I am posting this after looking at all of the messages on similar subjects, and not finding a solution.

I just upgraded my Gallery 2 beta 2 to vers 2.0.1, but I had this problem before the upgrade.
When I go to my gallery page and login as administrator, there are no links to actually do any administration.
The only links on the page are for "My Account", which shows that I am indeed logged in as adminstrator, and a "logout" link. There is also a link for advanced search. Nothing else.

I gather from the other posts on this subject that I should be seeing some kind of admin panel.

One last thing: my gallery is set to be Wordpress embedded, and the accounts are passed on from Wordpress.


Gallery version (not just "2"): 2.0.1
PHP version (e.g. 4.3.11): 4.3.10
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ):
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33): Apache
Database (e.g. MySql 4.0.11): MySQL 4.0.16
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD):
Operating system (e.g. Linux): Linux
Browser (e.g. Firefox 1.0): Safari 1.3.1 (and Firefox 1.5)

please access your g2 from standalone and not from wp. i don't know if your theme or wp disables the site admin link.
please use the matrix theme in standalone g2, then we can help.

I am accessing it from the standalone. But I can't change to the Matrix theme, because I can't get to the administration page. Is there some other way I can change the theme?

you can get to the admin section with:

yourGallery/main.php?g2_view=core.SiteAdmin

When I go that direction, I get this:

Error
An error has occurred.

Back to the Gallery

then you're not logged in (as admin).

please delete your browser cookie cache and try again.
(see the note about login issues in README.html for upgrades from older versions than beta 4)

Yes, I have gone through that step (several times). Something must be fouled up in the stored login info. Can I retrieve the correct login info from my database? Or would I be better off doing a clean installation, and migrating my photos?
