Edit Bar
PermalinkWhen you say you 'upgraded to the most recent version of concrete5' do you mean through the Dashboard or did you try to download and install (via FTP) the newest version because the newest version is 5.7 and it's not compatible with sites built in 5.5 or 5.6.
After you log in and are sitting on a page with the blank Toolbar, try hitting CTRL+SHIFT+'J' (in Chrome or Firefox) to open the JavaScript console to check for errors. An empty toolbar is almost always some sort of JavaScript conflict.
So what now? Is there a way to undo the update and just go back to what we were using before?
Have you tried the CTRL+SHIFT+J to see what errors exist?
Can you click on the JS tab to limit the error reporting to just the JavaScript errors?
You can also right-click anywhere on the page and choose 'Inspect Element' and then choose the 'Console' tab..
Attached is the screenshot of what comes up. Does this mean anything?
Your theme was pre-version 5.5 and so it's missing the call to the footer_required.php file where the toolbar gets created that was introduced in version 5.5..
You will need to add the following line in your theme file just above the closing </ body > tag.
<?php Loader::element('footer_required'); ?>
Thank you so much! You don't know how much time I have spent on this trying to figure it out.
Thanks for the tip about the homepage, I'll definitely look into that. Can't have a slow website!
tools.pingdom.com is very helpful in showing you where the slowdowns are on your page.
I have the same problem. The top admin/edit bar has gone from one of my pages.
Here's a link to the pagehttp://gotimetrekkers.com/concrete5/tour/test2...
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
