Hello Peter,
I can’t really debug your issue because I can’t access your Admin Dashboard and see for myself. However, the first thing that came to my mind was that maybe the button to add a new plugin or a theme is hidden with a CSS style. Try inspecting the HTML on the Dashboard, seeing if the CSS class .add-new-h2 (the button’s CSS class) doesn’t have a property such as display: none.
I can give you access to the admin
Peter
As these forums are public and I don’t really recommend giving admin credentials publicly here, better would be if you download the page through your browser (right-click and Save As), upload it somewhere and let us download it and look at it.
there are no edit buttons in admin to look at html or css
contact me through the website at [redacted]

No edit buttons needed — just download the admin page as html through your browser. It will also download CSS styles in a folder. Zip it everything and upload somewhere.

Thanks for the zip. Well, it shouldn’t be an issue with the CSS. That’s working fine for me. Do you have an administrator role? I’m sorry but I’m running out of ideas here. Never came over such an issue. From the screenshot of installed plugins you published above it seems like you don’t have any malicious plugin, which could remove that buttons, installed so that should be also okay. Hmm..
Yes I am the owner and admin on the site.
I checked the WP config and found this: is it a problem?
// double check $base
if( $base == ‘BASE’ )
die( ‘Problem in wp-config.php – $base is set to BASE when it should be the path like “/” or “/blogs/”! Please fix it!’ );
I’m checking my wp-config.php file and I see no such code, as you posted, there. The WordPress you have is a vanilla (= the original) copy of WordPress or some kind of modified version? I know you said you are running on 4.1 but I can’t really find that piece of code in my files.
is there any more help that you can provide then?
Unfortunately, nope. I’m out of ideas.
