I am the main admin on my forum but I have given several people the admin rights. Is there a way to completely remove them?

If you are referring to Simple:Press ‘admins’ then in the Manage Admins panel you can remove their capabilities. You can remove ALL capabilities with the checkbox provided.

That can be cached for a while. Is it still showing the names?

that is not required – just verified that is working as expected…are you sure they were removed as sp admins (NOT wp admins)?

but sounds like you are where you want to be….
