I'm an administrator for a workspace. I wanted to give another member the admin role on a board, but accidentally removed myself instead. Now none seem to be able to add any new members to this board. Is there any way to add yourself to a board when none is an admin on it?

Hi @Carl Lycke ,

 

If I read correctly, you had removed yourself as an admin from a board.

 

Has there been other members configured to the board?

If the 'Adding and removing members' permission is configured to 'All members', other team member will be able to add without being an admin.

 

Also good to know, was the board visibility configured to Private or Workspace?

Thanks for responding.

 

Yes, I have removed myself as an admin from a board. There are other members on the board, and I'm still able to visit it, but only as a guest.

The board's current permissions state that only administrators may add or remove members, but anyone can connect to the board (as guests only I would assume).

 

The board's visibility is set to Workspace. The other members are able to edit cards, but can't invite anyone.
