 The administrative username
 Posted on: 06/01/10 at 08:10:30

The default is "admin"

I have been looking to change it to something else like 'Creator'

Seriously, how can I change the Administrative username? A reinstall?

From what I can tell it's a default setting that is permanent. My only issue with it (paranoia gone wild) is that an international team of big blue meanies would be halfway to hacking into my world class site only because they would know the user name.  (how do I put a scary faced smiley here?)

Hmm... Maybe the user name should be the user name and the administration privileges
should only be set as the admin ;) see's fit.

I hate being 'admin' because I hate titles. I'm starting to feel like a conformist. User name: admin  rolleyes
