• Hi All,
    My editor in the Appearance tab has got hidden suddenly. I have searched among the previliges and rights for the admin but couldn’t find any clue.

    Could any one of you please suggest why this has happened.

    Thanks

  • The theme editor in WPMU has always been hidden by default. If you as Site Admin would like to enable it, you can download a plugin which would enable you to do so. One just came out from Automattic – WordPress.com Custom CSS – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/safecss/

    or, you could create a PHP file with this code and upload to mu-plugins folder

    <?php
    add_action( 'admin_init', create_function('$pages', 'if(is_site_admin()) return remove_action("admin_init","disable_some_pages");'),1);
    add_action( '_admin_menu', create_function('$theme_menu', 'return add_theme_page( "Editor", "Editor", "edit_themes", "theme-editor.php");' ));
    add_action( '_admin_menu', create_function('$plugin_menu', 'return add_submenu_page( "plugins.php", "Editor", "Editor", "edit_plugins", "plugin-editor.php");' ));
    ?>

    Someone shared this in WPMU forums way back. Good only for WPMU Site Admins.

    Thanks for the reply.
    But I had added the code for enabling editor in the wordpress mu and its bee months I am using the wordpress but now suddenly editor is not visible in the dashboard.
    I will look into the link too. but is there any other possibility why this has happened.
    Kindly help.

    Thanks

    is there any other possibility why this has happened.

    What I’d check on is
    – whether the code to enable theme editor in WPMU is still physically in plugin folder in server
    – whether you’ve added any new plugins recently or upgraded one. Deactivate it and see if you have your theme editor back
    – whether you’ve uploaded a new theme (without checkiing for encrypted code) to WPMU, Check out the files in server.
    – whether you’ve been hacked

    Also, consider posting your question in WPMU forums as the volunteers there might know of other reasons to assist you.
