Is your site WordPress Multisite or bbPress? Super admin is for Multisite, and keymaster is for bbPress.
If you are in fact using bbPress, you need to add keymaster back to your user in wp_usermeta.
Use a database admin tool like https://codex.wordpress.org/phpMyAdmin or http://www.adminer.org/
Look at a current user who had keymaster status for the correct data string. It will be appended to the standard WP user data that designates an administrator.
Backup your database before making changes.
Hey I am really confused. I have the PhpMyAdmin open and I am under wp_usermeta. However, he didnt just demote me. He completely removed that profile. Can I have some more guidance?
Get an admin to add you as a new admin.
My new account IS administrator. however you cannot promote to keymaster. I NEED Keymaster to edit forums for some reason, and if I dont have access to it Ill have to somehow figure out how to get rid of them. How can I make myself ABOVE admin? You can’t promote to keymaster.
If you are an admin, than you have an entry in wp_usermeta. Check the usermeta of another keymaster and add the same data to your meta. You will have an entry in wp_usermeta; look for it.
There isn’t another Keymaster though
The only keymaster’s account was deleted by an administrator, due to an issue that arose
Go to phpMyAdmin, find the user_id from the wp_users table (let’s say it’s 30), then select all metas from wp_usermeta:
SELECT * FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id = 30
There you should see a record with meta_key = wp_capabilities
Edit this record and change bbp_moderator to bbp_keymaster, leaving everything else intact. (Assuming you assigned yourself a Moderator role beforehand).
In may case I had to replace this:
a:2:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;s:13:"bbp_moderator";b:1;}
with this:
a:2:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;s:13:"bbp_keymaster";b:1;}
