Magento admin extension fails to show in live server menu bar - magento

I have recently built my first Magento extenstion.
It involves adding a new menu item in the admin area and works perfectly on my development server.
On the live server however, the menu bar item fails to display.
I am pretty sure that all the files have been copied over and I have refreshed all of the cache.
I have checked the system > configuration > advanced area and the module is listed in the disable section.
Are there any other settings/configurations I need to check?

Did you setup your menu with ACL roles? If so, does your user have the correct role?
Assuming the above is true, the Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Page_Menu class is responsible for rendering the menus. I'd start by adding some temporary debugging code to determine why this class is skipping your menu. (is it skipping it, or does it not know about it? If it doesn't know about it, why isn't your system reading it from the config) etc. etc.

Dockbar Changes in liferay 6.2

Can anyone suggest me, which file is responsible for dockbar menu changes for admin user and other user in liferay 6.2 ?
I made changes in \docroot\META-INF\custom_jsps\html\portlet\dockbar\view_user_account.jspf file for the dockbar menu,
but changes is reflect only Guest user dockbar menu.
Please suggest me file where the dockbar menu comes for admin user and
other user.
You found the correct directory - dockbar's jsps are in Liferay's html/portlet/dockbar folder, however there are 16 jsps in there and you either picked the wrong one or edited within some conditionals that only display for the guest user.
They're all overridden the way you're doing it already in your hook. Which file exactly contains the markup that you need to change you'll have to find for yourself. Same with the location in the file to change. Especially as you only state that you need to "make changes" - not sure if you add more options, change existing options, reorder, or just change the DOM.
in dockbar exist public page and private page .you can manage dockbar in portal_normal.vm .
in this vm file you acces dockbar whit #dockbar() and put condition for show or hide dockbar.

magento mutiple shipping address not displaying on front end

I am working on an existing magento project. Previous development team used custom design. I have enabled multiple shipping address from admin side, and cleared all cache. But am not able to see multiple address option in checkout page.
Since you have custom design, if the previous development team didn't override the default magento theme, you can switch to it from System > Configuration > General > Design
If they have written their changes directly into the default theme, then you can just rename the base/default (from design and skin) into something like custom/default and copy/paste the base/default from a Magento archive matching your version.
This way you can see if shipping to multiple addresses works or not. If it works then it means it was removed from the custom design - you have to check the design/skin files.
If it doesn't work then either you didn't configure something, or the code was overriden you have to check files under app/code/local (code/community or worse case code/core) .

admin menus Joomla 3.3.1 disappeared

All admin menus in Joomla 3.3.1 suddenly disappeared!
I worked at the site's user groups and adjusted a little CSS using firebug, when I suddenly lost all admin menubar, buttons / content in the subheader and content in the header
None change in the core files and no errors are shown
You can see the image....
This is not a programming issue. It's hard to know which exact change created the problem but if you are playing with user groups most likely you accidently put yourself into a group which does not have permission to see the menu module . Go to the module manager (add index.php?option=com_modules to the admin url.) and change the settings on the admin menu module to public ... then check to make sure that your user group has permission to see "special."

Virtue Mart Joomla

I have my shop showing this URL when a user checks out.
index.php?page=checkout.index&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65&redirected=1&Itemid=65
for all the steps it does not show the checkoout_stage as i would expect below in the URL hence it ends up using the home template with the layout distorted
What i expect instead:
index.php?page=checkout.index&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65&redirected=1&Itemid=65&checkout_stage=1
index.php?page=checkout.index&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65&redirected=1&Itemid=65&checkout_stage=2
index.php?page=checkout.index&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65&redirected=1&Itemid=65&checkout_stage=3
index.php?page=checkout.index&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65&redirected=1&Itemid=65&checkout_stage=4
One common mistake that will give you this type of problem is not having a menu item for Virtuemat or the VM module published somewhere. You have to have a menu item for VM, even if its in a hidden menu, same with the VM module. Even if you put it in a hidden position you still have to have one and it needs to be published.
If that doesn't do it, we need a lot more information before we can help.

Subtotal, Shipping, Discount and Grand Total Missing in Magento

Hope someone can point me in the right direction. I am not a Magento developer but am having to fix my site after my "developer" left me with most of the work to do.
Currently in my checkout screen i'm not seeing any values other than that of the actual product item value - no subtotals, discounts, shipping or the grand total. They all appear ok on the emails that are sent though (luckily).
I'm not using the default Magento package but from what i can see all the .phtml files seem to be there in the base directories and are not in my new design directories - so i would have assumed all would work ok. But alas, no. Is there anywhere i should be looking/tweaking etc etc? Have googled about as much as i can but to no avail.
I'm sure it must be something simple (!?) if all appear on the emails ok. Any ideas would be great!
I realise this is fairly old now but just in case anyone else comes across this I had this problem and for me all I had to do some enable the Mage_Tax module in System > Configuration > Advanced
It is difficult to answer your question without more insight, but here is what can be a starting point:
Login to your shop's admin panel.
In System menu click on Configuration.
From the Current Configuration Scope box select your Website.
Now in the menu on left-hand side under Configuration > Advanced (almost to the bottom of the screen)
Click on Developer
Now in the main panel, click on Debug.
For the field Template Path Hints select Yes.
Now reload your website (front-end) and you will see from which template is each part of the page being loaded.
Also if Magento's cache is enabled, you will need to clear that. I would suggest that this cache be disabled during development and/or on non-production versions of your site.
