Advanced Access Manager
[resolved] Took all admin privileges away! (6 posts)

    I did one change to the "Editor" in the plugin settings, and when I saved, all my admin privileges are gone!

    Even access to modifying or uninstalling plugins is denied. I'm stuck with no privileges...as an admin!

    I've tried going into the database to change the privileges in wp_usermeta, but the code doesn't make any sense.

    'a:1:{s:13:"administrator";s:1:"1";}' is what I have. I even tried to change it to 'a:5:{s:13:"administrator";a:2' as was mentioned in another posts, but nothing.

    HELP!

    Just wanted to help others with the same issue and say that the Dev helped me out nicely on this one. Here's his response:

    Hi 3ric,
    Probably I did a mistake and gave ability to users manage Administrator Role. But I already fixed this on next release 1.3.1.
    I'm sure that you accidentally changed the Administrator Role. And I can be sure because this has been tested hundreds times.
    Use this file to repair your admin role - http://whimba.com/download/repair.php1

    Change the line name to repair.php. Put it on the root and access it with link http://you website]/repair.php.

    This should help.
