# Admin area code display cropped on left side

 * Since the upgrade to 4.9, one of my sites Admin area shows contents of text editor“
   tucked under” the line numbers on the left. For example, in Appearance > Editor
   section where I look at style.css, I see
 *     ```
       theme-primary {
       kground: #03c4eb;
       or: #FFFFFF;
       ```
   
 * whereas if I copy those lines into an external editor I see
 *     ```
       .btn-theme-primary {
       background: #03c4eb;
       color: #FFFFFF;
       ```
   
 * I would like to know if anyone else has solved the same problem before I dig 
   into the CSS for the Admin area.

 * To rule out and theme/plugin conflict, try:
    – 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). – switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen, etc.)
   for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme
   functions can interfere like plugins). – If you can install plugins, install 
   [Health Check](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/). On the troubleshooting
   tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and change the theme for
   you, while you’re still logged in, **without affecting normal visitors to your
   site**. Some more info on using this plugin can be found here: [https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F](https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)

 * I did not think I had added new plugins on this site. However, when I turned 
   all the plugins off and then back on, this display problem fixed itself.
    Next
   time I’ll just try that first. `user error?`
 * Plus, thanks for the tip about **Health Check**.
