Nav menu disappeared

snowplum

Hi

The navigation buttons on the top nav bar disappeared after installation of spoiler and emoji. I uninstalled these but the buttons didn't come back. I've tried ./nodebb reset all. It removed all my widgets and reset the entire theme but the buttons are still gone.

(the buttons on the right - chat, notification, search, profile icon - are still there, but the buttons on the left have disappeared).

Edit: I think this was also after I upgraded the vanilla theme, though I was using lavender theme.

The latest vanilla theme (1.0.27 and up) requires the latest master of NodeBB, so either you'll have to downgrade vanilla or upgrade NodeBB to latest

snowplum

Thank you. Which command should i use to upgrade nodebb? What about downgrading vanilla? I used reset plugin command for vanilla but it didn't solve the issue.

You can try.

npm remove nodebb-theme-vanilla
npm install nodebb-theme-vanilla

snowplum

Hi, I could remove vanilla fine, but when I tried the second command, I got these error

I've restarted nodebb. The buttons are still gone.

What version of nodebb are using ? Can you please tell me what's the result of

npm ls nodebb-theme-vanilla

snowplum

I updated to the latest version of nodebb using git pull and the buttons have come back. However, I noticed during the installation that the same error message occurred.

"The package nodebb-theme-vanilla does not satisfy its siblings' peerDependencies requirements!"

^ I noticed I got that message every time I tried to install a plugin, even after I've updated nodebb.

These are what I get when I entered the command you showed

Ok, well you are using the master branch with 0.7.0 and the plugin spam-be-gone is not compatible with it I guess. About flip theme it seems that it's not compatible with 0.7.0 as well. For the lavender theme, you can update it to its lattest version with npm.

npm -i [email protected]

spam-be-gone is compatible with all themes >=0.0.137, so it is clear.

Uninstall flip, then reinstall vanilla and lavender.

I did as you said and it worked. flip theme must have been the one causing problem. Thank you.
