Not Admin

I am not an admin in the forum on my own site. I don’t know how this happened… we did migrate an old phpbb2 site to SimplePress, but I don’t remember seeing this message before. The site has been under development for months. 

I am receiving this message:

 

Please note that while you are a WP admin, you are not currently an SP admin. By default, WP admins are not SP admins
Contact one of the SP Admins listed below to see if they want to grant you SP admin access on the SP manage admins panel

However, that account does not exist in my list of users, so I can’t sign into it to make any other admins – even myself. 

What can I do to make myself an admin? I own the site. 

Thank you.

well, there must be a user by that name…  but you can make a db change to grant it to your user…
