So a weird thing just started happening. When I’m in the Wordpress dashboard and I click “Pages” in the left hand menu, it sends me to the home page of my website. All of the other menu links take me where they are supposed to. Any ideas what it could be?
Hey ken,
Thanks for posting in! Based on the information you gave, I have a hunch that one of the following is happening:
- Corrupted Admin Menu Link
- A plugin or theme might have hijacked the Pages link.
- Misconfigured User Role Permissions
- Your user role might lack proper access (but other links work, so less likely).
- Plugin Conflict
- A plugin (e.g., security, redirection, or admin menu editor) could be causing this.
- Database Corruption
- The
wp_usermetaorwp_optionstable might have incorrect admin menu data.
- Malware or Hacked Site
- Malicious code could be altering admin links (check for unknown plugins/files).
