Wordpress Categories 2.3 - You don't have permission to do that

    Hey I just installed wordpress 2.3 twice now and I cannot create new categories.

    When I try it keeps saying "You don't have permission to do that".

    I have tried changing the permissions on the files below to writable 666 and 777, but it will not let me create new categories.

    /wp-includes/categories.php
    /wp-includes/categories-template.php
    /wp-admin/categories.php
    /wp-admin/js/categories.js

    Any help would be greatly appreciated :cool:

    Thanks

    sorry for the late bounce but i found this forum by a search in google & i have the same problem.
    i have try the fix + the plugin and none of theme helped me.
    i still have this problem.
    i'm considering to upgrade to the new version 2.5.1 but don't want to upgrade just now.
    any suggestion about fixing this error?
