Disappearing menu items

Are "Content Management, Site Building, and Site Configuration" all items in the menu or do you mean that only those are not displayed, but other items (like Reports, Help) are still displayed?

Did you try to disable (all) other contrib modules? (and if it works at some point, re-enable them step-by-step to see who's guilty)

In any case, please report back about the status of this issue. Thanks.

I actually ran into the same issue too. I checked the issues queue and couldn't find one that helped me out yet.

My site /admin/build/menu-customize/admin_menu is missing all the menu items, therefore nothing shows up on the admin toolbar menu (besides "Flush All Cache", "Run Cron").

I tried flushing all the cache, and rebuilding the menu, switching back and forth between the different module versions and nothing. Help!

If you look at the source, is the menu in the markup and just not displaying or is it actually gone?

Same deal here. I upgraded from 1.5 to alpha4 and I my menu totally disappeared. Then, I uninstalled and reinstalled (via /devel/reinstall) and the menu appeared, but only contained flush caches, cron, updates... all the stuff from the far left icond menu. Oh, and it did contain a menu item for 'Help'

EDIT: /admin/build/menu-customize/admin_menu contains only two links ion my case:

- Administer
|
`-Help

Same problem.

I just installed 6.x-3.x-dev and everything disappears. Will re-install 1.5 i guess.

I started getting duplicate error messages on line 2457 like others had claimed... so i went to my site/include/menu folder and looked at the code... and this pertains to my view that i recently created ( i think):

$title_arguments = $item['title arguments'] ? serialize($item['title arguments']) : '';
db_query("INSERT INTO {menu_router}
(path, load_functions, to_arg_functions, access_callback,
access_arguments, page_callback, page_arguments, fit,
number_parts, tab_parent, tab_root,
title, title_callback, title_arguments,
type, block_callback, description, position, weight, file)
VALUES ('%s', '%s', '%s', '%s',
'%s', '%s', '%s', %d,
%d, '%s', '%s',
'%s', '%s', '%s',
%d, '%s', '%s', '%s', %d, '%s')",
$path, $item['load_functions'], $item['to_arg_functions'], $item['access callback'],
serialize($item['access arguments']), $item['page callback'], serialize($item['page arguments']), $item['_fit'],
$item['_number_parts'], $item['tab_parent'], $item['tab_root'],
$item['title'], $item['title callback'], $title_arguments,
$item['type'], $item['block callback'], $item['description'], $item['position'], $item['weight'], $item['include file']);
}

so i deleted the view, even though the error messages were showing up when i go to edit my Content Types...

Anyway, this is why i originally uninstalled Admin Menu and tried upgrading. Don't know how relevant any of this is to anybody.

same here - updated from latest stable to alpha 4 and all menus except first one with favico are gone. Here is whats left...

I am getting only the menu bar with the favicon and no menu items whatsoever. I started having this just today after the menu has been working fine for months. No recent updates that I can think of except perhaps latest 6.x dev of jquery_update(?)

In the rendered page source I see:

admin menu css stylesheets loading...

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/sites/all/modules/admin_menu/admin_menu.css?e" />

,but no admin-menu-wrapper div

I will try a few things and report back if I have any luck with it...

In my case, I tried clearing the caches from another system that displayed the menu fine (faulty one was Win7 x64 with firefox 3.7a5pre nightly build - working one was WinXP with firefox 3.7a3pre). Then just to make sure I've emptied firefox's browsing history and I was back in business!

Hope this helps other people too, but I might simply have been lucky or something.

Had the same issue -- only Plugin Manager installed into the upgraded menu. I haven't popped into the code yet to write a solution, but I did find that when I navigated to admin/build/menu-customize/admin_menu, it only listed the plugin manager in the menu.

I added a custom menu item to this menu and refreshed the cache: the custom menu item showed up on the menu.

Looks like the module is just not migrating the menu items to the new menu properly.

Hope this helps whoever is working on this.

Subscribing.

I'm not using this module on one of my Drupal installs, but I'm experiencing the same issues with the disappearing admin menu. I can sometimes clear the cache to make the menu appear. But the display never seems to remain. I'm curious to hear how this is ultimately solved, as it may relate to the issue I'm having.
