   Hello

   Thanks for your great plugin.

   Yesterday, i have activated magic fields wordpress plugin in one of my blog.

   After activated, wordpress admin settings menu disappears. Take a look on this screenshot.

   But setting menu URL http://www.mywebsitesite.com/wp-admin/options-general.php is accessible by manually.

   Is it plugin compatibility issue? How can i resolve this issue?

   I have it whereby my Pages Admin panel has vanished! I'm a little too scared to deactivate magic fields in case any of my settings are lost. I have to access the Pages by going into the Dashboard but the menu item for Pages in the left menu is no longer visible.

   That's odd because I don't even use that plugin.

   I optimised my WP database and the Pages panel appeared once again. You may want to try that.

    I tracked down the bug in Magic Fields. Magic Fields alters WordPress' $menu global without changing the $_wp_last_utility_menu global, which causes the "Settings" menu to disappear whenever a plugin (such as SEO Ultimate) calls WordPress' add_utility_menu() function.

    Until the Magic Fields author fixes this bug, you can add this code after line 375 in magic-fields/RCCWP_Menu.php:

    global $_wp_last_utility_menu;
    $_wp_last_utility_menu += $offset;

    In context, it'll look like this:

    foreach ($menu as $k => $v) {
    if($k > 5) $new_menu[$k+$offset]=$v;
    }

    global $_wp_last_utility_menu;
    $_wp_last_utility_menu += $offset;

    $menu = $new_menu;
    RCCWP_Menu::SetCurrentCustomWritePanelMenuItem();

    Hello John Lamansky

    Thanks for your efforts to find the problem.

    But when i posted the same issue in magic fields support, magic fields developer who have replied here..

    https://github.com/hunk/Magic-Fields/issues/130#issuecomment-1550846

    Which one is correct?

    Magic Fields breaks WordPress's add_utility_menu() function, which WordPress provides for plugins to use. The Magic Fields author's solution is to make SEO Ultimate and other plugins stop using add_utility_menu(), whereas my solution is to make Magic Fields stop breaking the function.
