You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

After working hard to develop a site in Virtue, our company shelved it for a while. At the time, it was at version 1.7.x

We always had a problem seeing the wpadminbar in the header, and I thought, “maybe I should take this opportunity to upgrade, and maybe the bar will even be there!”

Followed these steps:

1. Exported the settings
2. Switched to another theme (twenty-thirteen) to avoid locks or whatnot
3. “Removed” the old theme by renaming its folder to _virtue_premium but maintained my virtue child theme as it was
4. Uploaded the new theme
5. Activated my child theme (which activated the new Virtue 2.6.4)
6. Imported settings.

A lot of the site was broken, but that’s sort of expected… CSS conventions change; layout manager changes… can’t expect a perfect transfer when the whole reason for upgrading a theme is to improve upon it!!

But what was not expected was when I click “Theme Options” in the wpadminbar from viewing the site, I get the error:

“You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

If I go to the Dashboard, I can then select Theme Options. But I can’t access it via wpadminbar.
