    Not all plugins have an admin menu. Which plugin are you trying to install?

    Thanks,

    Hi Savva’s,

    I would like to install the plug-in: “File Manager” and a few more plug-ins. And after every installation (+ activation) of different plug-ins, the problem I encounter is that they are not visible in the admin menu anywhere. So I can’t start them up.

    Niyas Sikkandar (@niyaswp) advised me to change the file “wp-config.php” by changing :define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true); and define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_MODS’, true); to define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, false); and define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_MODS’, false);

    But I have no experience in doing that. I suppose it is risky because I am not an IT’er.

    Do you think this is the only solution?

    I have already disactivated several plug-ins, but the problem stays the same.

    My website (www.ligadebarloke.be) is currently working fine but i would like to modify it further and give it a modern look by using plug-ins.

    I’m working with Theme Rookie — Sportspress. as my website is an information for all soccer players in our league (indoor soccer).

    BTW. thank you for helping out with “loss condition” in an earlier topic.

    grts.

    Can you try to temporarily switch to a different theme like TwentyTwenty, so as to check if your issue is theme related?

    Thanks, Savvas

    Usually is safe. But it is always better to have a working backup available. Or you can clone your site and try there.
