Have you tried deactivating the plugins and switching the theme? Have you double-checked your .htaccess code?

In my case, I have no access to the administrator menu at all. ADMIN comes up with Subscriber rights.

@scottlowe are logging in with admin user name and password

@kenlin306 have you tried resetting your permalinks

I guess my problem is a bit different. I got no error messages. When logging back in as Admin the title says “Global Dashboard” and all I get is the dashboard icon, with no menu under it, and the Profile menu, which is OK. I tried my backup Admin but had the same problem.

So, I can’t even get in far enough to change anything.

for some reason you are logging in as a user and not as admin the only way to check that is in database if you are familiar with database. you will looking in wp_users and see who is admin.

Ok…GOT IT!! I deactivated ALL the plugins and everything came back. I followed these instructions:

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F

All I have to do now is figure out which one (which combination) is the problem.

Thanks guys.

YES, got it, too.

suppose I should deactivating all the plugins before upgrade
