After I put my store on live, discover the exp/imp feature gone from Admin/Configuration. I checked on those installed files they all are fine. "Export" is still in access and modify at Top Administrator! How can I get feature back?

This is currently OpenCart's biggest and most painful design flaw.

The admin menu was designed to be static, but when people started creating contributions, there was never proper support for dynamic menu items. So they started replacing the admin menu file with a custom version.

But if contrib A makes a custom menu
and contrib B makes a different custom menu
then one is going to replace the other. This is what happened in your case. You likely upgraded or installed a contrib with a custom menu that replaced the custom menu came with the import/export contrib.

To get it back you need to manually merge the menu files of all contribs that use custom menu files. A real pain.

In v0.8, one of the very first new features to be added is my dynamic menu system

I got it back and looks just it was. I look forward to see the new version v.0.8.
