Visual Editor and Add Media pop-up not working (5 posts)

    Was recently hacked, and have been in process of reclaiming my blog, cleaning out malicious code, and securing my clean site.

    I think I'm just about there, but am now having problems with TinyMCE and media uploader.

    My problem:
    Visual editor is not working. The Visual tab is available, but only displays the HTML toolbar. Anything typed into the Visual editor appears as HTML.

    Also, when I click the Add Image (or add any type of media), I do not get the media pop-up window.

    However, I can access the media library and use the media-new.php page to upload new media to my library. I just can't then add that newly added media to a blog post.

    This was working just fine after a full upgrade to 2.9.1. I wrote a blog post last night, used the full visual editor and media uploader. Woke up this morning to no visual editor and no media pop up.

    What I've Done:

    • Checked my profile to ensure that I am using the Visual editor. Verfied that Google Gears not running.
    • Disabled all plugins, cleared cache, and switched to the default theme (to rule out theme-based issues).
    • Uploaded ALL new 2.9.1 WordPress files, to include the wp-admin and wp-includes folder.
    • Replaced the tiny_mce directory (wp-includes/js/tiny_mce) with latest tiny_mce.
    • Tried the Use-Google-Libraries plug in.
    • Tried the TinyMCE Advanced plug in.
    • Repaired my database from my control panel.

    Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok...one problem solved.

    My media pop window is now available.

    I had added the following line to my .htaccess file, which was recommended as a tip to thwart hackers:

    RewriteRule ^(wp-includes)\/.*$ ./ [NC,R=301,L]

    Once I removed this, I can now use my media uploader.

    However, my visual editor is still not working.

    Sigh...

    just noticed that "Use the visual editor" checkbox in my profile is not even there any more. No option to select or deselect it.

    Firebug displays the following error when loading post-new.php:

    tinyMCE is not defined
    post-new.php()post-new.php (line 1167)
    [Break on this error] tinyMCE.addI18n('en.style_dlg',{

    Well, my TinyMCE issue resolved itself when I upgraded from 2.9.1 to 2.9.2
