Plugin Error – “Sorry, you must be at least a level 8 user”

    I just installed a plugin called “Related Post” and because it’s my first time installing I get this error…

    “Sorry, you must be at least a level 8 user.”

    I AM able to activate the plugin I get the error when trying to adjust the settings for the plugin after it’s installed.

    I don’t understand what it means by level 8 user or how to correct.

    Was hoping someone with more experience might know how I can fix this to use the plugin.

    Thank you!

    James

    It seems as though everyone using the new WP 2.5.1
    is experiencing this problem, including myself, but
    I have found a simple solution.

    All you have to do is open the related-posts.php file
    and at the top you will see this code:

    global $file_path, $user_level;
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/../../’ .’wp-config.php’);
    get_currentuserinfo();
    if ($user_level < 8)
    die (“Sorry, you must be at least a level 8 user.”); // Make sure that user has sufficient priveleges

    To get it to work properly just change the user level
    value to “0” and you will then be able to run the script.

    So just change ($user_level < 8) to ($user_level < 0)
    and it should sort out the problem.

    I hope that helps,
    Tristan

    The title seems to be a big problem but it is not, i am talking about the error message you may experience in wordpress.

    The solution is very simple. I will not ask you for any donation for this tip or no need to pay for my coffee just complement me by bookmarking in your favourites.

    Ok, here is the solution.

    You must be administrator of the website or blog.

    Just log into admin area of your wordpress and change the password.

    Why the system says you must be the level 8 user? I dont know about this but simple answer is this that you must be an administrator of the blog. If you are not then you just request the administrator to do for you.

    This kind of error message is normally seen in wordpress platform.
