[Resolved] Lightweight grid columns plugin: Icon not appearing

[Are Martin]

I recently downloaded the lightweight grid columns plugin but the icon is not appearing in my TinyMCE editor for some reason. I double checked and refreshed several times and the plugin is activated.

Any idea what might be the issue?

Are you using the latest version of wordpress?

[Tom]

Using the “Visual” editor and making sure you’re using the latest version of WordPress are definitely two things to check.

[Are Martin]

I´m using WordPress 4.2.2 and always using the visual editor.

However, I´m also using a plugin called TinyMCE advanced.

[Are Martin]

Deactivated the TinyMCE advanced plugin and checked again… but the icon was nowhere to be found….

[Tom]

Hmm, any other plugins? The icons is added uses basic TinyMCE coding – I went as lightweight as possible.

Can you try deactivating all of your plugins and see if it appears? Then activate them each one by one until it breaks again.

I deactivated all plugins and the when I reactivated page-builder from site-origin the icon disappeared.

However, I got the “white screen of death” for my front end after reactivating all the other plugins again :/ The backend is working like it should, but the front end is gone.

I´ve done this before and fixed it via FTP som I´m not in panic, but it never happened with the backend still intact.

Suspecting the snippets plugin where I have PHP code or a cache plugin… what do you think?

[Tom]

That’s weird – are they the same plugins you already had active with no issues?

Try turning on WP DEBUG: https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

I’ll have to investigate why Page Builder is hiding the icon.

It was the code snippets plugin. I deactivated it and now my site is back. 🙂

[Are Martin]

and the lightweight columns plugin is working! 🙂

[Tom]

Even with the SO Page Builder activated?

[Are Martin]

No, if I activate the page builder plugin the icon disappears. I´m not using the page-builder anyway. But it´s the latest update of the page-builder….

[Tom]

Interesting – I’ll look into it 🙂

[Tom]

I just tested Page Builder 2.1.2 with Lightweight Grid Columns 0.2 and the icon was still visible – I just had to be in the Visual editor.

Is that the version of Page Builder you’re using?

[Are Martin]

Yes, I have version 2.1.2 with Lightweight Grid Columns 0.2 also and when I activate page-builder here the icon disappears in the visual editor. When I deactivate it the icon reappears…
