In-place editor buttons in footer missing I installed the Panels in-place editor which, in principle, should allow me to edit page layouts on the front-end. 

But the two big buttons "Customize this Page” and “Change Layout” which should show up at the bottom of the page in the footer, are simply missing; I have a blank footer bar. I have already set the default renderer to IPE as well as given appropriate permissions. Any ideas on how to fix this - get the IPE buttons?? There are no missing dependencies AFAIK, but the evidence suggests I am probably wrong..
Did you enable Node template in page manager? -> /admin/structure/pages
That should make the toolbar appear.
