Admin menu scrambled after moving site

  • Hi there, I moved a site from one host to another and changed the domain name in the process.
    Everything went fine, the site is showing good, all pages and images are working.
    However when I log in as admin in the back-end the WordPress menu on the left is ‘scrambled’. The menu-items are double and the content is placed at the bottom.
    Here’s a screen shot: https://imgur.com/3RZ6RlO

    It’s like this in Firefox and Chrome and clearing cache doesn’t help (also other sites I have are shown just fine).

    What could cause this? Is WordPress itsself not complete?
    If yes, how can I fix this? How can I install WordPress over an existing install?

    Or is it something entirely different?

  • hello,
    It seems admin panel CSS(Stylesheet) in not load properly for admin panel.
    Please inspect your site and see the source code of the admin panel.
    I guess you admin panel style sheet links are not change while migrating.
    Please checkout that.
    thanks

    Hi ThemesGrove, thanks for your quick reply!
    That sounds logical.
    I could try and reload the style sheet through FTP maybe?
    Do you know in which folder it is situated and the exact name of the file?

    I tried something: I copied all the files from my back-up directory folder “public_html\wp-admin\css” to the site (through FTP). Then hit CTRL+F5 in the browser. That didn’t help yet…
