Posted June 10, 20232 yr Just noticed that all the templates and CSS files in the left pane are all missing and just the global template is in the right pane when trying to edit them (Version 4.7.2). Why are they not showing now as I know they were there before because I have modified several of them previously? Thanks for any help
June 10, 20232 yr Before you dive into the above, let's clarify what you are seeing. What you should see when editing a theme currently is: Front-end templates Custom CSS What you won't see is the following: Back-end templates Application CSS If you are not seeing what you should be seeing, then maybe you've got a problem that needs to be looked into. If you are seeing what you should be seeing, then dive on into the topic.
June 10, 20232 yr Author Very strange ACP behavior, yesterday nothing was showing except the global template in the editing pane and nothing else under the templates tab or the css tab in the left pane and I tried several times during the day. This morning everything is back all the templates and the css are there to choose from in the left pane, weird. Thanks for the responses!
June 10, 20232 yr I think that was the issue: You potentially either closed an IPS message on top and reloaded the page or upgraded from 4.7.2 to the later version. The fix supposes to be in 4.7.8. Edited June 10, 20232 yr by Luuuk
June 10, 20232 yr Author You are probably right as I had the upgrade message and closed it them went to edit a template and nothing was there. Thanks
June 10, 20232 yr Exactly. Regardless of the bug you can still access the stuff if you close the message and reloaded the page ... until the next "important" message. You said that you are on 4.7.2. The fix is in 4.7.8.

I have been with IPS since early 2003 and am tired of the constant changes, some good but most not good for my forum with the majority of my members who are older and don't like changes any more than I do. Especially like the upgrade notification that you can't get rid of in the ACP! Edited June 10, 20232 yr by Genestoy

Just remember to close the IPS message (every time it is re-appearing) and reload the page. That's all. Edited June 10, 20232 yr by Luuuk
