Admin front page blank with text "Loading welcome wizard"

    When I login to my wp-admin the front page is blank except a short text “Loading welcome wizard”. Url shows http://…/wp-admin/index.php#welcome/steps/review. Menus are ok and the admin panel seems to be working fine except this front page issue. Website works fine.

    The problem occurred after I removed unnecessary themes including the default theme (Twenty Sixteen). I restored the default theme but it did not help. I also restored full backup of /public-html but it didn’t help either.

    Any ideas what could be the problem?

    I made following plugin and now the default welcome panel is skipped.

    function hide_welcome_panel() {
	$user_id = get_current_user_id();

	if ( 1 == get_user_meta( $user_id, 'show_welcome_panel', true ) )
		update_user_meta( $user_id, 'show_welcome_panel', 0 );
}

add_action( 'load-index.php', 'hide_welcome_panel' );

    However, the front page does not work properly yet:
    – Jetpack statistics panel is empty
    – Wp news panel contains just a text “Loading…”
    – Not possible to make any kind of modification to front page, i.e. move panels, change screen settings, open help etc.

    Any idea what could be the problem?

    I read somewhere that changing PHP config could help in such cases (not done before). I wonder, if somebody could explain shortly why this could help?

    As the actual blog/website works fine I hesitate to make any major changes without knowing why I’m doing those and what are the potential risks.

    For some reason there was a conflict with MOJO Marketplace plugin. After disabling this plugin, problem is solved and everything works fine.
