[wp-testers] Custom Post Types Are Not Added To Menu editor?

Hi again,

So I altered the code. It didn't seem to make any difference on my
sisters install, so I copied the code & pasted into my test install &
it works fine for me, I get both 'add an existing LMA post' & add an
existing LMD post' in my menu editor, but my sister doesn't (she only
sees the LMD one). This is the code we are both using.

function post_type_lma() {
         register_post_type('lma', array('label' => __('LMA posts'),
'singular_label' => __('LMA post'), 'public' => TRUE, 'show_ui' =>
TRUE, 'inherit_type' => 'post', 'capability_type' => 'post',
'hierarchical' => FALSE, 'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'lisamarieart'),
'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'author')));
         register_taxonomy('product_type_lma', 'lma',
array('hierarchical' => TRUE, 'label' => __('Product Type
LisaMarieArt'), 'query_var' => 'lma_product_type', 'rewrite' =>
array('slug' => 'lisamarieart-products')));
     }
     add_action('init', 'post_type_lma');

//Add custom Post Type for LisaMarieDesign Zazzle
     function post_type_lmd() {
         register_post_type('lmd', array('label' => __('LMD posts'),
'singular_label' => __('LMD post'), 'public' => TRUE, 'show_ui' =>
TRUE, 'inherit_type' => 'post', 'capability_type' => 'post',
'hierarchical' => FALSE, 'rewrite' => array('slug' =>
'lisamariedesign'), 'supports' => array('title', 'editor',
'author')));
         register_taxonomy('product_type_lmd', 'lmd',
array('hierarchical' => TRUE, 'label' => __('Product Type
LisaMarieDesign'), 'query_var' => 'lmd_product_type', 'rewrite' =>
array('slug' => 'lisamariedesign-products')));
     }
     add_action('init', 'post_type_lmd');

Any ideas, it's really got me stuck?

Thanks again.
