# Plugin ADMIN Disappeared?

 * We installed the latest version of WordPress at [http://www.GoblinNetwork.com](http://www.GoblinNetwork.com)
   by clicking the Upgrade Now button this week when logged in as the ADMIN.
 * When we did this, we can no longer pull up the Plugin section on the left side
   of the ADMIN section as the Administrator?
 * In addition, Authors can no longer POST articles or see their POSTS.
 * Anyone experience something similar? I’m sure it’s a PLUGIN conflict, but it’s
   difficult to fix when you can’t find the plugins to turn them off :-).
 * Thanks,
 * John

 * I just tried to publish an article as the Administrator and that didn’t work 
   either. Bummer! Probably have to backup the data and reinstall the site.

 * 1st – ftp to site or use host’s file manager to renmae`/plugins` folder
    this
   will deactivate them and let you view the plugin page hopefully rename folder
   back to normal and activate plugins one by one
