Posts missing from admin menu in wordpress

[ad_1]

I had someone edit my site a couple of years ago and they messed things up, but Im only experiencing the problems now.

For some reason, they changed every post to a custom ‘blog’ type and removed ‘Posts’ from the admin menu.

As you can see in the image:

Someone on Reddit helped me find a handy plugin to change the post type from ‘blog’ back to ‘post’.

But I have the problem that once they are changed back to post I can’t find them, because ‘Post’ is not in the admin menu.

Could anyone help me figure out how to add posts back to the menu?

I had a look in functions.php and found this, Im not sure if its relevant:

\——————————————————————————————————-

function true\_load\_posts()

{

if($\_POST\[‘query’\]==’blog’){

$args = unserialize(stripslashes($\_POST\[‘query’\]));

​

​

$args\[‘post\_status’\] = ‘publish’;

$args\[‘posts\_per\_page’\] = $\_POST\[‘posts\_per\_page’\];

​

// usually better to use WP\_Query, but not here

query\_posts($args);

// if there are posts

if (have\_posts()) :

​

// start a loop

while (have\_posts()): the\_post();

​

get\_template\_part(‘loop-templates/content’, ‘blog’);

​

endwhile;

wp\_reset\_postdata();

understrap\_pagination();

​

​

endif;

}elseif ($\_POST\[‘query’\]==’search’){

$args = json\_decode( stripslashes( $\_POST\[‘query’\] ), true );

​

​

$args\[‘post\_status’\] = ‘publish’;

$args\[‘posts\_per\_page’\] = $\_POST\[‘posts\_per\_page’\];

​

// usually better to use WP\_Query, but not here

query\_posts($args);

// if there are posts

if (have\_posts()) :

​

// start a loop

while (have\_posts()): the\_post();

​

get\_template\_part(‘loop-templates/content’, ‘search’);

​

endwhile;

wp\_reset\_postdata();

understrap\_pagination();

​

​

endif;

}

​

die();

}
