My Forum Working Now,Now Tells Me I want To Protect My AdminCP,Which Permission I will Set

Rename your "admincp" folder, that's enough protection trust me. And stay out of downloading apps from untrusted source. And you'll be fine. No one can guess how you name admin control panel.

Also go in your templates - footer template.

And remove :

                <if condition="$show['admincplink']"><a href="$admincpdir/index.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[admin]</a> -</if> 

So there will be no admin control panel link on your forum when you're logged in as administrator. So even if the "hacker" gains your password he can't get into panel.

Note :

You will need to manually type your admin control panel folder name when you want to go into it. There will be NO link in forums footer.
