   Hey everybody-

   I just upgraded to 2.1 (which, by the way, is fabulous!).

   The only problem I'm having is with my WYSIWYG editor. I have tried to post an image, and the little box is opening where I put the URL in. I had all of the settings filled out, however there is no "OK" or "Done" etc. button! I tried to hit "Enter" and "Return" and it just cleared my values. The "X" button to close the window doesn't work, either.

   In addition, I have a Firefox extension that validates Javascript and the like, and when I try to do anything in the image box, a Javascript error appears at the bottom of my browser.

   Any ideas?

   I've also just upgraded to 2.1
   My WYSIWYG toolbar only contains the following:
   bold, italic, split post and spellchecker
   Should there be more? I have activated visual editor under Your Profile

   Some people have reported a conflict with the WP rte and Firefox.

   I'd also say that the visual editor works an awful lot better under IE than under Mozilla - where the tabs are incredibly slow. Is this to do with lack of JavaScript support outside Microsoft, perhaps? If so, can I suggest an early move away from JavaScript?!

   I am also missing RTE after upgrade to 2.1.
   The behavior is same in IE6.0 and Opera 9.10.

   Be sure to clear out your browser cache and do a forced reload of the page that you're looking at.

   Please see if that helps,

    It didn't help for me I'm afraid.

    Zoinks! Clearing the cache solved the problem for me. I can now see the icons for the RTE. I'm using Firefox.

    Clearing the cache is not help for me.
    See this screenshot:

    I also do not see an option for turning visual editor on/off. Where should I find it?

    The Option to use the Visual Editor is under your profile.

    Hope that helps :)

    First I tried IE instead of Firefox, and RTE was fine.

    Then I cleared Firefox cache, and now I have RTE there as well.

    Thanks folks!

    I'm having the same problem. Clearing the cache in Firefox and using IE did not fix it. :(

    I mourn!

    Advice?

    Try the Chenpress plugin to get a better WYSIWYG editor. I can't help fix the problem, though. This is why I rolled back to 2.0.7 and am waiting for them to fix 2.1.

    My problem is somewhere in my files, or my changes. I have recently installed WP2.1 in test directory and there is no problem.

    OK, more data for anyone working on this problem. In Firefox, I manage to get all the RTE buttons up with a cache clear and reload. Using (for example) the insert link button calls up a little java window, where we find the usual options. The insert and cancel buttons are there, but you have to scroll down to them for some reason. However, there's not much point, because they don't work! Pressing either causes the editor page to lock up; the java window stays there and cannot be closed. A Page reload sets you back to square one. Java console packed with warnings and exceptions that mean nothing to me - but I can supply them if it's any use to anyone, just let me know.

    So, tried in IE7 (ugh). Here, the java window opens, but you can't scroll down to find the insert and cancel buttons. However, in this situation you can actually close the window and get back to an active editing page.

    Hope this is of use to someone; if I have garbled it and made no sense, or if you want the java console error codes, just let me know and I'll post 'em up. In the meantime, I think I can live without the RTE for a few days - the other improvements more than make up for it!

    I activated the "Visual editor" in the Profile but then all buttons disappear. I tried on 2 different systems (1 one was a totally new installation), and I get exactly the same results.

    Actually the problem comes from /wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_config.php and ads supported web sites.

    header("Content-type: text/javascript; charset: UTF-8"); is required otherwise the ads supported websites will add their ads after.

    So just insert "header("Content-type: text/javascript; charset: UTF-8");" after "@ require('../../../wp-config.php');" in this file and it will do it!

    Thanks a lot !

    Bizarre! I'm using Firefox 2 and have the same problems. I think this is a bug!

    I cleared the cache - nothing (I run my browser with no cache anyway!)

    I tried looking for where I can use rich text editor, there in my wordpress 2.0.4, not there in WP 2.1.2, I have the same un-rich editor as MarekKlein.

    I looked for the file: /wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_config.php
    but it is not part of 2.1.2. There IS a file called
    /wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_gzip.php
    which has config-lik stuff in it, so trying to edit the line that anonislis suggested, adding

    "header("Content-type: text/javascript; charset: UTF-8");"

    after "@ require('../../../wp-config.php');"

    which didn't do it,

    so then tried the "patch" on
    http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3144, but it referred to lines not within the file in question, so useless...

    So still looking. Anyone else have an idea why tiny mce works in 2.0.4 but not in 2.1.2???

    I had this same problem, when using FireFox...it took me a while, but I figured it out.
    If you have AdBlock installed, it will block the editing icons from appearing. I had tried altering code, inserting code, and the like, but all I actually needed to do was disable AdBlock. Chances are, on this issue, if it is working in IE, its a FireFox addon or something related to a non-default FF install.
