 * Hi, I recently moved and upgraded my WP installation. I then faced the dreaded‘
   You do not have permission to access this’ message when trying to login as admin.
 * I did this and now I can login : [http://www.dnawebagency.com/how-to-add-an-admin-user-to-the-wordpress-database](http://www.dnawebagency.com/how-to-add-an-admin-user-to-the-wordpress-database)
 * Unfortunately my now only admin account is a member account. How can I manually
   hack the user up to admin?
