You Do Not Have Sufficient Permissions to Access this Page: Wordpress Adsense Deluxe Plugin Error
Just a quick post to solve the Wordpress Adsense Deluxe plugin error - "You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page".
I encountered this message since I upgraded my wordpress to 2.8.2. Adsense Deluxe is producing permission notification! Just a tiny info, Adsense deluxe is a wordpress plugin designed for Google Adsense , this plugin allows me to manage and put adsense code or javascript code anywhere in my post or template. I'm also using this plugin for my affiliate link so when I want to change the campaign I will just modify the link in Adsense Deluxe Dashboard.
Pretty sure I'm not the only user of this plugin so I believe some folks out there are also facing the same issue. If for some unknown force they stumble on this page, I hope that this post will help them. 
Here's how to get rid of the "You do not have sufficient permission to access this page" Adsense DeLuxe problem.
Step 1. Deactivate Adsense-Deluxe plugin.
Step 2. Edit the Adsense-Deluxe (Click "edit")
Step 3. Find the admin_head and change it to admin_menu
Step 4. Click "Update File" and then go to plugin to activate the Adsense Deluxe.
Update:
If after following the steps above you can't still edit your old adsense deluxe code, make sure that you move the adsense-deluxe.php from the sub-directory adsense-deluxe_wp_plugin_v0.8 to the plugins directory. Then delete the adsense-deluxe_wp_plugin_v0.8 directory and all of the contents. ( Thanks Carlo - detailed explanation for removing the old folder can be found here)
That's all. I thank you!

You’re totally right in thinking that someone else would need this, because I sure did. Thanks a lot!

I gotta say that you’re a freakin’ genius. Thanks for the fix-up !
August 28th, 2009 - 20:41
it’s work with me now
i use v2.8.4
thank you so much.

Hi Zalds,
I try your fix and now I can enter on the menu administration, but when I try to add a new AdSense Block, the same error appears again?
Any idea on that? How can I fix?
September 3rd, 2009 - 19:34
Thank you!! Google search brought you up as number 1 and your fix worked immediately.

Hi Zalds,
That worked great to get me into the Adsense Deluxe menu. However when I try to edit one of my existing Adsense Blocks I still get the same error.
September 7th, 2009 - 18:41
In fact I can’t do anything inside the Adsense Deluxe main menu now:
I can’t add new Adsense Blocks, I can’t delete old ones, I can’t edit.

@heavy,
what wordpress version are you using..?
September 7th, 2009 - 19:27
Carlo,
I have found the complete solution for us here:
http://www.thefilipinoentrepreneur.com/2009/07/20/adsense-deluxe-plugin-for-wordpress-2-8-1.htm
It still includes the changing of admin_head to admin_menu (thanks Zalds – never would have figured this out without you) but also includes one more step where you need to “move the adsense-deluxe.php from the sub-directory adsense-deluxe_wp_plugin_v0.8 to the plugins directory.
Then delete the adsense-deluxe_wp_plugin_v0.8 directory and all of the contents and activate it by going to Plugins link on the left side of your wordpress admin panel (The reason why you have to delete it is because you won’t be able to edit your adsense code once you get inside the adsense deluxe admin page).”

@heavy,
great! glad it worked for you.

Thanks So Much
September 15th, 2009 - 14:43
Awesome! Simple! Works!
Thanks!!
September 17th, 2009 - 21:25
Thanks a lot for the fix! I’ll link to this post when I post my next “Blog Updates” post.
September 21st, 2009 - 12:49
Thank you so much for this. I was about to delete the plugin altogether and manually edit all my pages. This post rocks!
September 27th, 2009 - 13:36
Thanks a bunch! This worked for me.
September 28th, 2009 - 14:22
found very useful !
October 6th, 2009 - 03:49
Can’t say thank you enough!! I fixed it following your directions.
Have fun!!

Thx man!

Did the trick for my Adsense Deluxe “You do not have sufficient permissions” blah blah blah problem! Thank you so much!
November 15th, 2009 - 11:02
Thanks a lot for this instruction! Really helpful for me.
November 18th, 2009 - 20:54
Thanks, it worked! Your explanation of what to do was very easy to follow, especially with your images. The only thing is you should probably mention that the line that needs to be changed is at the bottom of the script. I had to go through the whole script looking for it before I found it at the bottom.

December 23rd, 2009 - 01:00
Thanks, that did it.

I don’t see an “edit” link…can you please update this tutorial? I dont think it’s valid anymore for the new version of WP.
December 30th, 2009 - 19:52
Thanks, fixed it right away.

February 11th, 2010 - 07:56
You the man! Pity the original plugin download hasn’t been updated to reflect this.
February 23rd, 2010 - 15:11
Thanks for that… problem solved.
February 24th, 2010 - 05:07
I have been bagning my head against the wall for days on this problem. Thanks for the super short and super awesoem answer! You rock!
February 24th, 2010 - 13:58
Uh oh, I spoke to soon. I am able to access the options menu for this plugin but when I try to add in my Ad’s, it gives me the same “permissions” error. Any other suggestions? Currently using WP v 2.9.2
February 24th, 2010 - 14:10
Don’t mind my last comment. Heavy (up above) already gave me the answer. Apparently you only need to copy the adsense-deluxe.php file from the subfolder directly to the main plugin folder and then delete the subfolder in which it rested in.
All details can be found here: http://www.thefilipinoentrepreneur.com/2009/07/20/adsense-deluxe-plugin-for-wordpress-2-8-1.htm

Great ! Saved me ages, I had this plugin in my blog and when I upgraded to WordPress 2.8, it wasn’t working anymore and showing me that I do not have permission. I was looking for an alternate solution but then I found your article. Superb. Thank you for your help.

Nice one, thank you.

i love google Adsense, it enables me to earn money on the websites and forums that i have put up several years ago. if you got tons of websites, you can earn a lot from Adsense alone
