After installing both the latest release and the latest dev version of field tools when viewing a content type I can't see the tools menu tab.

/admin/structure/types/manage/test

If I append the word tools to the url then the page works and the submenu with the clone and import/export options are shown.

/admin/structure/types/manage/test/tools

Any idea as to why this is happening? I'm using the standard seven theme.

I'm guessing it's the same issue as reported here.

The tools tab menu on the field list page is shown correctly.

/admin/reports/fields/tools

It's working fine for me. I just created a node type 'test' and at admin/structure/types/manage/test I see the Tools tab.

Maybe you're menu's become corrupted? Can you try with a clean Drupal install on the same codebase?

Hi joachim,

Thanks for the quick reply on this and this has turned out to be a schoolboy error on my part.

After creating another install from the codebase as suggested and only activating the field tools module it appeared and worked as it should.

I also have a few other modules such as auto label and access control which when activated add their own tabs so I activated these as well.

However it seems that the default Seven theme hides any tabs that don't fit on the screen and my browser window wasn't wide enough to fit them all on. If I expand the window across two monitors then the tool tabs appear.

I thought I'd looked in the html using firebug to search for the tools tab but clearly I hadn't.

So all in all the module looks to be working fine, apologies for wasting your time but at least with this answer maybe it'll help others in the future.
