So I'm finally delving into LNBits on my node but i cant install any extensions. It says i need an admin account. I've got mynode running and when I load up LNBits I don't see anywhere that mentions the admin account? Any help here would be appreciated!

Bitkarrot may have a more direct answer for ya.

I havent setup LNBits yet, but cursory glance at github repo implies an environment variable can be set to define LNBITS_ADMIN_USERS as a comma separated list of userids.

MyNode github repo defines env without any values in LNBITS_ADMIN_USERS.

It may be possible to modify the env file directly and restart the lnbits service. On mynode, the file is at /mnt/hdd/mynode/lnbits/.env

Thanks vic! I'll look into it... I saw this but was hoping to avoid dealing with command line and the file system. Was hoping there was just like a "make acct admin" button I was missing lol.

I'm not so good with Linux so I'll see if I can stumble my way thru. I'm on the mynode vmbox instance (Debian fwiw) so..... hopefully that doesn't make things too much more complicated.

OK likely a dumb question but... how do I access a file editor on debian?

with CLI i usually use nano or vim

Ahh thank you! I got in and was able to update!

I'm sure it's a super simple 2 second task for supercoders as yourselves but man oh man, I feel like I just conquered the matrix 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 all I did was save a string of values into an existing text file. Sigh.
