Describe the bug
Having installed FMCMS and FMCMS beta, nothing appears to load. The dashboard window is blank and >Front Matter: Open Dashboard also does nothing.

I cannot see how to find out any more information beyond the following that may be related. The same error is evident in both main and beta versions.

Runtime Status - Messages (1)
Menu item references a command workbench.action.webview.openDeveloperTools which is not defined in the 'commands' section.

Hi @Calorian do you have them both installed at the same time?

Do you get anything in the logs? https://frontmatter.codes/docs/troubleshooting#troubleshooting

Hi @estruyf,

They are not installed at the same, I made sure to remove each when testing the other.
On a fresh install of the plugin which is still not working the only error in the logs is as follows.

["ERROR" - 20:59:17] VSCODE | DataListener::pushMetadata: cannot open vscode-remote://[IPADRESS:PORT]/tasks. Detail: Unable to read file 'vscode-remote://[IPADDRESS:PORT]/tasks' (Error: Unable to resolve nonexistent file 'vscode-remote://[IPADDRESS:PORT]/tasks')
