    Admin areas showing up in the Archive

    I'm helping a friend with her vB and although the admin sub-boards are showing up in the archives, even to persons not signed in. Is there some settings somewhere to fix that? I did a search here but couldn't find anything.

    Thanks.

    Its because you're logged in as an administrator. The archive works off of the same permissions as the forums.

      We can not provide you with support for a friend. She has to start her own support thread / ticket.

        What happened was Google was picking up the threads in those areas. You could view them in guest mode, although when you clicked on the "Full Version" link, you got the standard error message.

        Well... My friend just purchased the board for her website a couple of weeks ago on my recommendation and had me install it so she didn't have to deal with the technical details. She wouldn't know what to say in a ticket or thread.

          I understand, but we still can't provide you with support as we can't verify she actually has a site. Next time please ask her to post the ticket or thread

            I'll let her know.

            Edit: I figured it out with help from a PM. It was a plug-in hosing a setting.

              Can't she add his e-mail address as someone who has permission to request support for that license?

                I wonder if that's possible since I have my own license...

                  In the future please have her fill out a support ticket.

                    I'll let her know she needs to lodge the tickets her self and make sure she shows as licensed on this mboard.
