Backend dropdowns of the Main Menu don't work anymore after new installation of site-profil

[Marcel Stäheli]

Hello everybody

I'm running xampp 3.2.2 and I created a website using the ProcessWire 3.0.39 build that I plan to use as a foundation for future projects. I exported the site using the "Export Profil Site" (as i have many times before with other sites).

 I installed the site-profil as a new site with the processwire built 3.0.42. The installation itself goes smoothly without errors when I try to login I get an AdminTheme Reno Error which I can resolve by deleting the AdminTheme Reno Folder under \wire\modules\AdminTheme. I don't think that's the cause of my problem because I had that error with other sites that worked just fine after installation ( I screwed something up with the admintheme on a previous version of the site).

So after I logged in everything looks normal, except the dropdowns of the Main Menu (Pages, Setup, Modules, Access ...)  don't work anymore, when I hover over them they change color, but no submenu appears. Also I'm missing the "Save"-Button on the top right of any Edit-Page. The "Save"-Button on the bottom left is there and works. Everything else functions as normal too (as far as I can tell).

Its not the Processwire Built, if i install one of the standard profils the submenu appear and the "Save"-Button is there. It seems the fault is with my site-profil, but I have no idea what could cause this problem.

Any ideas?

Hello @Marcel Stäheli,

maybe the console of your developer tools will reveal more information about the errors. Also you could turn on debug mode.

It is not recommended to delete anything inside the /wire/ directory. Especially if you want to upgrade PW, it would just override any changes you have made.

I'm nor sure anymore how that admintheme error happend, I think i read an outdated thread on how to customzite it.

I copied the AdminTheme Folders from a diffrent project where everything was fine. Still had the problem, then I copied the \wire\templates-admin folder, and that did the trick.Everything is back to normal. Lesson: Never mess with the wire folder.

Thanks, I don't think I would have tried that without your input.
