Page Builder Not Opening

[Fiduciary Forums]

I've written IPB support but was curious, anyone else having issues with opening Page Builder?  I am using cloud service and it goes straight to the page itself.  Frustrating.

That's exactly what it should do. You build the page by dragging and dropping blocks from the Block Manager. When you're on the page you should see a little arrow on the left-hand side about halfway down the screen. Click that and you open the Block Manager. If you want to add text, choose a WYSIWYG widget from it.

My apologies...I wish to edit a page. So I click on Page Builder of the page I created and goes to the page, not the builder.  I attach the screenshot of top portion. 

So in essence, same as View Page.

Now I'm lost. You say you wish to "edit a page" but in the next sentence suggest you intend to go to the builder. They're different things.

If you're getting the magnifying glass icon and clicking that takes you to the page, then you've set your page up as "manual HMTL". Clicking on the pencil icon will reveal a content tab, into which you manually enter your HTML for the whole page. That's how you add content with it.

If you're instead getting a wand icon instead of the magnifying glass, then you've built the page using the Page Builder. Click on it and you'll lend in an editable version of the page, into which you can drag and drop blocks.

Reading over your posts again, I suspect you do indeed want to land on the Page Builder and are surprised that the Page Builder looks exactly like the regular page. As I said earlier, it is. That's exactly what's supposed to happen. It's a blank canvas onto which you drag and drop what you need using the Block Manager. If you need to add text, use a WYSIWYG widget. Or if you want to create a page by manually adding the content, don't use the Page Builder version but set it up as Manual HTML instead, then click on the pencil icon and use the Content tab.

Edit:

Or do you mean you're opening the Page Builder correctly but are not seeing the areas into which you can drag and drop, like this?

If that's the case, then you're correct, your Page Builder isn't working properly.

Did you ever figure out why it's not displaying properly?  I'm experiencing the same thing.

I am having this issue now too.  I don't get the sidebar in order to edit the blocks on the page.

I have this problem as well.  I was just upgraded to the lastest version and the wysiwyg editor is not visible for multiple browsers.

I've gotten the site bar to display, it's a permissions issue.  However, it doesn't load the Javascript.  I'm re-running the upgrade, so once it's done, I can give you the exact steps to getting the editor bar.

does anyone have an update on this?

our amazing support team fixed my pagebuilder issue.  Check permissions not only on the admin groups, but the moderator groups to be sure both are able to manage blocks.

that fixed me!

THANK YOU ANDY!
