[resolved] WYSIWYG editor no longer available (7 posts)

    I've just tried to create a new post, and found that the WYSIWYG editor is no longer available. The normal buttons at the top have gone, all you see is Upload/Insert, the same as for the HTML editor. When I click in the space below, HTML code appears:
    , or <p /p>.

    I tried opening an existing post, and initially the WYSIWYG editor was blank. No text. I clicked on HTML, then went back to WYSIWYG, and the HTML text appeared.

    I've tried it on 2 computers, with IE, Firefox and Chrome. The same. I.e. it doesn't appear to be a problem with my local setup.

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Anyone know of a solution?

    Try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can sometimes affect the admin panel).

    Hi James, thanks for your help.

    I tried deactivating the plugins, but that didn't solve it.

    My concern about changing themes is: will I get all my customizations back again? I've done a lot on my Atahualpa theme, and would hate to lose my settings.

    Could you advise on this?

    OK, I worked the previous question out, and I've now applied the Twenty Ten themes.

    But the result is still the same. No WYSIWYG editor, :(.

    Any further suggestions?

    Try adding define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false); to your wp-config.php file just below the define('DB_HOST' line.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! I dunno how, but that did it.

    Whew, am I glad to have my WYSIWYG editor back again!
