Wrong privilege = locked out!

HELP! I’m getting ready to launch a site for a client and I accidentally changed their privilege to Staff Writer before I made an admin account for myself. Now I can only log in with their restricted access and I can’t put any final touches on the site or double check final details.

Please tell me there’s a way to reset the privileges :(

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Never mind. I fixed my own problem by following Mary’s advice in this post: http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=4400

Thanks Mary!

If you go into the database and look in the txp_users table you can check the “priv” in there for all users.

Damn it. That’s twice in 2 days. I’m going to bed. ;)

Yep, I just noticed that about two minutes ago and fixed it. Thanks though :)
