Appearance and Widgets options missing from the WP Admin sidebar.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. Are you logged in as admin on the blog? Only admins can access the Appearance menu.
If that’s not the problem, try clearing your browser cache and cookies and see if you can see the Appearance menu if you use a different browser.

We all use the same login, including the person who created the blog back in 2010. She also does not have Admin access. We must not be logged in as Admins, but how can that be possible? There is one user ID and one password that we all share!
I have tried clearing cache and cookies.

I’m going to tag this for staff to follow up, as I can’t think what can be causing this. Please make sure you’re subscribed to the thread and be patient while waiting for their reply.

Bad plan! That’s a security risk.

Hi @cpplkids,
The cpplkids should definitely see the Appearance and Widget options on the dashboard here:

It should look like this:
Can you take a second look?

I, too, would recommend creating separate user accounts with varying permissions. It will help to maintain a higher level of security on your blog rather than giving everyone access to the admin account:

I realize where Appearance is supposed to be. Personally, I have another WordPress blog and I know what an Admin account looks like. Our shared account we currently use looks as though it is an Editor account.
Under Feedback, we have listed, in order: Profile, Tools, Settings. Then the collapse menu option.
We will create separate accounts once this issue has been resolved.

Sorry! I totally missed that. This should be all fixed up now. Let me know if you have any additional trouble.
