it's simpel step for beginerto improve their mybb securityfrom hacker :rly:


Find file config.php in folder root/inc/

Code:
/**
* Admin CP directory
* For security reasons, it is recommended you
* rename your Admin CP directory. You then need
* to adjust the value below to point to the
* new directory.
*/

$config['admin_dir'] = '[color=#ff3333]admin[/color]';

change 'admin' with the name folder you want ex: xytxt
next go to your public directory hosting and rename the directory 'admin' use what you want. ex:xytxt (must same w/ $config['admin_dir'] =)

Quote:Ex :
Before
http://www.yourdomain.com/admin/index.php

After Rename
http://www.yourdomain.com/xytxt/index.php

when you wan to install some plugin, you must remane admin directory (in the plugin package) before you copy to your public directory inside package.
