I'm doing some work for a new client (non-tech, their former tech person left). Their version of Wordpress is 4.3.2.
I have an admin account and I'm unable to edit existing posts. I can create new ones and edit those, but I'm unable to edit existing posts.
The edit links don't show and if I put in a url I construct myself like (/wp-admin/post.php?post=1375&action=edit
)
I get this error message:
You are not allowed to edit this item.
I have full access to the filesystem, database, etc. how do I fix this issue so I can edit existing posts through the WordPress UX?
I see the user Role Editor plugin is installed.
I activated it and updated it. It shows that administrators have full permissions.
