You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

I found a solution:

Changing the prefix wp_ to another example_ causes this error message to be generated.

I tried everything I could think of like new installation, older versions, plugins, themes etc. The only way I was able to get back to the admin was to revert back to the wp_ database prefix.

Once I went and again changed back all the database prefixes, and updated the wp-config.php I went to the tab of my browser with the error message on it, clicked refresh on the browser and bingo I’m back in admin.

I am quite sad for this to have happened, for the wp_ prefix is a security issue. With wp security scan not working, this hole in the system we really need a better security system.

I am a firm believer in redundancy over protection. If we could for example copy an image of our site application, and restore it. Much like restore points in windows. I think we would be well blessed.

Another issue of new suspected user attacks using the email @emailworldwide.info with a letter text name and numbers following examples:
[email protected]
[email protected]

While working on my wordpress setups, I noticed two similar users registered about two hours apart. Shortly after they left my system quit showing front side pages.

Hope this is a blessing to someone,
