what mysql table handles the users

Permalink
So I am finding out that my master user, does not have all the privileges it needs to do administer level it needs (i.e. edit users). It will not even let me into the Users screen, can someone tell me which table in the mySql DB i need to go into to update to give that user all rights needed.

I looked at each able but nothing is obviously labeled, Users.

It's the users table.

There's no flag in that that marks the 'super' admin, I'm pretty sure it's a hardcoded thing that the user with the uID of 1 is always the super and doesn't have any restrictions (it effectively ignores permissions).

It sounds like your master user isn't actually the super user, but some other user that has been marked to be in the administrators group.
