Support » Fixing WordPress » Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_editor()

  • For no obvious reason – not following any recent upgrade/downgrade/install – the ability to edit or add new posts is no longer working, and in place of the editor I’m getting this error message:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_editor() in [directory name]/public_html/wp-admin/edit-form-advanced.php on line 269

    Here are lines 269-271 from edit-form-advanced.php:

    if ( post_type_supports($post_type, ‘custom-fields’) )

    add_meta_box(‘postcustom’, __(‘Custom Fields’), ‘post_custom_meta_box’, $post_type, ‘normal’, ‘core’);

    Would appreciate any help in resolving this issue! Thanks.
