Hi Esmi,
I followed your advice and changed “wp_capabilities” for my user_id exactly to your spec. No change.

I downloaded a new twentyten, as that is my theme, not twentyeleven, put that in with nothing changed except the styles.css file, still nothing in my dashboard except Posts, Media, Comments, Profile and Tools.

I looked through all the files and they all look normal to me. I wonder how to fix this?
Aside from my stylesheet and uploads, the site is all fresh files, and the DB has only changed according to your advice above.
It worked fine in the older version for a long time.

OK, thanks, will try after dinner.
Hope it works, if not I’ll be back for more advice later.
Many thanks for all the advice, WP is great when it works, but when you hit one of these odd bumps it makes you want to tear out your hair.

I just added 3.4.2, updated the database as per screen instructions, and still the short list of options on my dashboard.
I would like to repair the site, but can’t without my dashboard.

OK, followed all instructions, I now get the site to appear, but still the short list of options on the dashboard

twentyten-old does not do much for me

I renamed my current theme, Twentyten, and when I do that I get a blank white screen. Is that what you meant me to do?

I do have a fresh install with my old content folder added. It is 3.4.1
I tried 3.4.2 also.
I renamed the plugins folder to plugins.hold

My current theme is Twenty Ten-
I can’t switch themes because the dashboard does not give me that option.

I just updated to the most recent WP and now the dashboard is missing everything except: Posts, Media, Comments, Profile and Tools.
I can’t access anything else, so I can’t even deactivate plugins- any advice?
have a clean new install of the WP files.
