#Dead Admin Bar

I don't know what I've done but my admin bar is dead, i.e. it shows when I'm logged in, with a Dashboard link, my username/email address, and New Page and Logout links, but the links seem dead, i.e. they are unresponsive and the cursor doesn't change on hover. What can I look at to try and solve this?

Looking at the source isn't very helpful because all I see is this:

export declare const PayloadAdminBar: React.FC<PayloadAdminBarProps>;

Hey @vapid jewel a few questions first to help us track down why this might be happening:

browser console — any errors?

inspect the admin bar element — is pointer-events set to none anywhere? Is another element (e.g. an overlay, header, or fixed nav) sitting on top of it with a higher z-index?

custom css — have you added any global styles that could affect pointer-events, z-index, or position on elements that might overlap the admin bar area?

did anything change recently? — any new packages, CSS changes, or component additions right before this started happening?

Which browser? — does it happen in all browsers or just one?

Ok, so fresh install (for the most part) of the website template?

I just tested this with a fresh install of the website template, on payload v3.82.1 and the admin bar is working as expected

I guess we'll never know, or not for a while at least. I just reverted and got my admin bar back and it's working.
