 * I’ve searched the web a bunch but can’t find any answers for this. For some reason
   I am missing some menu items on my wordpress admin menu. There are 9 items, then
   a blank spot & then they start up again. The result is me missing the menu items
   for CONTACT & FLAMINGO. However, if I deactivate some plugins that have menu 
   items that are in the first 9, some of the ones the missing ones then appear.
 * Any insight as to why this is occurring?
    If the plugins are being assigned a
   numeric identifier for the same location, how do I fix this?
 * This is only a problem on the admin back end.
 * Re possible plugin conflicts: I don’t have this issue on my dev site which should
   have the same plugins activated or more.
 * thx

 * Have you tried:
    – deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this
   resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate
   them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s). – switching
   to the unedited default Twenty Fifteen theme for a moment using the WP dashboard
   to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

 * I’m brand new to WordPress and have inherited a multisite installation. I am 
   on 4.2.4 and multisite is enabled. The problem I’m having is that all of the 
   menu items are missing in the admin panel left nav – I just have Dashboard, Profile
   and Collapse menu.
 * From what I’ve read, that would seem to indicate that I am not an admin, but 
   I don’t think that’s the case; is_user_admin() is returning true. I’ve already
   disabled all plugins…anyone have any idea what else could be causing this?
