I created a page where it will show the firebase data in a RecyclerView. It work but I decided to put a toolbar at the top of the page to have a back function. After I put the toolbar in my layout file, the RecyclerView is not showing any data anymore. I think that my layout XML file is wrong. Thanks in advance for anyone helping.
