 * When I am trying to get into Network Admin, I get this error: Fatal error: Call
   to undefined function wp_get_current_user() in /home/cvay/public_html/wp-includes/
   capabilities.php on line 1281
 * Does somebody know how this can be solved?
 * Kind regards
    Anthony

 * All your plugins are off, I’m assuming. Switch to the default theme, Twenty Thirteen.
 * If that doesn’t work, reinstall WP core.

 * I came across this too.
 * Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user()
 * I network deactivated like 4 plugins, which I didn’t want used by all of the 
   other sites in the multisite network (3 total). Then I went into the root site
   and activated one of those plugins (easy coming soon) enabled it and saved it…
   and now I’ve run into this problem.
 * If I rename the plugins folder, I can get access to the admin. If not, I get 
   the error.

 * I fixed it….
 * Do you have Multisite Plugin Manager installed?
 * Try to disable it via FTP…maybe it will work.

 * This is why we tell you to deactivate ALL plugins.
 * Yes it sucks. I know :/ But when this happens, it’s how we debug.
 * Alternatly, of course, you could install a localhost instance with all your plugins
   and theme and see if you can reproduce it.
