Ok, something kinda odd here.... hopefully i'm just doing something really dumb.

Was setting up a new ftp account for a user, and I accidentally modified my own personal account to go to /htdocs/ as main directory instead of the root of the accounts ftp.

I try changing it back to the exact path of the main user, which is:

/www/k/killrkevr

and throws a javascript error that says:

"User's home directory must be a sub directory or your master users home directory"

if I add a "/" to the end of it, it successfully submits, but when the page refreshes, it still says "/www/k/killrkevr/htdocs" as my directory

any help would be appreciated. I was hoping I could remove the account and re-add it as a default root directory, but all it does is "deactivate" the account, leaving the path the same

Deactivated accounts can take a week max before you can delete it. When you create an FTP they are given a u/user so try the u/user you are setting up.

As for your master u/user I think support will be fastest.
