Node-RED Dashboard not displaying button

[BCI1999]

What are the steps to reproduce?

Try to use a button on the node-red dashboard

What happens?

The button displays in the node-red environment, all seems to work correctly but when opening the dashboard the button does not show up.

What do you expect to happen?

The button should show up under the correct tab and group on the dasbhoard.

• [ ] node.js version: v18.12.1
• [ ] npm version:

Can you share your minimal flow that shows this behaviour ?

Thanks for the reply! I added some screenshots that show the behaviour, with minimal code. Node-RED flow and dashboard layout: Dashboard itself:

Can you try this simple flow ?

should be the same as yours but works for me...

Thanks! Just imported your flow, disabled all other flows to try and have a fresh start, and nothing's showing up at all on the dashboard still...

Edit: restarted node-red and now it's working correctly, going to see if my other flows work Edit2: the buttons in my other flows were not showing up, disabled them and tried to run your code again and now that one's not working anymore either...

sorry - not understanding by what you mean by disabling the flows ? If you disable the flow then indeed the buton won't exist as it is hidden from the flow.

Had to be more clear my bad. I meant disable all other flows I have, only leaving that specific one enabled.

I suspect that the ui-base config node is also being disabled.
