Can't remove board creator from board

Jennifer Leigh April 24, 2017

We recently had a team member resign who had created several boards on our team. I do not seem to be able to remove her from the boards she created:

There's a little blue double "^" oo the bottom of her icon, and as shown above there is no "remove user" option when I click on her icon.

What am I missing?

Thanks!

It looks like the user is the only admin of the board. The user can only be removed from the board, if another admin is on the board (to prevent that the board is without any admin). You can find some steps to recover the board here: http://help.trello.com/article/768-changing-the-admins-of-a-team-or-board

I am the team admin. She was a team member who created the board. As a team admin I am not able to administrate a board within the team?  

That sounds pretty broken.

Here are some screenshots.

For context, the example board (one of several Sara created being affected by this behavior) is "Marketing Strategy," and it's part of the "InPlay Marketing" Team. 

I am the team admin, and shown as "Jennigma."
