Block regions missing from admin/build/block

same problem for me

Confirming same issue.

same issue. it doesn't seem to do this in context 2.x - or at least if doesn't do it in Drupal Commons which is using 2.x. I really need the region displays so I can use firebug to know what to tweek. Please consider adding this issue.
thanks

I just noticed - the core chameleon theme still shows its region displays but it only has two regions (the left and right sidebars). So ... maybe that is a clue as to what might be wrong?
hope it helps.

Confirming also the same issue.

Issue results from overriding the theme registry for 'blocks' in context_theme_registry_alter(). context_blocks() calls the execute() method in context reaction block plugin, but that method doesn't call drupal_get_content() (like theme_blocks() does) and so doesn't receive the markers set by the drupal_set_content() call in template_preprocess_block_admin_display_form().

Functions involved are specific to D6. If needed for D7, solution will be different.

Same issue here, this function is sort of important if you are theming / playing around with different themes to see visually where regions are on the blocks page.

Same issue here as well.

Patch. See #7 for description of source of bug.

#10 works. My visual representations of block regions are back on the blocks page. Thank you!

+1 for patch @ #10

Can't get this patch to work. Installed it with the "patch" module with, model=context, issue #=916194 over Drupal 6.2, Context 6.x-3.0, Theme Black Mamba 6.x 1.4. It's install smoothly, but does not create the result. Anyone please?

@shaisamuel: clear cache

#16 thanks Mike, it worked. I love Drupal and the community of people around it.

+1 for patch #10 !
Applied ok in 6.x-3.x-dev (2011-Feb-25).

Thanks, greetings, Martijn

Since this wasn't committed to the 6.x.3 dev version and I'm using a win dev server, I can't do a true patch. I pulled code from #10 and manually applied it to the 3 files affected. I get no errors - but even after clearing the cache once the module is enabled, the regions still don't show at all. Disabling it displays all the regions as expected.

the problem not happen with the theme Zen.

the patch works perfectly in other themes, but in Zen, the regions indicators shows duplicated.

thanks

I am experiencing this same problem however context is not installed on my site

Try @16, few times.

Would this be fixed via #1197918: context_blocks ignores drupal_set_content()?

@hefox...

Applied the fix from the link you posted, and it seems to get the region displays on the blocks page working as expected. I have no idea if Context itself works correctly after patching (I'd disabled it after this block issue), but no other errors or WSOD's so far.

EDIT: A little hasty on posting without checking everything a bit more thoroughly first. It does fix the admin side of things to get the regions back, but after going to the regular site pages it does break my theme now that Context is enabled. I won't conclude that it's doing this in error, since Context's purpose is to modify the layout and I may need to rework how the pages render... so the caveat here is that you might want to make sure things are as they should be on a non-production site first. Disabling Context (again) did get my layouts back to normal, until I can devote a fair amount of time to go through things.

As predicted by @vectoroc here, this RTBC patch fixes the problem. So, this issue could be considered duplicate of #633778: Conflict with themes implementing theme_blocks(), Isn't It?
