Need Help - Urgent

[Reduced]

So I got my 3.8.4. vBulletin Forums running and my partner accidentally removed us from the Admin set so we do not have access to the ACP. But I do have access to the cPanel which has the Full Control Panel of the site. Anyone know how I can make myself an admin again in-order to have access to ACP?

In cPanel access file manager and browse your way down to the config.php file (path is usually forums/includes). Edit the file and find the Super Administrators section and add your self in that line... as in
$config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '1';replacing the 1 with whatever your number is. if you need more than one superadministrator, it would be '1,2' etc.

Did exactly what you said but still doesn't work.

The thing is my partner made a new user group called 'owners' with the same admin settings then moved us to that group. Later on, without knowing, he accidentally deleted the user group so ya, that was what happened and I just did what you told me to do but I still don't have access to admincp.

Okay, if that isn't working for you then you're going to have to change your usergroup at the database level. From within cpanel, launch phpmyadmin. Browse down to the user table and click on the browse button. Find your userid and edit that record. Change the usergroupid field to 6, and that will put you back in the administrator group again.

You might want to also consider adding your user id to the undeletable/unalterable section of the config.php file just to prevent these sorts of problems from cropping up again.
