Problem

After installing the Confluence Source Editor plugin, you are supposed to see this <> button, at the top right corner whenever you Edit a page:

This button will not be shown when you are creating a page (expected behavior).


In some cases, the button does not show, even when you edit a page.

Cause

Corrupted plugin caches in the database


Resolution

Rebuild the plugin cache, by performing the following:

  1. Shutdown Confluence
  2. Remove the following from the Confluence Home Directory:
    • plugins-cache
    • plugins-osgi-cache
    • plugins-temp
    • bundled-plugins
