WP-Admin.php cannot be found

Hi,

you should use https://zestyswimwear.com/wp-admin to access the wp dashboard.

Hi. Perhaps I need to clarify: I also get this error when trying to access it it via https://zestyswimwear.com/wp-admin – the message is: “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”.
Also after logging in, it takes me to the home page with no dashboard access.
So in other words, I have no access to the Dashboard.

Hi,

https://zestyswimwear.com/wp-admin works for me, and shows the WordPress login page.

It looks like your “admin” user has lost his administrator capabilities. Or do you have a WordPress user roles plugin active?

As you can’t access the dashboard, you could try manually fixing your account, or create a new admin user. This is a bit tricky, but there are several topics with various suggestins.

Fixing the current admin user capabilities: see the last post in this thread: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/cant-access-wp-admin-sorry-you-are-not-allowed-to-access-this-page/

Create a new admin user: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-an-admin-user-to-the-wordpress-database-via-mysql/

Thank you. Yes, it was indeed the missing user roles which caused the issue. Just for interest sake – when you migrate your database from WordPress.com, there seems to be no wp_user_roles in the tables, so we copied it over from a fresh WordPress install. Voila – problem solved!
