Sharepoint 2010 article edit button missing
-
Okay, so this is breaking my brain. I have developed a Sharepoint solution with about 15 webparts for a client. This site has been up and running for about a year and a half, and so far all good. They have a QA site and then a production site, but one heck of a timeline between deployments, so recently they have given me a "Test" server that I can deploy to whenever I want for interim testing purposes. This too, was all good for about two months. Then BAM, Sharepoint did its thing. The site is an enterprise WIKI so we create and edit an publish article pages. All of a sudden the "Edit Article" link is missing for me. But for me only. No one else. I can go "Site Action >> edit page" but when I go into edit mode or type in the edit URL, then most of my functionality is disabled. I am web admin. I am site admin. I have full control on the site itself. Whaaaaat the heck? Anyway, any help would be appreciated. So far, the universe is winning.

Yes, well. I have no idea. :-\ It sounds like you have crashed the site. Perhaps you should test on a new WSC if it still appears. It's hard to get the problem without taking a deeper look in the site settings. I have ascertained that most times such problems depends on - site corruption - a new site is needed - a access problem you might be site-admin, but some rules are wrong - a problem with your browser - a wrong hotfix - some have been withdrawn, because after installation some features aren't working To detect what the problem is: - test on a new empty website (or WSC) - test with another user, take a deeper look into the rules - try another browser (I had the phenomenon that one feature wasn't accessable with IE and I had to use FF) - install another, newer hotfix

I was also having the same issue in one of my project. That time the issue was in the Master Page HTML. Accidently I left one HTML tag open and it was causing the malfunctioned HTML rendering. So just to help you on lead… :) Is the Site Master Page Changed recently or Can you please check whether the Master page has well-formed HTML?
