WordPress 3.2 conflicts with WP-Insert
Right after updating to wordpress 3.2 I was shocked.
Wordpress 3.2 does not have an admin menu. The dashboard is gone.
Everything I was able to see wast he admin bar that is visible from the frontend.
Hoping that that WordPress just can not exist without a good admin menu, hoping that they would never replace the awesome admin menu theyhad, with nothing, I started my investigation.
So.. How to fix the wordpress 3.2 missing dashboard problem?
Thanks to my Lampa ptr unghii I found that wordpress adminmenu css class was overwritten by a class with the same name, owned by wp-insert.
At least this is what happens in Firefox 5.0
An update of wp-insert plugin does solve this problem. Use 1.7.4
This is how I fixed it before the update of wp-insert was available:
I started looking for a div with the name containing “admin”, a div that should be loaded first in the html.
I found adminmenu and I saw that it was out of the screen. Firebug shows that adminmenu was also described in .css file of wp-insert.
If you find the some problem there are two choices:
a) deactivate wp-insert and search for an other similar plugin
b) modify wp-insert like this:
1 Go to /plugins/wp-insert/css/adminStyle.css
2 Replace the name of ‘adminmenu’ css class with ‘wpinsertadminmenu’
3 It would be expected to replace something else in wp-insert, for example, replace ‘adminmenu’ with the new one in every file where it is used. There is no need to do that. It works as it is.
If you notice any other similar problem, the fix should be as simple as the one above:
1) uninstall plugins one by one and see what is the one that causes the problem
2) search for “adminmenu” in all css files of the buggy plugin and replace it with something else.
3) report the bug to the author of the plugin.

DNA is not like C source but more like byte-compiled code for a virtual machine called ‘the nucleus’. It is very doubtful that there is a source to this byte compilation – what you see is all you get.
Is spelling a problem?
