that he basically adds to Co-Admin. That's why even when you are the co-admin, sometimes you aren't able to access the panel, because Ahmed forget to add the Admin group.

    Forumotion Support said only one group can access the Admin Panel...

    So then, any group can access the AP if given the proper permissions?

    I'll check out the updated admin panel on the forum Vedu and I were working on. (But I got lazy and stopped going.. again)
