This is sort of a faq... You cannot activate the password of the user you are currently logged in as. Magnolia uses the credentials of the user who is currently logged in for activation. So change back the superuser password, create new user with admin privilges, activate that user, lgon in as new user, change password of superuser, activate superuser.
Oh and don't forget to either delet or chage the passwords for the other default users as well. As a last resort, if your site is not yet publicly availabe you can also set server/admin to true on public. This will reenable the modify user context menu. Change the password of superuser to be the same as on author and set admin back to false. -markus > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, October 12, 2005 1:41 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [magnolia-user] sorry to ask public password > > > Ummm bit of a panic here... > I changed the password for superuser in author then activated over to > public.
