    Umbraco 7.12.1 missing preview, save template buttons, and no new colors on backoffice? (SOLVED)

    After the upgrade, we are missing the cancel button on all of the backoffice pages. Anyone else seen this?

    enter image description here

    Hi John

    I guess you mean the preview button ? It seems to me only the text is missing. If you click the button does the preview work ? In that case it's a missing label.

    On a fresh install it works correctly for me. So I think something went wrong during the upgrade concerning the translations files.

    Can you compare the ones from the installer with the one in your installation ?

    The files can be found here : \Umbraco\Config\Lang

    Yes (sorry), the preview button.

    In the lang.xl file, the key is present

        <key alias="saveAndPublish">Save and publish</key>
        <key alias="saveAndSchedule">Save and schedule</key>
        <key alias="saveToPublish">Save and send for approval</key>
        <key alias="saveListView">Save list view</key>
        <key alias="showPage">Preview</key>
        <key alias="showPageDisabled">Preview is disabled because there's no template assigned</key>
    

    Nothing happens when I click the purple button. I've compared the entire umbraco folder looking for differences, there is nothing that I cannot specifically account for. (due to umbraco forms, and the CMS Importer tool I purchased)

    I don't mind troubleshooting, I am just not sure where to go from here...

    I also am missing the text on the save button on the template page (settings area).

    Looking in the language file (en-us) and (en), it appears to be present.

    I also noticed that the color picker for the document icons doesn't show the new colors... nor does the button at the bottom of the slide out while adding a control to a page have text (the save button as well as the close "link")

    I am also missing the Compositions and Reorder links on the document type editor pages as well.

    I went through the tracelog, nothing there except warnings about prevaluedisplayresolver (could not find persisted pre-value for field xyz)

    its almost like something is cached, but I have cleared all of the browser cache, deleted all the files in App_Data, and still no joy. I've also tried it in a browser that has never accessed the site with the same results.

    Hi John,

    I just installed these packages on my 7.12.1 install from yesterday without any issues. I also setup a 7.9.0 site and installed the packages and than ran an upgrade. Still no issues.

    Do you see anything in the browser console when you click the preview button ?

    No.

    So I reverted (thankfully we make pretty heavy use of version control and a staging environment to test). Then I went ahead and reapplied and it seems to be fine now.

    I am not really sure quite what happened the first time around; I looked through the tracelogs and the NuGet output from the original vs. the 2nd pass and didn't see anything that stood out. I hate mysteries like this; I suspect that something went wrong with the package install; I've had that happen before, but usually I see issues in the output of the installer.

    Anyway, long story short - problem solved. Lesson to everyone: ALWAYS update in a non-production environment in case something goes wrong...

    Hi Guys

    It looks like we trapped in the same problem. Everything ok with buttons locally - but on live the same issue. No texts on a few buttons.

    John, did you solve it by upgrade again?

    Thanks,

    Alex

    hi John,

    We had this as well once. What I did to check this was copy over the files from the zip installer for the bin, umbraco and umbraco_client folders and check if it worked.

    Yeah, I usually use BeyondCompare to manage the merges, particularly with the config/lang files.

    I am beginning to think that NuGet is not the way to go and perhaps I'll alter my process as I continue on here to include a manual copy, checkin, and then a nuget install to pick up any of the additional changes that the installer would do... at least then I can be assured that I have the files right :-)

    Maybe I'm lucky..I only had one issue when files were not correctly updated by nuget. And i've done a ton of upgrades.

    I seem to have issues frequently; I think it is partly because we are still using TFVC instead of GIT.

    Typically my issues have revolved around binary files or references not getting updated correctly... this was something else.

    We are a pretty big site with a LOT of custom code (www.upventur.com)… maybe the number of files and such increases the risk of something going wrong... not sure.
