Module Admin Tab never appear (Blog Pro) SOLVED

I've just purchased blog pro from OC Extensions, and uploaded all files correctly.

Everything is there, from permission requests to the included modules I can install, apart from the one main thing. It is supposed to add a tab on the admin panel called BLOG, and it has not.

I seem to always have this problem with extensions that require to do this, is it a setting on my end that is causing this?

The install is here: http://www.oc-extensions.com/Blog-Pro and I followed it exactly (as I use non-default theme).

Its doing my head in, I've contacted them about this but I have a feeling its something on my end as everything is there apart from this admin "blog" tab so i cant actually install it.

This module was not cheap either!!

The only thing I have changed from default is the admin folder. I've changed it to a different name for security reasons, so I also changed the name of the admin folder from the module files. Would this cause the issue at all? Do I need to leave it as admin?

Solved it. This is something not mentioned in any module I have yet to see and I think is important people should know.

If you've changed your ADMIN folders name for security reasons, the XML file in the module has a file path with ADMIN in it. Change that to your admins folder name and it appears.
