Drupal's Admin Menu Not Appearing?

Versions prior to 5.x-1.2

This is common issue experienced during the upgrade from Drupal 4.7.x to 5.x.  Here's a checklist of things you need for the menu appear:

  • Make sure $header is printed in page.tpl.php
  • Add      <?php print $scripts ?> to the head of page.tpl.php
  • Make sure the admin menu block is activated; and weight it higher than the Nice Menu block (weight it the highest (lightest) to be safe).

Version 5.x-1.2 and higher

Repeat the above steps, with the exception of enabling the block.  Versions of admin menu after 5.x-1.2 are no longer output in a block, but rather by hook_footer().  Just make sure your page.tpl.php file contains the following just before the closing </html> tag:

  • <?php echo $closure; ?>

Important - note that the closure statement may, in conjunction with FCKEditor, cause the FCKEditor toolbar to be loaded twice.  If you're experiencing this, try removing the closure statement, and see if your Admin Menu continues to appear.  The updated FCKEditor version may already be printing the necessary code for the Admin Menu, so you may not need to add the closure statement.  This should also keep the FCKeditor toolbar from loading twice.
