Subject: Enabling DB And Security?
I have to rebuild search tables, but I could not find the category DB and Maintenance, listed here: http://www.icyphoenix.com/viewtopic...=search+rebuild Any can throw a wire with this?

This is the latest version.

ACP -> DB And Security -> Database Maintenance -> Rebuild search index

Point is that DB and Security is nowhere to be found... don't know if you are aware about what I mean :( I'd swear on old times I had to do something somewhere for that category to appear...

Templates options maybe - had to be "switched" on in the side panel - I Don't recall Db and Security being affected?

The files should only need to exist in the adm folder.

BTW - - What version ARE you talking about :?:

Last update, 2.0, right? Anyway, I think I remember something about you had to be the user with ID=1 (not my case, but I could easily modifiy that using phpMyAdmin). Could I be right?

You're way off - Change it and you will no longer be Admin.

And your "User-Permissions" are encoded - Not that one should change them anyway!

Re-Upload all the files in the adm folder with BINARY and make sure you have 3 files that start with admin_db_

Do the same to the templates/common/ACP/*.*

GoTo - ACP - > Clear the cache's -> Refresh the Admin Index page...

If that don't work - then you will have to wait for either informpro or MG for an answer. ;)

PS:

BTW - - Are you testing this on XAMPP/web etc - Or are you using it live on the web. ?

OK, now I'm glad to have not tried that :D

Files are OK and they exist on adm folder ;)

I tried both, local and remote installations with no results. DB and Maintenance category is nowhere to be found :cry: Hope anyone could give another hand here... because I'd swear last time I used de DB feature I had to do something especial for it to be shown :loveit: Anyway, I could start from a blank IP 2.0 and import my already existent posts tables in order to rebuild the search tables and import them back on the "real site"...

Is this what your after

dbsec2

If so then its definately there, what template are you using ?

Subject: Re: Enabling DB And Security?
I did not read everything,

but you can change the main admin otr better enable the special features:

Take a look at this code \includes\constants.php
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
// Insert here the IDs of the main admins separated by commas, they will be able to access special features in ACP
// Allowed features: Action Logs, Private Messages, DB Tools, Templates Edit (XS Style)
// If the constant is deleted then every admin is able to access the Full ACP
define('MAIN_ADMINS_ID', '2');


Change this like that
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
define('MAIN_ADMINS_ID', '2,YOUR_ID');

:LOL:

The problem is he can't see the db-utils anywhere in the ACP/left panel?

Maybe he should take a snapshot of exactly what he DOES see in the ACP - along with the VERSION number in the left-side panel.... :mryellow:

Yes, that was the point I got by quick reading. :mricy:

And my answer was. Only Main Admins can see "DB and Security" on the left site in ACP.
You can change the Main Admin in \includes\constants.php
See my post above.

Right. This is a very important security feature -- you don't want every admin to be able to access your whole DB, that'd be scary. (it's also why we have junior admin)

I am still trying to work out how one can install Icy Phoenix and NOT end up as the "Main Admin" and then have to go through changing ID's and or permissions to access something only the Main Admin can..

:shock: :shock: :shock:

If that was the case then Icy Phoenix would be requiring an URGENT patch/upgrade to fix it.. :LOL:

When you setup Icy Phoenix, you are the main admin... in constants.php ID 2 is already set.

But if you want to assign special features to other users, the main admin should be aware of what he is doing. By adding this check to a file, it should be more difficult to hack instead of "stealing" admins right from DB or sessions.

I know - This is what has me beat, as I doubt very much that Sarakin would have been messing with permissions as soon as he installed it?

I could be wrong - But I'm not using the latest release from GitHub.. Maybe I should change that - "Today".
:P

@Sarakin - Do you actually see the category DB And Security in the side menu or not :?:

And you say you are using "Last update, 2.0, right?"
