Creating An Editor user

Editing templates can render a forum unusable.
If you are going to edit a template then you must take the following precaution.

Create a new user with admin powers with the name "editor".

To do this just sign up with the name editor then log out and sign in as admin and goto Admin panel- user admin - user list - then edit the user editor and make him/her admin, by using the drop down bar at the top left. Now sign out and resign in as editor.

You can use a fake email address to do this if you do then when you sign back in under admin goto admin panel -- Users List -- editor now click edit and right at the bottom click user is active.

This user is unique in that they will always see the template/style set in their profile, regardless of "Override user style" being set.
