 * Hi. I have been away on holiday for the last 2 weeks. I visited my website and
   noticed that a new version of WordPress was available V7.0. I backed up my website
   beforehand. I then updated to the V7.0 and it installed ok. But when I went to
   my pages and posts to add more content, the links were there to the pages but
   when I clicked on edit, all I got was a plain white page, nothing else, it was
   the same for all my posts pages also. I also have other websites using WordPress,
   I dare not look at them untill there is a solution with this issue.

 * Hi [@danielsteel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielsteel/), this is 
   likely a plugin or theme compatibility issue.
 * Try deactivating all your plugins and see if the editor loads. If it does, reactivate
   them one by one to find the culprit. If that doesn’t help, you can also try switching
   to a default WordPress theme temporarily.
 * V7.0 only just dropped yesterday, so for sure some plugins and themes haven’t
   been updated for compatibility yet. I think it’s also worth rolling back to your
   previous version as an option for now, while things stabilize.

 * I deactivated all the plugins on my website as suggested and the problem still
   exists. My next step is to try and upload the saved backup I made before I changed
   to v7.
