If the latest 1.3.9h one must rename the admin folder to gain access

yes it is 1.3.9h. What do I rename the admin folder to?

I've had a look at the link you provided but it's a little confusing

Thanks

Something super secret

Check the /cache for mydebug files

Might add a bit on what you use to FTP with and if any edits - - what editor you use

[audiomandan]

ok I have changed it to something super secret and it has worked!

Thanks for your help there.

FYI i use Filezilla for FTP and notepad for editing

Cheers!

Is this relating to the admin folder name change?

Thanks

Did it work ad now not?

When you renamed the admin folder did you also edit the /admin/includes/configure.php file to reflect the new folder name?
As I recall there are only 2 places where you need to edit it

Ok i changed the two admins in the configure file and that has done it!

I seem to be back to normal

Thanks for all your help
