    My theme is a child of twentytwelve and I have the classic plugin installed. Recently, I added a new account and assigned it with the “editor” role.

    Suddenly, for the “editor”, the “add media” button has disappeared. Also, if any attempt to edit earlier posts, all the buttons have disappeared.

    Everything looks completely normal for the “administrator” role.

    Here is a screenshot showing what I see as editor OR as administrator:
    etherwork [dot] net [slash] blog [slash] scrnshot_editing [slash]

    I tried switching to twenty nineteen theme and the problem remains.

    Please advise.

    You are fortunate, Joy. But for others who are searching for how to get the “text/visual” tab to appear because of having the same difficulty, it is an easy thing to check for to see if that is all that is required for that particular fix.

    And, just as an extra experiment, I re-installed and activated the WP-CMS Post Control plugin. Note that it did not cause the “text/visual” tab to disappear.

    What did cause the “add media” button to disappear was checking “remove media upload” and “remove word count” in the Advanced Controls of the Plugin. I will amend the post I put into the support area for the plugin.

    Thank you again for the help you provided.
