Hi,
how can i manually change the admin e-mail address?
Actually the e-mail is admin@server.local - but i can't read mails from the forum in this mailbox...

thanks

Can't you use the admin panel of the app to change the email of that user? I think in our instance we have created our users first then gave them admin status then deleted the initial admin.

@nebulon Via admin panel it's not possible to change the admin-e-mail.
I will try to add another admin user an delete the old one.

@hollosch I was able to go to the admin profile page i.e under https://forum.xx/user/admin and change the email. It sends a confirmation email to the new address:

On clicking the above link, the email address changes.
