Cannot access admin pages after old backup restore

Thanks a lot @Mike_Taku and @Ed_S for your quick and relevant replies!

My user was indeed only moderator, and not administrator! I was able to change the permission of my user using the console and then see all the admin settings.

While my initial misunderstanding of the discourse roles is the cause of my issue, the symbol displayed in the user tab could be different between admin and moderator. It’s only when the cursor is hovering over that symbol that a tooltip displays “Administrator” or “Moderator”.
