Edit Links missing from site collection

I no longer have the ability to choose the "Edit Links" option on the site collection. I have seen the CSS to take it away. I do not have that in my CSS.

Hi Daniel,
I've also experienced MilaJoe's issue as well. I have four web applications each with a root Site Collection based on the Enterprise Publishing template. All four of these site collections are missing the "Edit Links" option in the Quick Launch
and Global Navigation bar.
I'm a Farm Admin and also a Site Collection Admin to all of the sites in my environment. Here's what I have noticed:
Any top-level site collection that is NOT a root site has the "Edit Links" option enabled. Any site collection that is build off the managed path (i.e. webapp/sites/project1) works just fine.
Anything that is provisioned at the root site collection does NOT present the "Edit Links" functionality. This appears to be the case whether or not I start with a Team Site or Enterprise Publishing template. Activating site collection features
or site features has no affect on the the "Edit Links" functionality at the root.
Daniel, any chance you can confirm my theory?
NOTE: Site Owners can still manage navigation under site settings; however, I'd still like for Microsoft to confirm that enabling or disabling the SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure feature is what's supposed to control this behavior.
Thanks,
Chuck

  • 'Add a Page' missing from Site Actions

    Hello,
    We are having a weird problem on our SharePoint 2013 server where the menu item "Add a page" is no longer in Site Action menu.
    All sites are publishing sites and we have custom masterpage with custom pagelayouts too. 
    We don't have other custom packages/webparts/solutions installed, everything is standard SharePoint except the masterpages and pagelayouts.
    There are no javascripts error on the pages. We are running as Site Collection Administrators. 
    The menu item was there before, it suddenly disappeared.
    We also installed the design package on another server and the menu item "Add a page" is there.
    There are errors in the logs saying:
    0x0D08 Web Content Management        
    Publishing                    
    8ts5 Unexpected
    Exception in file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\Template\Layouts\EditingMenu\SiteAction.xml: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    84b35a9c-2ef8-e064-6afc-5d6db01cbcc7
    Does anyone know what have caused this?
    Thanks.

    Hi hipplan,
    According to your description, my understanding is that ‘Add a page’ is missing in your site.
    Whether ‘Add a page’ occurred on a subsite at the same site collection.
    This issue seems to be caused by custom something in your master page.
    Please  deactivate and activate publishing features at site collection level and site level.
    Check whether the Wiki Page Home Page is active at the site level. 
    Then do the followings:
     1.Open IIS
     2.Click  Application Pools
     3.Select the web application pool that you use for your site
     4.Right-click it, and select ‘Recycling…’
     5.Reset IIS
    After the above, open the site again, compare the result.

  • I am unable to reach the my content page of mysites from the name link within my site collection

    For some reason I am no longer able to get to the personal mysites page from within our site collection. My name appears at the top right and it has an option for setting which leads to some minimal page but I can no longer use this to get to the actual
    mysites page. Is there a setting I am missing that allows this to happen?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to reach the content page of mysites from the name link within site collection.
    As this issue is always related to the inadequacy configuration about the MySite, you need to make sure that you had configured correctly with your MySite. You can refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624362(v=office.14)
    What’s more, you can also check with the following steps.
    Make sure the Web site for MySites in IIS is started.
    Make sure the App pool is running
    Use ULSVIEWER to check your Sharepoint ULS logs for the issue.
    There are two similar articles for your reference.

  • Missing "Test (Dummy) "Account from site Collection

    I have test account named "[email protected]" which is available in 3 of the site collection i have so that i can login as test account and perform testing.This test account is not working in one of the site collection.When i try to add this account
    in Readers group ,it will not take it.What might be the problem for this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that one text account could not been added to the Readers group in one of your site collection.
    Did the issue occur in the other groups? You can check it with the other groups.
    Did the user have particular permission or other permissions in the site collection? You can check the user’s permission in the site.
    You can also create a new group with the same permission level, then check with the user.
    What’s more, you can recreate the user, then check whether it works.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • "Add Link" missing from Calendar after publishing sharepoint page

    The "Add Link" is missing from Calendar when I publish the page. While in the edit mode, I can see the "Add Link" option. I also made sure I have the right view mode set for the calendar. I am using SharePoint 2013.

    Hi,
    I assume you are adding calendar web part to a page.
    Please click somewhere in the Calendar web part and check if Events/Calendar tab appears, and try to add new event. If you highlight one box in the calendar, could you see the +Add as below:

  • How to fetch Properties of all Survey Lists from site collection using Java Script in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    I am trying to fetch properties of all lists of "Survey Type" from my site collection in SharePoint 2013 using script editor web part. I am able to fetch properties of one list by mentioning its name explicitly in code but not all survey
    list.
    My task is to display Survey name , description ,Time created and URLs of all survey lists using java script in script editor web part.
    And let me know , if there is any other OOB feature of SharePoint 2013 to achieve the same. 
    Here is the code  :
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    SP.SOD.executeFunc('sp.js', 'SP.ClientContext', sharePointReady);
    function sharePointReady() {
         GetSurveyList();
     function GetSurveyList() {
            var spListTitle = " List Name";
             var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
            var oWeb = clientContext.get_web();
            this.surveyList = oWeb.get_lists().getByTitle(spListTitle);

            clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.GetListProperties),Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
     function GetListProperties() {
            $("#SurveyList").text("");
            var surveyTable = "<table border=1>";
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<tr><td>Survey Name</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>Survey Description</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>Time Created</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<tr><td>" + surveyList.get_title() + "</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>" + surveyList.get_description() + "</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>" + surveyList.get_created().format("MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt")+ "</td>");
                 surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("</table>");
            $("#SurveyList").append(surveyTable);
        function onFailure(sender, args) {
            alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
    </script>

  • How to include "pages" and "documents" as different tabs in most popular item webpart from site collection ?

    Hello,
    I require to customize the most popular item web part that should show the "pages" and "documents" from entire site collection in different tabs in the same web part.
    can anyone suggest me the approach on the same ?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    Hi,
    It would not be an easy job to customize an existing web part which with its own design.
    As a suggestion, it would be more appropriate to create a custom new web part with the help of Search API in your scenario, there, we can create custom style more
    freely than customizing on an existing web part.
    About Search API in SharePoint 2013:

  • File + Edit menus missing from PSE9 trial version

    I installed the trial version of PSE9 and am having a fundamental problem with the Organizer. Various functions require me to access File or Edit menus which, according to the Help file, should be at the top of the screen but they are nowhere to be found.
    For example, I want to Move files offline to a CD or DVD. To do that - according to the Help facility - I have to start by clicking on File - Move, but nowhere can I find this "File".
    Does anyone here know whether these menus are missing from the trial version of the Organizer ? Or are they hidden somewhere ?

    Thanks very much.
    When forwarding this to the product management you might mention that this problem was encountered on a Window 7 Ultimate 64-bit system. I mention this because I have discovered the the "Ultimate" and 64-bit versions sometimes behave significantly differently from the other versions of Windows 7. In particular, some of my recently-purchased software has been unable to deal with the 64-bits, possibly because parts of them were written 10 years ago albeit purchased recently.

  • Edit option missing from SOME photos

    Several of my iPhone pictures on the camera roll do NOT have the edit option available.  Most of them do, but several do not.  I noticed that the pictures that do not have the edit option anymore are photos that I have already edited at least once in the past.  Any idea why the edit option is all of a sudden missing from those photos, but is not missing from others?

  • EG1032 drivers missing from site

    Seems the drivers for EG1032 are missing from the support page.  I chatted support and they said it was because "GPL licsense agreements are vaild for a specific time period, which is now over"  So they remove old drivers because of some expired GPL? Seems like a bullsh!t answer to me, and Linksys just being lazy.

    Hey, if you still can't find the drivers you need from Linksys official website, I suggest you visiting here: http://tiny.cc/uoverx
    Maybe there're what you want.

  • Links missing from printed version

    Using RH7 on a help text originally created in RH5, my
    printed documentation has no links at all-- not even non-working
    links. The link text comes through as plain text. While the printed
    documentation is being generated I repeatedly get a message from
    Microsoft Word, saying "Word cannot save this file because it is
    already opened elsewhere (C:Documents and Settings\...\Normal.dot)"
    This message makes me think the link problem is related to
    templates. When I open the resulting document and look under Tools
    > Templates and Add-ins, it shows these templates:
    - In the "Document Template" box, C:\Documents and
    Settings\ccbrewst\My Documents\I-GUIDES help\IGUIDES_RHT.dot
    - In the "Checked items" box, rhd.dot and SnagIt Add-in.dot
    It doesn't mention Normal.dot. Can anyone tell me if the link
    problem is related to templates, and why I get the message about
    Normal.dot? (I think I'm over my head!) Thanks.

    I wish this forum would let me edit my previous submission. I
    wasn't getting links because I hadn't checked the "Retain
    Hyperlinks" box. Duh! I didn't know that choice existed. But I'm
    still getting the message about Normal.dot, so I'd still like to
    know about the template issue. Thanks.
