I created an Umbraco site with Visual Studio by creating an empty web project and installing the Umbraco 7.1 nuget package. During the set up portion, I created an Azure database. Next, I just created an azure website and deployed the code via Visual Studio publish.
Everything works fine on my local machine. The front end of the site seems to work fine on the azure website. However, I am not able to edit anything in back office. I can log in, but none of the button on the left hand side show up. See the attached screen shot.
This is my first experience with Umbraco so any help at all is appreciated.
