LiveJournal Hates Me: The "edit" button on my comments thread have disappeared. Help?

[livejournal.com profile] slaymesoftly mentioned in a recent comment that she couldn't find the little pencil icon to edit one of her replies, and I'm pretty sure it was there "before". (Before when? IDK.) I could be mistaken. I've asked all sorts of questions on the FAQ page, fed in keywords, gone over my settings etc. Anyone have any ideas how to return that function to comments?

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] rahirah seems to have found the answer - until next time I can't figure LJ out.

Thanks muchly  - and help yourself to a cookie.



                                                I mean this kind of cookie, silly.                                       Not this kind.


(Oh don't look at me that way. I've been waiting to make that joke for a whole year.)

Testing

ETA: Ok, what I'm seeing is that the edit button (and a couple of others) appear when I mouseover the shaded header area of a comment. i.e. they're still there, they're just invisible for some reason.

Thanks, Barb. Weirdly enough, I couldn't bring them up earlier today (on my own replies for instance) but now I can. Huh. Maybe I was so dazed from the heat or something. (It's been really horrible here today.)

I haven't seen anything in the settings that allows me to keep those buttons visible at all times, so I guess it's something to do with the way this particular template is designed.
