• hi there

    i know there is a sticky on this.. i’ve read thru and read back thru all the posts and have tried to find the plugins that others have deactivated….no luck

    the only plug ins i have are ajexed wordpress and flashfinder…

    i have gone in to my ftp to see if i can find a plugin that is the dropdown menu but all i’ve found is the awp-adminpanel.php….

    i’m very new to this and up until yesterday i didnt’ even know that there was a sidebar in the dashboard.. i’ve never had one and i’ve recently uploaded a prophoto template and realised that i should have it there so i can change to the other prophoto template.

    i’d really love some help.. i am quite stumped..

  • If you are using Version 2.7 you have a left side navigation feature, but not at 2.6.3.

    Hey tin…go to the following url on your blog: http://blogsite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php (replace the domain name with your blogs’)

    Do you have the “Lighter Menus” plugin installed? Remove it!

    I had the same problem after using the “Auto Upgrader” to version 2.7, and then I couldn’t see the left menu. That fixed it.

    Hope I’ve helped!

    truantology,

    I tried going to : http://blogsite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php (my blog. But, I got the following message: “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

    I have seen this “Lighter menus” plugin referred to in other posts on this same subject. But, I know for a fact that I have never installed any plugins with that name. In fact I have never heard of that plugin and have no idea what it is for.

    I have tried disabling all the plugins(including changing the value in phpMyAdmin. I have upgraded to WP v2.71(from v2.7), downgraded to WP v2.6, and tried deleting my template.

    None of the suggestions I have found have helped. I still have no appearance, plugins, pages, comments or users links on the menu. This happened after making a normal post. no new plugins, upgrades, or theme changes(before the error). No prior problems with WordPress on this blog(2+ years) during previous releases.
