No Appearance Menu in 4.0.1

  • Please help, I am not a coder and after reading countless threads, I think the only way I can get the center align button for my blog to work is to go to ‘Appearance’ menu and try adding in some additional code?

    I have two issues: 1) center align button for blog posts not working and 2) no ‘Appearance’ menu showing up on left hand side?

    I am logged in as admin and on the left hand side I only have: Dashboard, Home, Updates, Posts, Media, Comments, Profile and Collapse menu.

    Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Did this just start happening out of the blue or was it after you changed something – like updating?

    Your site seems to be okay, but have you tried deactivating your plugins to see if that changes anything. If not, leave them off and switch to twentyfourteen to see if it’s related to your theme.

    No, I never had the Appearance menu. I just noticed it was missing today as I went to look for it when trying to resolve the center align button issue.

    I’m using Chrome and when I try to deactivate plugins, it gives about 10 different plugins to deactivate and unsure if I should deactivate all 10? I downloaded the twenty fourteen theme and my dashboard looks the same..

    Btw, just tried in Firefox and dashboard is same on that browser as well..

    No, I never had the Appearance menu.

    That’s odd indeed – did you create that site? Are you sure you are a full admin?

    No, I didn’t create it. Hmmm, now that you mention it, maybe I’m not a full admin. They gave me an admin login but it’s probably just for the blog portion. I’ll check with them.

    Thanks so much!

    Hi All,

    Actually i was facing the same problem my menu was not appearing so i searched and finally i got an answer.

    please follow these steps :
    Put this code in functions.php —

    <?php
    add_action( ‘init’, ‘register_my_menu’ );

    function register_my_menu() {
    register_nav_menu( ‘primary-menu’, __( ‘Primary Menu’ ) );
    }
    ?>

    if you want to create multiple menu then you can put these code in functions.php

    add_action( ‘init’, ‘register_my_menus’ );

    function register_my_menus() {
    register_nav_menus(
    array(
    ‘primary-menu’ => __( ‘Primary Menu’ ),
    ‘secondary-menu’ => __( ‘Secondary Menu’ ),
    ‘tertiary-menu’ => __( ‘Tertiary Menu’ )
    )
    );
    }
    Second step:

    Put this in header.php

    <?php wp_nav_menu(); ?>

    or
    if you’re using control on primary then directly add this below code to header.php

    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary-menu’ ) ); ?>
