Block shows in edit but not in non-edit.
Permalink
I am trying to change a global block from embedded in a header to manually adding it to a global area in the header.
Old Code:
<?php $bt_autonav->render('templates/header_nav/view'); ?>
New Code:
<?php
$autonav = new GlobalArea('Autonav');
$autonav->setBlockLimit(1);
$autonav->setCustomTemplate('global_autonav', 'templates/header_nav/view');
$autonav->display($currentPage);
?>
New Code works perfectly in edit mode but does not show in non-edit mode. Old code works both places. I have cleared all Concrete5 and browser caches and I get the same. I also have similar global area code in the same header that works perfectly.
Global area code that works in same header:
<?php
$a = new GlobalArea('Logo');
$a->setBlockLimit(1);
$a->setCustomTemplate('global_image', 'templates/header_logo_image/view');
$a->display($currentPage);
?>
What am I missing ?
Thanks,
Warren Bell

I mis spoke on when it does not show. The global block does not show when I log out of the Concrete5 backend.
If something shows only when logged in, that often indicates that a required javascript file (typically jquery) isn't being loaded. The c5 editing UI loads a bunch of stuff for its own use, but only when logged in. Research about requiring assets so c5 knows what you need.
Another possibility:
Select the global area here and approve the changes.
.../index.php/dashboard/blocks/stacks/view_global_areas

Thank you c5dragon, that worked. I was not aware of the approval process.
