 * Help! I keep getting the following error:
 * `'You do not have sufficient permissions to access this admin page.`
 * I have checked the details in wp_users and wp_usermeta tables match those in 
   wp-config.php. I’ve reset the wp-capabilities value to {s:13:”administrator”;
   s:1:”1″;}. The error still occurs.
 * This is a restoration of a website backup – everything seems to be okay except
   accessing the back-end.

 * `a:1:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;}`
