Visual Editor & RewriteCond

    Hi, I have not had the Visual Editor icons for a few months, I have reinstalled, disabled plugins, tried CKEditor etc. etc. Pretty much all the usual fixes. However I wondered if it could be the Rewrite rule I use for a multisite causing the issues, however I am not experienced enough to know how to edit it.

    RewriteEngine On
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} mysite1.org$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !wordpress/
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ wordpress/$1
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} mysite2.net$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !mysite2/
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ mysite2/$1
    ErrorDocument 403 /missing.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
    ErrorDocument 504 /missing.html
    # BEGIN WordPress

    # END WordPress

    To rule out any theme/plugin conflict, have you tried:

    – deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
    – switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Sixteen, etc.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    – Your browser can help you identify JavaScript issues or conflicts. Do you have any Javascript errors in the console when looking at the editor page?
    – This article can assist you in doing that diagnosis.
    – If you use any caching systems, like Cloudflare, clear those caches.
    – Check that the file permissions of all the PHP files are set correct (i.e., 644).
    – Specifically check files like /wp-includes/js/tinymce/wp-tinymce.php and such.
    – If the permissions are incorrect, then some servers running security code like suhosin won’t allow those files to run.

    Now we are getting somewhere, I am getting this error:

    Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

    Failed to load: http://www.mysite.org/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/plugin.min.js

    The permissions look fine on this file, could the Rewrite rules be confusing something?

    – to find out for sure, try removing that snippet for a moment.

    – also make sure tinymce plugin is up to date. And that no files are missing.

    – you may also try re-uploading that plugin in case any file is corrupted/incomplete.

    Yes that’s the problem, what do I change in .htaccess?

    I’ve already manually unzipped and reinstalled WordPress therefore the files should be fine.

    Yes that’s the problem

    Good! That narrows down the cause of the problem.

    what do I change in .htaccess

    Again to be sure, I suggest removing one line of the snippet at a time
    and testing.
