Latest version removes the PLUGINS admin menu

    The latest version of the plugin removes the Plugins menu from the ADMIN menu controls. I can still get to the plugins by going wp-admin/plugins.php. This plugin needs to be tested before it is released.

    I disable this plugin, and my Plugins menu returns. I enable this plugin, and my Plugins menu is gone again. This is not an access problem, not a priveleges problem, not a Multi-site problem. I am running this on a plain vanilla wordpress site.

    Please fix this problem and issue an update.

    I found the offending code:
    directory: zerobounce\admin
    File: class-zerobounce-email-validator-admin
    Line: 175

    add_menu_page($this->plugin_name, 'ZeroBounce Email', 'administrator', $this->plugin_name, array($this, 'displayPluginAdminDashboard'), 'dashicons-email-alt', 26);

    Please REMOVE the position “26” from the add_menu_page. Unfortunately this is conflicting with the plugins.php menu entry on my site. WordPress recommended best practice is: use a number higher than 66 or apply no position at all. As soon as I changed this code line, everything came back to normal, and my plugins menu returned. NEW CODE Below:

    add_menu_page($this->plugin_name, 'ZeroBounce Email', 'administrator', $this->plugin_name, array($this, 'displayPluginAdminDashboard'), 'dashicons-email-alt');

    Thank you

    I’m sorry you feel you need this information.
    1) I already did the debugging, there were no conflicts, and no issues with other plugins
    2) I already tested with a vanilla install of WordPress 6.4.3
    3) the plugin version is the LATEST release from ZeroBounce v1.0.21
    4) this has already been tested and verified across multiple websites.

    I already gave you the line of code causing the problem.

    I already gave you the fix (removing the “,26” menu order from the add_menu_page call).

    Please fix this function, it takes less than 30 seconds to fix the code and issue an update.
