Create a forum! Add a user - me, under Moderator put my user name and it does not appear in the moderators box next to the forum.

Did you give "yourself" administrator priviledges?

also did you make a spelling mistake -- not sure here yet since I haven't played with the forum on my dev box that much.

I wonder , since I created my user first -- checked privileges -- made a category -- made a forum and add my user by hand ...

hmmm ... can't think of anything else off hand right now...

good luck

Hi,

Most likely it's because you are an Administrator. They are not considered moderators and so do not show up in the list.

Cheers,

Thanks Alex - is that not a bit strange - an Administrator should should be able to be shown in the list.

Here's a suggestion and a bug:

Administrators should have full modetor + privileges... I am the Administrator of my board so I should be able to delete posts, edit them, etc.

Here's the bug:

When trying to add a moderator to any of my forums I get this error:

GT::SQL::Table (8996): Failed to prepare query: 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM gforum_ForumModerator WHERE user_id_fk = '3' AND forum_id = '5' ' Reason: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid column name 'forum_id'.
