Hi

I'm currently experiencing an issue in Confluence where the top toolbar in edit mode is completely missing. As a result, I’m unable to insert tables or use basic formatting features.

I've already tried the following steps, but the issue persists:

  • Reloading the page

  • Clearing browser cache

  • Logging out and back in

It probably has something to do with their new silly pop out edit feature?

How did you fix it?

Luke Hsieh May 12, 2025

Hi, I found a solution and it works for me.

 Try highlighting a part of your text. This will bring up a pop-up bar, click the three dots and then you can change the toolbar to be fixed at the top of the page.

Thanks, @Luke Hsieh that worked.

A side note for the @Conteam

The inline toolbar does not make sense as you can't do anything without highlighting text. Not sure what you need to highlight to insert new objects into a page. It would make a lot more sense to still have the main toolbar at the top at all times - even minimised if you want to save screen real estate - and have the inline toolbar to work with highlighted text.

This bug feature wasted a big chunk of my time trying to figure this out. Thanks for nothing!
