Missing "Edit Section" and "Edit Topic" Options

Missing "Edit Section" and "Edit Topic" Options

Hi,

I'm creating a new course in 3.5.2 and when I go to click to "Edit Section" I get a blank box (see screenshot below). The same thing happens when I try to edit a topic: the "Edit Topic" option is missing (that drop-down for it only has highlight, hide, and delete)


I'm logged in as the admin but is it possible I inadvertently turned off an option I need to turn back on? 


Please help! Tryign to get a course live by Monday a.m!


THANKS!

The usual suspect is that you copied and pasted some junk onto the course page that has broken javascript. To check switch on your browser's JavaScript console, reload the page and check for (red) errors. 

The only other thing - if it's a non-core theme, switch back to Boost just to eliminate a theme problem.

The course page file was never modified, there's no JavaScript errors, and I'm using Boost as the theme.

Any suggestions?

If it worked before and it doesn't work now, something changed. 

What was it? Even if it doesn't seem related...
