Locked out of WordPress install (2 posts)

    I upgraded my remote 1.5 install to 2.0 today, after a local upgrade went smoothly. I'm now locked out of my install - the admin panel is treating me as though I'm a level 0 user, despite me being logged in to the admin account.

    The database looks slightly different to my local install, in particular the wp_usermeta table. Rather than having separate rows for information, as my local 2.0 install does, it has some serialized data (but not much - it appears to just be a username and that's it).

    Any ideas?

    Sorted it - all it took was me updating my profile, whether I changed anything or not. I guess the upgrade process doesn't (or at least didn't in my case) import the user details into the new wp_usermeta table.

    Hope this helps anyone else who has the same problem!
