I am unable to login as administrator at my blog. Whenever I enter my admin user name, it takes me to a different user with a setting of 7. This eliminates several several options, including plugins and changing the presentation.
How do I get back to my administrator status?
Thanks.

Takes you to a different user?
As in there are two users with the same username registered?
Odd.
As a quick fix, you could go into phpMyAdmin, get into the user table and modify your admin username from whatever it is to something slightly different for a minute.
(example, change AdminUsername to AdminUsername33), and try logging in with what you changed it to.
wp_users, the first user. Look along and you'll see '7' as user_level.
Edit that table.
