Editor under Appearance missing

My role name is administrator. But when I called for the url directly it says “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

In the user section I can see that my role is administrator and I am logged in as such. I have a second person with the role administrator but she does not see the editor neither.

In my profile I cannot see the field “role settings”. Hence, apparently, wordpress has registered me as administrator but does not recognize me as such.

What can I do?

Nethertheless I can add users and change the role with the functionality on top of the list of users.

Otherwise I have no log-in troubles, so I fear the recommended steps under Troubleshooting Login problems would not solve the problem.

Sorry, I could not see your post about the file permsission when I wrote my last bit.

I have read through the editing files documentation, but it does not tell me really why I cannot see the editor.

And no, I ma not very familiar with editing these files but there are times when you need to delete a border you don’t like or change a pre-set font size. I usually copy the original css.php file, save it somewhere, edit the copy version and then check if everything works out as I wanted it to. If not I simply put the original version back.

I rarely do that, however, I want to be sure that there is no other bug in the installation set-up. It is not normal that you don’t see the editor in a freshly installed wordpress dashboard.

Do you have an idea where I could check if the config.php looks like it should? I have never been in cpanel. Or where would you check?

I will check.
I have just de- and re-installed again and the problem persists. The help person of my hosting company said that they use the official WordPress version 4.0, so no installation problem.

I’ll be back tomorrow.
