Title: Banned - I (the admin) have been banned
Post by: gene on April 22, 2009, 01:41:11 PM
As the admin I was trying to set up a password protected album.
Created a password for this album.
As a visitor I was trying to view protected album.
Not sure what username to enter, tried a couple time with the correct password.
NOW I am Banned from even viewing the public Gallery.
How can I fix this?
Thanks...

If you are indeed the admin then i assume you have access to the phpmyadmin. Search this board for " reset admin password". You can reset your admin user through phpmyadmin.

While you are at it, make sure you are using 1.4.21

The temporary ban that is triggered if you try to login too many times with improper account details will go away, as it is only temporary. More about it (threshold and number of failed login attempts) can be configured. Read up the docs to find out how.
