Need Help ~ Admin Settings

[DrByte]

I'm looking at my DB and i see "admin_level" is missing. How do i add it to the table? I don't remember how to

If I give you the instructions to add that column back to the database, then I'm doing you a disservice, because it's HIGHLY UNUSUAL for that to go missing. It's ALARMING and indicative of much deeper problems which suggest you really need to do a much more aggressive cleanup of your site, both its files and its database.

Your database integrity is suspect. Applying bandages is NOT enough.

Hence my asking many questions to get the bigger picture.

If you wanna go your own way and put bandages on, fine. But don't come here crying for support when other things are broken too. Sorry, that may sound harsh, but it's that important.

Um ... so what should I make of your prior posts which talk about addons you HAVE installed?

and another about adding a blog

That was all removed. I created a blog on a sub domain.

So if there's nothing on your site that needs preserving, what's wrong with starting afresh with a brand new install that you can be confident is clean?

Im thinking it was removed by someone from my hosting company. When i first started with them i was moved to a faster server and they forgot half my site and wound up taking a few weeks for them to get everything on the same server. I'v paid someone to check out my site to make sure its malware and virus free.

It doesn't make sense that your hosting company, or anyone for that matter, would remove just one column from a database table. Extremely peculiar.

They wouldn't. I'm with the same host as the OP, (with multiple sites), and generally speaking they know what they're doing.

I don;t think they removed it. It was most likely me I just dont remember doing it. But JustHost has some people that arnt smart. When i first started using JH as my hosting company i bought the faster server. 2 weeks later i find out im still on the "slow" server and i ask them to move my site over to the faster server. Witch they did but wound up messing alot of things up. Then 2 weeks ago i find out my sub domain was still on the "slow" server they moved it to the faster server then my sub domain no longer worked anyways every things fixed now. Im new to shopping carts but i know alot about other things I thank everyone for their help!

Forgive me for such a long post. I currently use v1.3.9h and I paid a company to install the following add-ons to my store and now "admin settings" is showing the same error as the first post. Could any of these add-ons cause that problem? :
