Do not shoot!!!
I have an install that I’m trying something out. I got over zealous for privacy and locked myself out. There is no home page. There’s no menu items. All set to members or managers only. I know what you’re thinking…..

But, how do I get back in? Silly me logged out not realizing what I had done.

Just add “/admin.php” to the base URL of your site. If you are still logged in it will take you there, if not it will take you to the old login page (login.php) Enter your details and you will get to the admin area where you can reset the menus.

Thanks. Can’t believe I did that. Glad it was simple. Visions of php/tables danced in my head.

There is more going on here.

This is the same thing I experienced on new installs. Using the admin.php to log in, I discovered everything on the new install had defaulted to “show to managers” except reports and resources. Reset the defaulted entries and all my issues disappeared too!

Not really, at least not in this case. Mac has been doing a lot of experimenting, and in her own words “I got over zealous for privacy and locked myself out.” She chose to set access for every menu option, even login, to logged in people only!

Your case it different, and certainly related to your other error reports. I can’t reproduce any of them so can’t provide any help. I have completed a huge number of fresh installs and have NEVER had the issues you seem to. The only obvious difference I can see is that I have never used WAMPP. I have used XAMPP and AMPP, both very successfully though.

I do however have two planned changes that might help:
1 – I want to select a limited number of modules that are enabled automatically on initial set-up, and leave the rest for admins to choose or to ignore.
2 – From this I can also then give each config page (menus, etc) a “reset” button to put it back to an “as initial set-up” state.

No date for completing these yet though.
