Its not always practical in the real world to update WordPress just because a button isn’t appearing. The site in question has been neglected for a while and I’m only willing to update WordPress once I can test that this will not break the site’s core functionality which the owner relies on for his income. * For anyone else who has a similar problem, I found that disabling the plugin, visiting the post editor and then reenabling the plugin solved the issue in the short term. * Plugin Contributor [photocrati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/photocrati/) * (@photocrati) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/button-missing-on-post-editor/#post-5946104) * [@codecowboy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codecowboy/) – Thanks for the update, but keeping current with WordPress is both a short-term and long-term item in and of itself. The essence of staying current is also in the best interest of any site as well and often times corrects conflicts that are causing issues with plugins and/or themes. * – Cais.
