Hey there, guys! Can anyone tell me why I cannot press the timestamp button in any of my flows? The debug button also doesn't work 😕 I have to keep reloading the page until it does. Homeassistant's companion app and other browsers behave similarly. Uninstalling most of the pallets I installed in the past months hasn't made any difference. Log seems to be clear, except for this : "[warn] Projects disabled : editorTheme.projects.enabled=false"

This was the only way to capture the cursor, so I apologize for not posting a printscreen.

Thank you for your suggestions !

I have occasionally noticed this in Node-RED v3 and above, usually a redeploy fixed it for me.

However that "[warn] Projects disabled : editorTheme.projects.enabled=false" is not an issue, it's simply telling you that the editor is not running in projects mode (multiple projects).

You might try navigating to .node-red/node\_modules and running "npm update"

Thank you for suggestion, but I am not really sure where to find the .node-red/node\_modules. I have it installed using the HomeAssistant addon, so it may be different 😕 . The version I am running is v3.0.2
