Front end edit button is not loading on some pages

chrisgdclarke

Dear Team

See summary here: https://issues.joomla.org/tracker/joomla-cms/18262

Steps to reproduce the issue
1. Log in as super user on Joomla Website (frontend)
2. On some web pages the 'edit page cog' (top right position) does not appear.

Expected result
The edit page cog should appear on every page.

Actual result
Some pages the cog appears and on some the cog does not. There is no code between:

and

e.g. The Front end edit Cog appears on this page: https://www.radiologycafe.com/interview-application/where-to-apply
but not on this page (article info below):
https://www.radiologycafe.com/interview-application/life-as-a-trainee

Joomla team suggest this is a T3 error. How can I fix this - tried looking on the forums but couldn't find any solution. I really need this to work so my collaborators can edit pages from the front end!

Many thanks

Hi
The issue has been fixed on your site, I added an override file in template its same default Joomla article file.
that comes with Joomla and does not allow any template or T3 override.
/templates/t3_bs3_blank/html/com_content/article
http://prntscr.com/mgrohq
Kindly check the article now: http://prntscr.com/mgro3v
The issue was when the article info is on bottom of article the edit icon does not load, because it defined.

I also shared with development team to review the override in T3 and make a fix for future versions.

Hi Chris,

Kindly share the admin account and tell me the page where I can login from frontend to replicate the issue.

saguaros Thanks
The login details are in the black box above.
You can find a login box on the main page: www.radiologycafe.com at the bottom on the left.
Example page where it works is:
https://www.radiologycafe.com/interview-application/where-to-apply
Example page where it doesn't work is:
https://www.radiologycafe.com/interview-application/st1-application-form

Is that ok?

chrisgdclarke Kindly confirm if it works fine when Joomla default template is assigned.

You may provide the admin details for super user access level or you may upgrade the similar details provided through users --> manage in admin backend as there are several important tabs which arent appearing which makes it quite limited to troubleshoot the relative issue

Also, You may kindly provide ftp details too in edit fields to enable us to troubleshoot the relative issue closely

Thanks - I've made the changes so you should now be able to access it.
I can confirm that the edit function does work on the Protostar template, but not on the T3 Blank as described.
Please could you look now?

chrisgdclarke I can confirm that the edit function does work on the Protostar template, but not on the T3 Blank as described.

As apparently seen, Default Joomla template has been uninstalled. For troubleshooting purposes, Would suggest to re-install Protostar by going to Extensions > Manage > Discover > Protostar (search) > Install and then, check if the same issue persists after assigning default template for specific menu item

Also, Wished to confirm if the relative issue did happen with previous version of Joomla with T3 blank?

chrisgdclarke

I've tried that and it does work with the Protostar template. I however want to use the T3 template instead - the button is not there...

I'm not sure about the previous version. It definately worked approx 1 year ago (Joomla 3) aman204
