 * Anytime I try to edit any part of the sight (on the front-end or back-end editor)
   the text that displays in the editing box is white on a white background. I cannot
   seem to resolve the problem. I have to select the text to even know it is there.
   I also have the editor in “visual” mode, but it is showing all of the code. I
   cannot get it to display the text in black no matter what I have tried, and the
   html coding will not go away.

 * What I’d try is to disable your plugins one at a time starting with the newest
   to the oldest testing after disabling each plugin and see if that doesn’t solve
   the problem.
 * Two additional things you could try is to change themes or clear your browsers
   cache.
 * If none of this helps, maybe include your site’s address if the site is publically
   accessible.
 * Hope you come right quickly.

 * I have tried all of those things, and nothing helped. The site is active and 
   this randomly just happened about a week ago. Nothing was changed to my knowledge.
   The website is [http://www.littlelighthouse.org](http://www.littlelighthouse.org).

 * Have you tried accessing the site from another PC?
 * Something you can try is to go to your Dashboard > Updates and click “Re-Install
   Now” and see if that helps. Doing this shouldn’t break anything but just for 
   safety sake, make sure you have a fresh backup.
