PROBLEM - CAN’T ACCESS MAIN ADMIN NAVIGATION MENU

Ghost (Pro) hosted site admin at Ghost

The main left-hand admin navigation panel has disappeared in both Apple Safari Version 26.0 (21622.1.22.11.14) and Chrome Version 140.0.7339.133 (Official Build) (arm64) running macOS Tahoe 26.0 (25A354) on Mac M1 Studio.

Dragging right from left of window using Bluetooth and wired mice intermittently reveals the main navigation menu but is unreliable and incorrect behaviour.

Tried system reboot and clear browser caches. Not effective.

Yeah, that gave me conniptions for a few minutes last week. What you need to do is hover to get the side menu to pop out, then while it’s out, hover that small grey bar and CLICK it when it turns into a “>”, and that’ll pin it in place.

Maybe that’s a Mac native behavior? It totally had me stumped for a while.

Thank you very much Cathy.

That has worked perfectly.

Just one comment for anyone else experiencing this issue. On my Mac version that “>” ringed in Cathy’s kind reply appears as a very pale “|” vertical bar that only changes to “>” on hover.

We live and learn.

Thanks again Cathy.
