    Hi Krzysztof,

    You mean the whole News section in WP admin area?
    Are you of an administrator role?
    Did you change anything in user roles or capabilities in your install? (using plugins like User Role Editor)

    Yes, whole section. Yes, an administrator. No, I didn’t change things like that, but I installed several other plugins, which however don’t deal with roles etc. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice the very moment when the section vanished.

    Krzysztof, I think one of the plugins must have changed something when it comes to capabilities.

    I suggest 3 things, tested one by one.
    1. Deactivate News Manager and activate it again.
    2. Install user role editor to check if you have ‘publish_news’ capability.
    3. Remove (or comment) line 581 in news-manager.php that’s responsible for news menu position
    'menu_position' => 5,

    Hope this helps.

    Tip number 3 worked, thanks a lot.

    Sadly, I’ve encountered this problem again, but this time removing that line didn’t help.

    Did you try disabling other plugins?
    Does that happen to one theme or any theme you have running?
