 * Hi,
 * I have just moved my test site on my local server to a live domain. All data 
   transfered over – I can see it all in the tables, but I do not have a link for
   forums and if I go to the plugin page and click Settings for the forums I get
   on [http://MyDomainName.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpforo-community](http://MyDomainName.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpforo-community)
   the floowing error message
 * Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.
 * Looking in the user tables at three of my logins I have GroupID 6, 3, 1 but no
   matter which one I log in with, I can not access the forums at the back end.
 * I have also realised that I can see them on the from of the site – only if I 
   am not logged in. As soon as I log in (at any of the above levels) all of the
   forums dissapear.
 * How can I get back into the admin for the forums?
 * Thank you for your time.

 * Ok, Just realised I can not see all of the menuy – only Forums, Member, Moderation
   when I am logged in with GroupID 6. When Logged in with groupID 5 I can not see
   any of the forum admin and of course GroupID 1 I can not see any admin for anything
   as it should be.
 * When I am loeed in and can see the forum admin in the back I can also see the
   forums in the front, but none of the other times.

 * Please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page and click on [Delete
   All Cache] and [Delete User Cache] button.

 * I don’t know your Group IDs, I can only say that you must be WP admin and wpForo
   admin. wpForo Admin usergroup is 1. And this is not enough to change, you should
   delete user cache after any change in table. User cache can be deleted using 
   this SQL:
    `DELETE FROM wp_usermeta WHERE meta_key = '_wpf_member_obj'` Make 
   sure you table prefix is correct ( wp_ )

 * I ran that sql and still can not see the admin. Rechecked my group and it is 
   a 1 – must hve been looking at another table or imagining things as been up all
   night trying to get this to work – and now the sun is coming up but if I can 
   get it to show on the front then at least I can get some sleep 🙂
 * Appreciate your help!
 * I am install a cache plugin as I have not done that yet. Maybe that will fix 
   it.
