how do i make myself the administrator?

[groundup]

It should have done that on the install. If you have a user that is already an admin, just go to your profile via the admin and make the new user an admin. If not, you can access your db.

from Admin FAQ (http://www.yabbse.org/community/index.php?board=133;action=display;threadid=10748)

I was stupid and deleted my admin account, what do I do?
Download the admin restore tool.  http://www.yabb.info/jeffstools/adminrestore.zip
Place it in the directory as Settings.php and call it up in your browser, will restore admin rights to the user you specify.  So create yourself a user on the board and then use this tool to make yourself an admin.

Using phpMyAdmin..
go to the members table,
search for the user that you want to make an admin (select * where username='yourusernamegoeshere'),
edit the user,
memgroup should be Administrator.

Done.

you need to CHMOD 666 template.php so u can edit it via Admin center

you've put some wrong settings in Settings.php line 131, or maybe a line before that, try using the backup settings (Settings.bak.php)
