[Resolved] Toolset compromised our whole site

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: After updating Toolset, we no longer see links to "Edit this View" on the frontend of the site.

Solution: The "Edit this View" links have been removed from the software but another shortcut is available. Go to Toolset > Settings > General and check the checkbox "Enable the Design with Toolset menu in the frontend". This will create a menu item in the admin menu bar, where you will find links to edit any View on the page.

We experience different malfunctions in our site and it looks like the problems are related to Toolset.
- CPTs created by Formidable Forms stopped displaying the content
- Frontend Edit links for Toolset Views disappeared…
Could you please examine this?

- CPTs created by Formidable Forms stopped displaying the content
Is the CPT showing a 404 error, a 500 error, a blank screen, or partial content? Is there a Toolset Content Template assigned to this CPT? If you switch to a default theme like Twenty Seventeen, are you able to see the content?

- Frontend Edit links for Toolset Views disappeared…
Are you referring to links to Toolset Forms? Do you have the Toolset Forms plugin active and up-to-date? I cannot see it in your debug information.

CPTs created by Formidable Forms displayed only the title, not the content. We managed to fix this by reverting the site to a previous backup.

However there is still something missing.
We have a frontpage built with different views. When logged in as admin we had a link "edit this view" at the bottom of each view. These links are gone now. Any hints to get them back?

Sounds like a problem with a Content Template. I would need to take a closer look to be able to offer advice for fixing this problem. If you would like some assistance, please provide login credentials in the private reply fields here.

These links were removed in a previous version of the software, but there is another shortcut to edit the Views shown on a page.

This will create a menu item in the admin menu bar, where you will find links to edit any View on the page.
