# Theme editor missing.

 * Hi,
 * I’ve got some stand-alone WP sites that I administer, as well as an old wordpress-
   mu installation that I recently upgraded to 3.2.1 multisite. In the stand-alone
   sites, when logged in as an account with Administrator privs, I have a menu option
   for Appearance::Editor, which lets me edit the various theme files from the web
   browser. In the multisite installation – also as an Administrator – I don’t see
   that menu option at all. Is there a way to enable it?
 * Note that this is not a problem with the editor _working_ which I found a lot
   of posts about when I searched, its about the menu option existing at all.
 * Thanks for any advice,

 * This is an old topic but I thought I’d post the solution since I was looking 
   for the answer to this.
 * In a network site (multi-site) the editor is located on the Network dashboard(
   Appearance > Editor).
 * The clue was you said “multisite installation” 😉 Thanks! 😛
