Meteor's accounts-ui-bootstrap-3 {{loginButtons}} not displaying

After installing bootstrap-3 and accounts-ui-bootstrap-3, the ui-accounts login widget did not appear when {{ loginButtons }} is used. Instead a <div> is found in its place but no widget is visible.

Are there additional steps that is missing for the widget to be displayed?

Adding Bootstrap 3 packages

mrt add bootstrap-3
mrt add accounts-ui-bootstrap-3

main.html

<body>
  {{> header}}
</body>

<template name="header">
    <div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top navbar-inverse" role="navigation">
        <div class="container">
            <div class="navbar-header">
                <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
                <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                </button>
                <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">My Bootstrap 3 App</a>
            </div>
            <div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
                <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
                    <li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
                    <li>{{ loginButtons }}</li>
                </ul>
            </div><!-- /.nav-collapse -->
        </div><!-- /.container -->
    </div>
</template>

Output of {{ loginButtons}}

<div id="login-buttons" class="login-buttons-dropdown-align-right"></div>

Update

<li>{{ loginButtons }}</li>

The problem here is you forget to use > "greater than sign", therefore it should be:

{{> loginButtons }}

Had the same problem because of useraccounts:bootstrap package conflicting with this package.

Remove all packages (can be achieved through meteor remove or by adding # in front of package name in .meteor/packages) and then enable packages one by one. You'll know the package causing conflict. Then remove the conflicting package using meteor remove {packagename}

I also accidentally had both the bootstrap and bootstrap 3 packages installed, which was breaking the css. I did $ meteor remove bootstrap and everything works now. Stupid mistake, but maybe it'll help someone.

To whoever finds this and wonders why this is happening, the solution is pretty simple. Just remove the standard accounts-ui package from meteor by typing meteor remove accounts-ui. Apparently the standard package overrides the CSS classes of the bootstrap-3 styled accounts ui.

If you inspect the element, you may notice:

#login-buttons {
    display: none;
}

This was the problem I had, although, I don't know why it is set to display: none.

You have to leave out the LI element around {{loginButtons}}.

<div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
  <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
    <li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
    <li><a href="#about">About</a></li>
    {{loginButtons}}
  </ul>
</div><!--/.nav-collapse -->

Additionally, you need a package like accounts-facebook, accounts-password or accounts-google.

mrt add accounts-twitter
