Hi everyone, Sorry I try not to waste the forum's time with repeat questions and I've researched this article here:
http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/23345/solved-userid-1-accidentally-deleted-how-screwed-am-i
But in doing some spring cleaning I stupidly deleted my admin account ):
I've attached screenshots from my php admin, wondering if anyone has any advice? Appreciate it!

Sure, just make a new row in the user table. Give it Admin = 1, set the password field to a plaintext password, and set HashMethod to 'Text'. The rest of the fields you can set as you please. It will re-hash the password when you login.
Then give yourself a role in the Dashboard for completeness. Admin=1 makes your role irrelevant, tho.
Wow thanks so much doing now appreciate it (^_^)
Sorry Lincoln, can I ask one more think when I added a new row I don't see admin option, not sure if it's from something I did?
Found it my bad.
