What’s going on with my dashboard…

  • When I am in my dashboard view it now does this funky thing where my Visit Site button now is on top of my Write and Manage Links – I don’t know if it happened right after my 2.5 upgrade or not, but it’s frustrating. Is there a way to move it??

  • got a screenshot?

    Sounds like a CSS position issue. Open wp-admin/wp-admin.css. Out of the box, that element should look like this:

    #wphead #viewsite {
	position: absolute;
	margin-top: 12px;
	margin-left: 10px;
}

    Or something else could effect it. Upload a fresh copy of wp-admin.css from the zip file.

    Thanks, I wish I could get a screen shot to post here, but I don’t know how.

    I reloaded the wp-admin.css file through the ftp server and I still have the problem. The View site box on the dashboard is just sitting in the wrong place.

    Sorry I’m such a novice, do you think it can be fixed?? Thanks

    Have you compared your dashboard in different browsers?

    Try changing margin-top to something smaller, say 5px and see if that makes a difference.

    If all else fails, I would download WP again. Unzip it to a folder other than the present copy on your computer. Completely delete the wp-admin folder on your server and replace it with the wp-admin folder from the new copy.

    Thanks Buzz! U Fixed it! I had the same problem after I installed 2.5

    Opened up wp-admin/wp-admin.css
    Changed the view site class to :

    #wphead #viewsite {
    position: fixed;
    margin-top: 12px;
    margin-left: 1000px;
    }
    save it and upload Done! the view site button will move to the right corner.
    ***delete the remote wp-admin.css file before you upload

    Hi Guys.

    When I open my dashboard the only navigation tab I have on the right hand side is “profile”
    Where are all the other tabs?

    Thanks
