I just about an hour ago manually uploaded 3.3 to one of my wordpress sites. My site works fine and I am able to see everything from a visitor standpoint. My issue which appears to be the same as Alexa’s is that when I am in wp-admin none of the editors are working the way they should.
I can type in a title in a post or page and it shows up fine. However in the body copy, I can type but it shows white text on a white background. None of the formatting menus show up either within the admin.
Thanks.
Did you try renaming the plugins folder to plugins-old?
There’s a reason we list multiple things to do on this list – http://wordpress.org/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-33-master-list
Try them ALL.
Thank you for your reply. I am sure being in a position where you feel you are answering the same question over and over and over can be frustrating, especially considering all the time you have invested as a volunteer. I wish to tell you that I am very grateful for what you and everyone else have done to make WordPress the best tools out there and it has become a key part of my life and work.
Yes, I have read all of the master list and then some. None have solved the issue with the admin page and post edits.
I have rolled my sites back to the previous version of WordPress. I found a version of WordPress 3.2.1 and overwrote the wp-admin, and wp-includes folders along with the root wp files only keeping my wp-config.php from being overwritten.
Thank you. I apologize for posting a question in this forum.
It’s fine to post a question 🙂 We would like it, though, if you could tell us what you DID do to troubleshoot already 😉 (otherwise I have to ask those silly repetitive ones and it annoys you and me — I hate having to say it as much as a lot of you hate seeing it).
The reason I keep pestering people about dumping caches, trying different browsers, and renaming the plugins folder is… they work. For the majority of people out there.
There is a KNOWN problem with browsers being idiots and caching data and not letting go. In particular, the jQuery bump from 1.6 to 1.7 is causing some errors that simply should not happen in a well built browser. Firefox, Chrome, Safari are ALL experiencing this one. Sometimes. Other times they’re just fine. It’s maddening.
Try installing the Use Google Libraries plugin.
Hi all. I had to call someone to fix the problem because I had done every single thing on the list. The gentleman offered me this explanation in his email:
“There’s a minor bug in 3.3 that was concatenating javascript files.
I installed “hotfix” which is a plugin that disables this until the new WP comes out (3.3.1 will have a fix)”
I am able to see and edit my content now, thank goodness!
Thanks to all on this thread. I had the same problem as Alexa and the hotfix plugin resolved it.
@alexa , thanks a lot , i’ve had the same problem and Hotfix fixed it all…Thanks a lot.
