Help! Update fine on site, but WP Admin messed up
Hi -
I backed up everything and have looked between my old folders and the new ones on the site and I just don't understand what happened. I upgraded to the newest Wordpress release. My site - looks fine so far. But the lefthand side of my WP-Admin is gone ... like all that navigation went bye-bye. Help! Please remember I am very new to all of this as well. Did I forget to do something simple? I just know I need my sidebar :-) Thanks Katrina |
Hi Katrina,
Are you referring to the Left Sidebar in the Dashboard of WP Admin. If so, it is the new "collapse menu" feature. There is a small right arrow button at the Left sidebar area so as to "expand" the menu. |
I don't see an arrow?
|
Admittedly, it is tiny (and if you have your dashboard set to Blue) and very pale. I would look down the very narrow left hand side, slowly, from top to mid-way....and it ought to be there! Hopefully.
Can you see the listing of Icons (which expand out upon Hover) the pale right arrow button is beneath the final icon. |
NOthing is expanding or working ... I'm not sure what happened but something went wrong. I'm attempting to rollback the installation so I can start fresh tomorrow.
|
Did you do Auto Update or Manual Update.
I always find Manual is best, often things can, and do, go wrong with the Auto Update. |
I did an auto update ... stupid me. Now I can't get it to roll back and I have no idea how to fix this. *sniffs* At least the site is still up. <--silver lining

If you've got backups before running the auto update then all is not quite so bleak. |
Live and learn, right? I do have a full site backup and a database backup in place. And my webhost is a sweetheart and looking into it this morning for me as well. :-)
|
And he fixed it! Yay!
