Appearance>Menus Menu Tabs missing

  • Hi,

    As the title would state.. My Menu Tabs are missing. There are supposed to be 2 .. a Footer and a Main. This happened and is the ONLY flaw I’ve noticed after I tried to create a duplicate (to create a dev environment) of a WordPress site.

    I’ve included a link to a screen shot of it:

    Anyone know how I could go about fixing this or give me some tips so I can see where something may have gone wrong?

    Thanks!

  • Sorry,but did you try to create Footer and Main menu yourself?

    Yes I did.. I think this has to do with a User privilege issue. I am going to contact my client and see if the menu is appearing for him. I will keep this thread open in the mean time.

    Thanks

    If you’re the admin you SHOULD be able to see/create menus. And if you’re an admin and you suspect it’s a user privilege issue, create a test acc on your site and log in using new credentials (just to rule that option out).

    Yes so I’ve confirmed this on an Admin account and it is not visible. I understand I should be able to see it, but I don’t.. This is why I am looking for some support.

    Thanks

    Using Phpmyadmin (or another MySQL management tool), first backup your database. Then navigate to your wp_usermeta table and locate the meta_key called “wp_capabilities” for your user_id. Change the meta-value for this record to:

    a:1:{s:13:"administrator";s:1:"1";}

    meta_value for “wp_capabilities” is already set to what you requested to change it to. I’m assuming that is the default?

    Thanks

    I’ve found the root of the problem and it was causing multiple errors.

    #1 – Not even being able to perform a simple SELECT query via phpMyAdmin.

    #2 – A plugin that we use as a Catalog for our products was not displaying the products (probably due to a large query function)

    #3 – And Finally, the menu tabs from being displayed.

    The solution? Although we are running on a Dedicated Server on HostGator(having virtually unlimited space), the tmp dir of the ROOT was maxed out at 4GB. Emptying it out was able to fix almost everything.

    Thanks for posting the solution. It helped us.

    Cheers,
    Mohan
