I have the 'Administration Menu' module installed, the one that provides a nice bar at the top of admin pages with drop-down menus of the tasks.

Before I installed CiviCRM Theme I had 'CiviCRM' as a top-level drop-down menu item as expected. After installing this module that drop-down menu item has disappeared and it only appears in the normal Drupal left-hand menu.

Anyone else noticed this?

I was very glad to find this module otherwise though, since my public-facing theme is no good for admin pages.
Cheers!

Sorry, in case it was ambiguous I am talking about this module:
http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu

...and moments later I found the solution:

- go to admin settings for the Administration Menu module
- click the 'Wipe and rebuild' button

I love it when stuff works

actually, this fix doesn't work. After a couple of page-loads the CiviCRM menu has disappeared again

in fact it has found its way into the "e-commerce configuration > store" menu, which is an odd place for it to end up.

also the CiviCRM item has disappeared entirely from my left-hand menu

(I haven't been hacking around with my menus I swear!)

I have seen this issue (#3) with CiviCRM and Administration Menu, and have never installed CiviCRM Theme. I think therefore there is an issue here but it is more generally with how CiviCRM is adding its menu to Drupal, rather than with this CiviCRM Theme module.

If this is still an issue, you should open an issue over in the Admin Menu queue, or move this one there.

Moved this to Administration menu, 6.x-3.x-dev. Could be theme related as well, though I see this issue whether the theme is Garland or Analytic.

Not sure if this is reproducible yet, but I too have noticed the odd behavior reported above, with CiviCRM basically just leaping around to random places in the admin menu, though firmly believe this is an issue with how admin menu is handling CiviCRM's menu (either that or CiviCRM has done their menu completely wrong and it needs to be redone).

Not sure how to word the issue exactly, basically can't seem to place the CiviCRM link in the administration menu correctly. It will hop around to random places or not show.

I never used CiviCRM.

However, make sure that you are using compatible module versions. I only know that some other CiviCRM developers rewrote the admin_menu integration for admin_menu 3.x, which makes dynamic menu additions easier.

The first comments in this issue were definitely talking about admin_menu 1.x - so you might have more luck by uninstalling admin_menu 1.x and installing 3.x.
