My guess is that while you were changing the email and password, you
also changed the permission level for the default project.
You can fix this by manually running a few queries on the database:
SELECT usr_id FROM eventum_user WHERE
usr_email='your_user_email_here';
Now get the project ID for the project that you want this user to be an
administrator under (usually 1 for the default project):
SELECT prj_id, prj_title FROM eventum_project;
Then use those numbers on this query:
UPDATE eventum_project_user SET pru_role=7 WHERE
pru_prj_id=PROJECT_ID_HERE AND pru_usr_id=USER_ID_HERE;
