 * Hi, as you know I am not a computer person so I am trying my best to fix things
   that are screwed up on my backend and it seems I have a real mess now? I open
   my backend or cart page I don’t know the right name and on the left side most
   all items are not showing up like yesterday it was showing Plugins and all the
   other stuff and now it is showing Dashboard and like 5-6 other things, everything
   else is gone? Please, someone, help me understand what happened.
 * Thank you,
    Rudy

 * Did you touch the any wordpress files because what you mention it feel like you
   did modify certain files.
 * Plus if you are creating a plugin, it should be the plugin that needs to modify
   to connect to wordpress and you should follow the guideline how to create a plugin.
 * This is the link:
 * [https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/)
 * The reason I know because my developer did that same thing and end up following
   the guidelines of creating a plugin.

 * The only thing I remember doing is working in the shipping fixing the shipping,
   any way to reload everything under the Dashboard?
    What is showing under Dashboard
   is listed below.
 * Dashboard
 * Comments
 * Contact
 * Profile
 * Tools
 * Collapse Menu
 * So I need all the other stuff so I can work on issues or have a WordPress person
   that really knows WordPress work on it.
