Hello Carlson Smith,
Action icon will disappeared , if your roll in course does not have permission for "taking attendances" .
Please check, do you have permission to take attendance for that course.
Also first link of screenshots is not working.

I hope this will help you.

Hi, I honestly never got no email notification for this. So Sorry Shiv. Its been months now too.



You will notice that actions section is blank. I am also logged in as a global site admin.

Actions in other parts of website also seem to just not display.
Example here 

The Edit actions are missing too.

So I found what the problem is, but where to edit it is what is beating me now.

There is a class called "action-icon".

When I do an inspect on the location that the icon is supposed to be

" a.action-icon{visibility:hidden;}" appears. When the visibility property is changed to visible, it shows icons, not only here, but in the attendance plugin as well.

Only problem now, is where and how to change this properly.

There are a few different places this could come from.

* if you're using a custom theme, try switching to Boost to see if that fixes it. If that fixes it, the css will be contained within your custom theme somewhere.
* check the customcss in your theme - most themes have a "customcss" field in the moodle settings that allows for extra css to be added.
* check to see if you have installed any 3rd party themes that have a styles.css file that contains this change. Moodle bundles the css from all plugins into a single css file.

good luck!

Hi Dan,

So the only theme is Boost at the moment.

Do I type ".action-icon{visibility:visible;}" or "a.action-icon{visibility:visible;}" into the Raw SCSS field just like that? The Raw Initial SCSS field does not say it accepts CSS or not.

Cheers,

Carlson

It would be good to work out what is causing it to be set as hidden - If you only have the Boost theme installed I would expect that you have a 3rd party plugin installed that has some CSS contained within it that is doing this. Can you give a list of the extra plugins you have installed here so that if someone else hits this same issue in future they can compare your list with their list of plugins and might be able to track it down?

thanks,

Here's the culprit:
https://github.com/danitome24/moodle-local_gradebook/blob/master/styles.css#L82

I've also reported it here:
https://github.com/danitome24/moodle-local_gradebook/issues/82

I note that the developer of that plugin also states " This plugin is being developed and NOT able to use in production sites" and hasn't updated the plugin in 3 years.

Hi Dan,

putting "{a.action-icon:visibility-visible}" inside the Raw SCSS field seems to have done the trick, thanks.
