Thanks, Simon, for the quick response and action.<br>
<br>
4 indicators under the indicator plug-in:<br>
<ol>
<li>Application Indicators</li>
<li>Power Management</li>
<li>Sound Menu</li>
<li>Messaging Menu.</li>
</ol>
Much better. My observations in the last 1/2 hour:<br>
<ol>
<li>The Audio Menu which was not visible before is now visible.</li>
<li><b>Still missing</b>: <u>Power Management</u> indicator.</li>
<li>Setting the overall "hide indicators by default" function now
works.
The change is visible immediately and Logout-login shows "No
Indicators" on Panel 0.</li>
<li>Clearing the "hide indicators by default" function now works.
The change is visible immediately and Logout-login shows the
indicators restored on Panel 0.</li>
<li>Setting the "hidden" switch on an individual indicator works.
The change is visible immediately and Logout-login shows the
indicator to be missing as expected on Panel 0.<br>
</li>
<li>Clearing a "hidden" switch appears to be like a dead action
because no change is immediately visible. <b>However</b>,
after logout-login, the reset did actually take even though it
was not visible before logout. Clearing the box should be
immediately visible even though logout-login is needed for the
clear to be in effect.<br>
</li>
</ol>
What can I do to assist? Further information needed? More testing?<br>

<pre wrap="">Dear all,
as Richard Elkins recently noted there have been problems with the indicators in 14.04, however we've prepared a fix meanwhile.
You can install the updated package that should hopefully fix things from this PPA (there are a bunch of other packages there too, just upgrade the xfce4-indicator-plugin package).
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/%7Ethad-fisch/+archive/test">https://launchpad.net/~thad-fisch/+archive/test</a>
(as always, you can follow these steps to add the PPA from the terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:thad-fisch/test
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xfce4-indicator-plugin)
Then restart your session and all your indicators that were missing before (most likely -sound and -datetime, if you have it installed) should be back.
Then please report your results here by replying to this thread. Ideally you'll have a system that hasn't been tempered with config-wise. (To make sure, you can add a new user. Unless you've tempered with system-wide settings...)
Thanks in advance!
Simon
