Administrator as moderator

An administrator should do things that moderators can, isn’t it? As a administrator I can’t see a button/link to change a topic title

Or.. Since I’ve created another administrator, can I change my profile (the initial user who created the forum) to moderator and leave the new one as administrator?

administrators have considerably more power than a moderator…   Anyone, including moderators or admins, who can change a topic title would do it the same way – using the forum tools…

you will need to be on forum view (the list of topics in that forum)… when you hover over the topic row, the forum icons tool will appear in the upper left (in our themes anyways) of that topic row… clicking on it will bring up a window where you can edit the topic title…

I didn’t know what you were talking about until I saw it working in this forum, I’m using the default theme but the hover is not working, I guess it’s related to my other issue with the empty profile tab because both of them are trying to load an url like this (index.php?sp_ahah…):

spjDialogAjax(this, “http://www.subnoise.es/index.php?sp_ahah=admintoollinks&sfnonce=92567e2017&action=topictools&topic=11148&forum=1&page=1”, “Herramientas del foro”, 250, 0, 0);

Did I miss something in my theme’s index.php (or functions.php) or should it be pointing to another file?

See the other thread on profilers – I just posted there…

was this resolved when you added the proper wp_footer() call?

Yes, that was my last change because I left the jquerys as they were at first.

I don’t see the relation but it’s fine for me if it works 😉
