I am writing a new Wordpress theme. The admin bar appears on the front end, but is blank. On the backend, the admin bar is present and correct, and I can amend it by adding the relevant statements into functions.php. I imagine I have overlooked something obvious - there is no problem with the admin bar, when I change to another theme, but as soon as I use the theme that I am developing, the front end admin bar goes blank.
Can anyone point me to a possible solution? This is the first theme that I have written from scratch - previous themes have all been based on the Quark theme, which, in turn, uses _s. Everything else I want to do with the theme is working well, but not the frontend admin bar - which exists, but is a blank black bar.

Okay - just for completeness. I have found the answer to my own question. Research elsewhere showed me that the code that displays the admin menus is contained in the function wp_footer(). So all I needed to do was add
<?php
wp_footer();
?>
to the bottom of my footer.php file.
