• WP was working fine for me up until today. Now when I click on Site Admin I get a page that says “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

    I tried logging out and logging back in again but I get the same error.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Declan

  • Sounds like your user permissions somehow got changed. Do you have a backup of your database from when things were working?

    Adding this since it came up via a search for teh solution. if I hit it, someone else will as well.

    This worked great for me. In case the link goes dead, let me reproduce it here. Upload this as force-upgrade.php and run it from a web browser:
