Issue Summary
I just started using dart 6.x-2.1 for the first time, and there doesn't seem to be an intuitive place to create ads in the system. In the old version, there was an adtag page, but when I dig through dart_menu I only see two items: the global settings page and the ad test page. How do I access the interface for inputting actual ad tags?
Thanks!

Thats odd ... a couple things to check ...
- are your permissions set?
- if you are updating from 1.x, do you have ctools installed/enabled?
I cant think of any other reasons for what you are describing. You should see something like this at admin/build/dart_tags:

Notice the "Add" tab at the top

I ran into this issue, since I upgraded to DART 2.1 this week. This seemed to fix when I would flush caches. This issue of disappearing List, Add and Import tabs has recurred twice, and resolved by flushing the caches.

davmorr ... is there any pattern you are noticing as to when the list "disappears"? Next time it happens would you mind trying a simple hard refresh in your browser (ctrl+shift+r in FF & Chrome || ctrl+f5 in IE) and report bacj the results.

As a follow-up, I can't track my issues back to the module code. My problems were the result of a number of subtle but significant environmental issues. Now that they've been resolved, the new DART version works as I'd expect.

bleen: I have not noticed any patterns, the tabs just seem to vanish randomly. The only way that I have found to restore them is by clearing caches. I just experienced this again while debugging an issue with the DART Taxonomy module (will post as a separate issue and solution if it hasn't already been addressed). To help troubleshoot, I started clearing the caches one at a time from Admin Menu. It appears that the Menu cache is where the problem lies, which makes sense. It looks like those three tab menu items are getting bumped from the Menu cache somehow, namespace collision maybe? Just a guess.

+1 to subscribe. Having the same issue.

Having similar issue. I'm using Rubik admin theme and Dart Settings keeps disappearing from the Site building section.. When I clear cache it 'sometimes' comes back.. Most of the time I just go to the admin/build/dart_tags url directly to access that dart admin page. There is definitely something flaky going on - in theory it could be related to the switch to ctools interface you've made.

gansbrest... I agree that this has something to do with integrating with ctools, but there are two problems: first, I cannot reproduce this so its clearly not effecting everyone equally, and second there are probably 500 modules that ctools like this.
#12
btw .. gansbrest: can you confirm you are also using 6.x
#13
Yep, we use 6.x-2.5. I agree with the fact that lots of modules use ctools, but I think it's all about specific options.. I'll try to dig more on my dev box and maybe will figure the cause of it. The biggest problem is inconsistency, sometimes is there and sometimes is not, but oh well..
