    Hello Everyone,
    I noticed a drop in traffic stats, so I looked at my site. I immediately noticed the main menu missing. The side bar is empty, but at the top of the header image I noticed the word FULL on the right hand side.
    I have not made any changes, but have updated a couple of plugins.

    Your advice would be great-fully appreciated.

    Hi Ashley,

    The main menu is still there; It currently shows ‘contact’ ‘disclaimer’ ‘privacy’. You can’t see it because the text is black, on a black background.
    To repair:

    1. Check the ‘theme-options’ to see if you inadvertantly changed things
    2. If that doesn’t bring the required result, add the following code to style.css of the childtheme
      .menu_bar, .menu_bar a, .menu_bar a:visited, .mobile_menu_bar a {
          color: #ffffff;/*white; change to meet your needs*/
      }

      If you don’t have a childtheme yet:

    1. Install and activate ‘one click childtheme plugin
    2. create the childtheme
    3. activate the childtheme
    4. Make the changes in the CHILDtheme!
      – copy php files / css-file(s) of the original theme [as required] to the childtheme directory and edit them as required.

    BTW: plugins are a well-known source of difficulties.

    1. Use FTP to access your site
      bv. http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
    2. rename all plugins by putting a ‘0’ in front of each plugin -folder;
      ../wp-content/plugins
    3. Check if the normal situation has been restored
    4. If so: one-by-one, remove the ‘0’, checking every time to see if the problem re-occurs.
    5. when the problem re-occurs, you’ve found the source of the problem; Delete and find a working replacement.
    6. alternatively: FTP:Delete; Then download and install / activate a NEW version and see if this works.
