Skip to main content

Please fix the bug that makes the “Go to main component” button in the right menu disappear for no apparent reason at all. If the library is inaccessible, try to open it anyway.


Apparently for some people this is also a problem in the assets tab: Where has the "Go to main component" button disappeared in assets? — I haven’t checked myself.


Here is an instance selected that has this button:

And here is where it doesn’t appear:

The difference? There is none. (upd: see my comment below, turns out this component is from a library I can only view) I just switched the component with my plugin Master to what basically is a copy of the old component in a different library. And the button disappeared.


At first I thought this is related to how some libraries are missing or you are not invited to them so you can’t go to main component. This is absolutely terrible UX but may be not a bug — just an intentional regression.


However, the behavior I’m experiencing is definitely a bug. Both of these libraries that I’m switching between belong to me. I just created them and published them.

I was having this problem, no link to the master in the team library. But then realized the file I was working in was in the Drafts section. When I moved it into a team project where the library is, the links reappeared.


I’m okay with this, but it’s a weird distinction. “You have complete access to all components in the team library when your file is in Drafts. But no master-instance links for you!”

Moving the projects into the same team worked as a fix for me.


It doesn’t make sense for projects to have to be in the same team in order for the links to work. That should be changed. Everyone experiencing this issue is evidence of how big an issue this is

This fixed it for me too, thanks!

Glad to hear Joseph’s suggestion worked for you both!


Please let us know if you run into any further issues.

Even if the main component is deleted, the instances still display “Go to Main Component.” This causes duplication and makes it difficult to locate the source.
