Thread:Project:Support desk/No access to Restricted Special Pages/reply (6)

If you added the line that Emufarmers suggested to your LocalSettings.php, that should have permitted you to access the Special:UserRights page - what exactly is there error that you are encountering? If you added the line, you should make sure that there is not another line later in the file that does the same thing but has "bureaucrat" instead of sysop. On your list of Special pages you are looking for the link "User rights management" under the section "Users and rights."
