how about giving the page a name? go to "www.yoursite.com/admin.php" then preferences and fill out the info on the page. do you have a link? did u setup the admin account on the page that loads after the install? if so u can turn it off or delete it by clicking messages and the select the only message that is there and edit it. then u can either delete it or choose not to show it. what version of nuke are u running?

lol, well get going with some help then lose it, Ive made it this far but now lost again, can anyone help, I check this thread at least every 10 mins, so as soon as i know what i should do i do it then come back and say now what?? lol, once i can figure out how to begin i should be able to hash the rest out. I want visitors to my site to be able to log into it with their name and password, seems simple but no clue where to start??? How do i get a login box on my site, how does it work with a sql or whatever, no idea?? please someone shoot me!!!!
