Thank you for a great module. I have used it extensively over the years!

I have a small issue with one site. The "manage display" tab is not showing on nodes. I can access the displays and everything works via admin/structure/ds but no tab. Any pointers on what might be causing it to not populate?

Tried a few cases, can't find any issues. Sorry!

I had the same problem. You have to enable field_ui and contextual module to show up the tab on the node. Not sure, why contextual module is necessary to display a node tab.

I accidentally also stumbled across the issue on a skeleton page, that hadn't contextual links enabled.

It's necessary to have the contextual module enabled, because the "Manage display" tab is integrated in ds_contextual_links_view_alter which is a implemented hook for hook_contextual_links_view_alter

I guess, that that use-case is really seldom, as the contextual links is almost always enabled.
