Unfortunately, Role Scoper did not work out for me, and I turned it off. But, although the readme file states that Wordpress functionality is completely restored after turning off Role Scoper, I'm experiencing a very frustrating phenomena: my admins cannot edit each others articles and pages (I have to turn Role Scoper back on for that to be possible, but that causes other problems).
How do I get the default WordPress behaviour back WITHOUT Role Scoper?

Role Scoper definitely doesn't permanently alter Administrator capabilities.
I already emailed you with some suggestions on diagnosing your installation.

Strangely that mail hasn't reached me yet. In the meantime, I found out that chaos is much greater than what I expected. Only admins and subscribers can log in at all, no access for contributors, authors and editors at all. If I turn Role Scoper back on, normal access returns, but all users except non logged in visitors and article authors can't view ANY articles.
I am trying to believe you that Role Scoper doesn't permanently alter user capabilities, but everything worked before Role Scoper was first installed…

It may be that another plugin is altering your default access, and Role Scoper was overriding that to ensure proper Administrator access. Did you install Capability Manager and take a look at your role definitions?
If any other permissions-related plugins are still active, please temporarily deactivate them to make sure they're not the actual culprit. In the past, the Exec-PHP plugin has caused some unexpected access restriction.

I've been turning various plugins off and on in order to diagnose where the problem is, and I've run into some very serious issue - after turning off smf2wp I've completely lost access to WordPress control panel from ANY of the existing accounts . Looks like it's going to be a long day of drilling in the database with phpmyadmin…

You might make quick work of it by deleting the active_plugins row from your options table.

Based on email conversation with bluealek, this appears to be somehow related to the MiniMeta Widget plugin. Several months ago, Role Scoper and MiniMeta got along well. I don't know what the problem is now, but plan to look into it soon.

I'm having the same problem as Bluealek. Did you ever find out the solution to this? I don't have the MiniMeta Widget plugin.

I never did find the time to pursue this and have not heard of any other instances of it. I don't have enough info from you to know if this has anything to do with Role Scoper. If you are suspicious but cannot deactivate it because wp-admin is inaccessible, just use ftp or your site's file manager to rename or delete the role-scoper folder.
