Masterpage tab not showing
Kentico 5.0
Hotfix 5.0.2

I created a masterpage on my site in portal engine but the "MasterPage" tab is not showing. I verified that administrator had the role CMS Desk Administrator and that in it was autorized in permissions (also in modules) but it still isn't showing. I need to add something in the body but I can't seem to find how to put the masterpage tab...

I've developped a big part of my site and I really need this MasterPage tab!

Is it a bug, was it fixed in a hotfix, or is it something else?

Any idea what cause this?

RE:Masterpage tab not showing
Hello,


Do you edit a root document?

Is global administrator able to see the master page tab?

Could you please enable the Master page UI element in Site manager -> Administration -> UI personalization -> Dialogs -> Module: Content?

RE:Masterpage tab not showing
Hello, thanks for your answer.

No, my masterpage is located at my "/fr" folder and another master page at "/fr/mobile".

Global Administrator cannot see the MasterPage tab.

I've added Global Administrator to CMS Desk Administrator and verified that the role has access to Masterpage tab in Site Manager -> Development -> Modules -> Content.

Then, I tried verifying in Site manager -> Administration -> UI personalization -> Dialogs -> Content but everything is checked...

Hello,


the master page for different than root documents is a new feature of version 5.5. Could you please upgrade your installation? Then you will be able to see and edit the master page tab.

Oh, I thought it was new in the 5.0 (since I could see it in the documentation) but I guess it was still limited.

Thanks for your answer, I'll try something with the PortalTemplate.aspx since I can't add it to the root
