Edit bar missing after upgrade to 5.5

Permalink 1 user found helpful
The edit bar that normally appears on the top of the page is now missing. I can access the dashboard by going towww.www.sitename.com/dashboard/... url. It worked before the upgrade. Did something change having to do with how to load the edit bar? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Wow... this question has been showing up a lot lately!

The toolbar has changed in 5.5. It no longer has certain buttons, since the dashboard is now more closely integrated with the front-end.

In 5.5, the file manager and sitemap buttons are no longer there, either.

I know that. How do I get it to re-appear?

I already wrote the answer here:

Anyway, this code should get it fixed:
<?php   Loader::element('footer_required'); ?>

add it just before the 'body' tag of your document

I'm having the same issue. I actually had that code in my theme. But it's still not showing up. Any help is appreciated:

I'm assuming you have both:
<?php   Loader::element('header_required'); ?>
and
<?php   Loader::element('footer_required'); ?>


If so, then some JS might be interfering with the design. Does it not show up at all? Try accessing the pages by their IDs, instead of the Pretty URLs.

If nothing works, let me know, I'll be glad to help.

Thank you. I should be clear, the actual bar is showing up, but not the buttons on the bar. If I access the dashboard, all buttons are showing up and it seems to work fine. I will attach a screenshot of how the edit bar looks in edit mode.

Thanks again for your help,
Dan

OK, did you check if any JS was interfering with the design? Also, if you have any add-ons installed, check if they're all compatible. Incompatibility sometimes renders the edit bar unusable.
Oh, it might also be a translation problem (if you have any other languages installed...)

Hi,

Just upgraded to 5.5 and I am having this problem. I have checked footer.php and header.php, both contain the required codes.

Can you please tell me what else am I missing?

Thanks a lot
