 * Hi Jonna,
 * there must be some type of conflict either with your theme or with one of your
   plugins. Editing HTML definitely won’t cut it. You can do one of the two things:
 * 1. You can either downgrade by installing previous version of WordPress
 * [http://wordpress.org/download/release-archive/](http://wordpress.org/download/release-archive/)
 * 2. You can try deactivating / deleting your plugins one by one and see if that
   brings functionality back. If plugins are not the reason for this mess, then 
   it must be your theme. Try switching to another theme or deleting your present
   theme altogether.
 * No 2 is better than No 1 as you always should keep your WP updated to the latest
   version.
