 * After upgrading the plugins menu is missing from the admin panel. Apart from 
   that wordpress seems to be working fine.
 * Also missing are the menus for Settings, Users and Appearance.
 * Have tried installing again but produces same result.
 * Any ideas what this could be?
 * Thank you.

 * Check the level of permissions for the login details you are using. Sounds like
   they are not Admin level. Go to Users > ..

 * Thank you Pierrick!
 * Yes, that was the issue. We have updated the permissions and it is all working
   again.
    Brillant.

 * I have full admin permission, and have updated to 3.3.1 (manual update so I didn’t
   lose my info) and my appearance & plug-in panels are missing. Originally someone
   else designed my site with a very customized theme, and as recently as 2 months
   ago appearance menu/themes/plug-ins were accessible and working. Please help!
   I need to edit my site and don’t want to start from scratch.
