Disappearing menu items
#1
Hi,
I've just upgraded Kodi from 17.6 to 18.4, and wanted to put back the Aeon Nox skin, so went for the latest - Silvio - via the Kodi repository.

However, when Kodi loads there are menu items missing. I think it's only the text that's missing, because the entry can be clicked/activated and the sub-menus do what they should. You just can't see the entry names.

Text is missing from the main Aeon menu 'roll' - typically 'Apps' disappears and the sub-menu nder 'Movies' (renamed to 'Films'), has 'Recently Added' missing.

A bunch of others disappear under Skin\Configure Skin and its sub-menus.

Hopefully you can see what I mean:

I'd like to get it working properly, so was wondering if anyone can help before I do a full re-install?

Cheers

Do you use Profiles?

Looks like the Kodi Profiles bug to me.

You can reload the skin using the shutdown menu and that usually fixes it.

Hi, thanks for responding.

Yes, I do use profiles (to separate the kids' videos from my John Wick etc.).

If I reload the skin it does sort it out but I have to do it every time. Actually, I only have to do that if I want to use the options in the Skin Settings menus, so it's not too bad.

I found if I manually type in the labels for the main menu items, they then don't disappear, so it's usable.

I'll check out the Kodi Profile bug - haven't come across that until now with Leia 18.4

Thanks again

The problem manifests itself in a couple of different ways, and the one you describe is one of the ways.

Thanks for the link. I'm going to go back to Krypton 17.6 seeing as there are other problems in Leia as well.
