I have one additional piece of information that may be relevant.
After checking my email more carefully, I found that on June 26 WordPress sent me a Recovery Mode email reporting a fatal error related to Jetpack.
However, I never noticed any visible issue on the site at that time. Both the frontend and the WordPress admin appeared to be working normally, so I didn’t realize an error had occurred until I found the email later.
The error reported was:
E_ERROR in:
wp-content/plugins/jetpack/vendor/jetpack-autoloader/class-php-autoloader.php
Failed opening required:
jetpack_vendor/automattic/jetpack-connection/legacy/class-jetpack-tracks-client.php
The stack trace points to Jetpack’s tracking/connection modules while loading Jetpack.
I also performed one more test today:
Switched from my BuddyBoss Child theme to the default Twenty Twenty-Five theme.
The WordPress.com Notifications icon was still missing from the admin bar.
Switched back to BuddyBoss Child afterward.
So it does not appear to be caused by my theme.
I’m not sure whether this Recovery Mode error is related to the missing WordPress.com Notifications icon, but the timing is very close to when the problem first appeared, so I thought it might be useful to mention.
Thank you!
Title: WordPress.com Notifications disappeared from WP Admin Bar after recent updates
Hi Jetpack team,
I’m having an issue with the WordPress.com Notifications menu in my self-hosted WordPress site.
Site:
The issue
A few days ago, the WordPress.com Notifications icon disappeared from the WordPress admin bar on my site.
Previously, clicking the notification icon in the admin bar would open my WordPress.com notifications panel (comments, orders, Jetpack Monitor alerts, etc.).
Now the icon is gone completely.What I have already tried
None of these steps restored the notification icon.Additional information
Today I also experienced a temporary fatal error caused by another plugin (WooCommerce Subscriptions). I disabled that plugin manually via File Manager and the website is now working normally again.
Jetpack is functioning normally otherwise:
The only issue is that the notification icon no longer appears in the WordPress admin toolbar on my self-hosted site.
I’ve attached screenshots showing:
Could you please help determine whether this is a known issue or if something is preventing the admin bar notification menu from loading?
Thank you!
