Missing Menu Items

chcPACT - May 23, 2009 - 12:35

I have searched the forum and was unable to find a solution for missing menu items. I have menu items under Site Building, Permissions, Users and various other Administrative sections where the menu items are no longer there. For instance under User Management I only have Access Rules and User Imports (user imports only shows the imports I have queued).

I am using Drupal 6.12 with CiviCRM 2.22. The CiviCRM Administrative functions all work.

I have cleared my cache as indicated in other threads but had no luck in correcting the problem. Others with a similar problem were given no solution and the thread just died.

I just went live three days ago and do not want to start over for this to occur again. So, if there's something I'm doing incorrectly I need to know.

Are you user #1?

Sounds like permissions.
Menu items don't show if the user does not have access to that function. That's pretty normal.

Please don't cross-post. "Administration menu" is a separate project - probably nothing to to with your issue.

Thanks. Didn't understand Administration Menu postings. Sounded like the correct section.

I am user #1. So being #1 I should at least be able to see permissions and make changes. Seeing that permissions are not available to me how do I correct that on either the backend database or through Drupal?

Being user #1 means it's

Being user #1 means it's probably not permissions problems.
User #1 can see everything, all the time. This makes it easy to miss things in testing sometimes ... but anyway, thst may not be the problem.

User #1 must have access to the permissions - under administer -> user management. /admin/user/permissions
Have you completely hidden the navigation menu block or something?

Thanks for responding...

I looked at the Permissions and I just checked Blocks. Unfortunately, its Administrator menus that are missing sections.

Would the Checkout feature/module have something to do with it if I was logged in from another machine? It always states that the content I am in will be locked until I navigate away.

Still searching for clues.

I also have this issue on one

I also have this issue on one of my sites. An example is the views link, views ui and views are both installed. I'm logged in as user 1, and yet the views link at /admin does not display.

Same problem

I had the same problem after upgrading from D5 to D6. My menus got messed up. In Navigation I hag duplicate Admin. sections but the Views was not in the Site Building. I also have two Primary Links, although one is blank. Anyway the Views menus was in the Navigation menu off the root, I just had to drag it the Site Building area. Now it appears in the Admin page.
