Peter,

We are unable to reproduce. Please, explain, step by step (briefly), how to 
reproduce the behavior. Also show the ntopng configuration used, the page with 
missing menu items, and also check the HTTP reqs/responses (you can use the 
browser inspector) and check for the presence of cookies.
