hey Dave,

I had the same issue with "Mydiary" theme after I updated from 1.7.0 to 1.7.1 It was working fine for me, I started at 1.5.3 version but when I updated to 1.7.1 it did the same thing. (see pic) I posted my issue in the "Theme" section (http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/28637) never got an answer....I even posted to the theme developer (http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/24061?page=1#post-109700) still no answer.

But the good news was...well for me, was when I did the NEW update to 1.7.2 (as you I had no issues (yet) after updating...it went smooth for me too) my issue was fixed. Now the icon is back...so that leads me to believe it has to do with something in the core. Because its still the same theme version, it has not updated and is still showing "Compatible with 1.7.0" on download page...so it was not a theme update that fixed my issue.

Just some input on this issue for you, I'll be watching this post, hope you get a fix!

Dave we cannot reproduce that. Also why is the text area as well as background of the message is crimson? Have you customized the theme?

Try to deactivate the smilies plugin. 

yes sir just the colors, but i set everything else back with this update, but yes the colors are custom.   I will try smiley idea and get back to you thanks. 

still the same ross, even with smileys disabled, original ow.css and also macabre css.     ill keep digging and let you know if i find something. :)

here is the code from FF inspector

<a class="image" id="nfa-feed15486a5cfb7ad9-btn" href="javascript://"><input class="mlt_file_input" name="attachment" type="file"></a>

shouldnt that js be  javascript:void(0);  just curious

i thought maybe it might have been because they used miniic_attach.png instead of the orange ic_attach.php 

but then i found this in the messages. So it has to be a core deal...

Dave what element did you inspect? Gear/setting button or attachment button, because neither of them match what you have here, I mean this one: 

<a class="image" id="nfa-feed15486a5cfb7ad9-btn" href="javascript://"><input class="mlt_file_input" name="attachment" type="file"></a>

I also have javascript://

i have narrowed it down to the css i think... I put my css back for macabre for 1.71 and they are back now.   So it must be in the macabre css for 1.72 that i downloaded from the store. 

lol that was the file attachement for newsfeed dashboard

Dave, I have 1.7.2 version and I have updated all my default themes. I do not face this issue with css. Everything works as it should be. 

What is your software version by the way?

1.7.2 build 8520  now i did notice that when i did the update that origin theme auto updated without me having to do so, i thought that was sort of strange but then it did it on both sites and so i thought maybe that was a new deal. 

maybe i should DL the origin theme from the store and install it, you think ?

As far as I remember there was no update for Origin theme. You can try to reinstall the Macabre theme though

ok bud thanks :)    im doing a winmerge comparison now on them both. 

ross here is some new code in the macabre css from the store, when i remove it i get the icons on the message all (toolbar icons) but with it active they do not show up. 

body .toolbar {

border-bottom: 1px solid #bbb;

}

body .toolbar ul li a {

background-image: url(images/wysiwyg.png);

}

i think it the other missing attachment icon has to do with this file, it sure seems to come up alot of my searches.   images/wysiwyg.png

ross that was it..  wysiwyg.png was not copied to my server, it was not in the macabre images folder, once i moved it over to the macabre from the origin folder then the icons appeared.. 

whooo hoooo 

Great to know you solved your issue. 

So Ross....what would cause this issue? It happened to me using "Mydiary", but when I did the last update to 1.7.2 it all cleared up and is working fine now? I even tried using wysiwyg.png but it did not work for me...The core update fixed my issue.

Wilson

Hi Wilson, i did want to thank you for your input before, it did help.  :)   That is strange that you tried the wysiwyg.png and it did not work for you.  And since there was no update to the origin theme in 1.7.2 that is strange.  

What i am wondering is if even though there was no update to origin theme, if it still installed it or not and overwrote the existing files anyway.   What im thinking is if something might have been missing from your origin theme when you had 1.7.1 if maybe that was fixed when the 1.7.2 was loaded.  

It also looks like the mydiary is only compatable to 1.7.0 and it does not have the wysiwyg.png in the images folder.  So that means that logically it would not rely on that file because it would still rely on the old process for the icons.   I dont know when they began using wysiwyg.png.    So my guess is that your issue lies somewhere in the old toolbar process. 

Probably some files were overwritten or added. I can't tell you the exact reason, I had to look at the website and files then.
