 * I just moved a colleague’s install to a different host (Dreamhost).
 * The admin bar is now not showing. It’s not theme specific.

 * Is the admin bar enabled in his profile settings (Users > Your Profile)?
 * Have you tried:
    – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem?
   If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic
   plugin(s).

 * Try re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from
   a **fresh** download of WordPress.

 * Thanks. Already did that too, and no change.
 * Oddly, a log-out and log-in seems to sort it, so perhaps it was a cookie issue.
 * Hell, the whole thing’s so complex I’m surprised and glad it works as well as
   it does.

 * I also think it was a cookie issue. Glad you got it resolved.

 * Thanks. Yeah, I’m glad too – there’s a run of recent tech-stuff odd-happenings,
   beyond which i can explain as ‘my error’ which is tiring me.
