 * I’m trying to add a new user to my multi-site. I had no problems doing so until
   the 3.6 upgrade. Now when I click “Add New” it sends me to the “Add Existing 
   User” screen (wp-admin/user-new.php)
 * My page **should** look like this: [http://codex.wordpress.org/images/0/0e/useradd.png](http://codex.wordpress.org/images/0/0e/useradd.png)
   but **doesn’t.**

 * On what page are you clicking ‘add new’?
 * What page do you expect to go to?

   it does not: [http://codex.wordpress.org/images/0/0e/useradd.png](http://codex.wordpress.org/images/0/0e/useradd.png)

 * After looking at the php file, I saw the if statement where “if user doesn’t 
   have access to add new users, to show existing page” which lead me to do some
   digging.
 * I can’t access the /wp-admin/network/ it says I don’t have sufficient privileges.
   Which this is the one and only account, so I don’t understand what is going on.
 * Also renamed the plugins folder in the FTP so it is not a plugin issue.

 * Solved it, I had imported the database and the old instances of the admin (different
   name) wasn’t changed.
 * PHPmyadmin:
    wp_sitemeta > site_admins > a:1:{i:0;s:8:”admin_here”;}
