• Suddenly – not sure when this started as I hadn’t tried to post anything for a week or two – I cannot write new posts.

    The tools bar has disappeared from the top of the posts.

    I can enter the title of a post. I cannot enter text in the main box – it doesn’t appear. Though if I highlight it, it appears if something is there.

    If I click to view the html, nothing happens.

    I have de-activated all my plugins to no avail.

    Any ideas? Very very concerned. Am not an IT person at all – just an amateur blogger – but my blogs are important to me and I am concerend that I’ll lose readers if I can’t put a new post up soon!

  • Have you tried:

    – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    – re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress.

    I tried switching to Twenty Eleven – no difference.
    I do not know how to reset the plugins folder but I deactivated every plug in. No difference.
    I have completely reinstalled WordPress on one site and even the now empty blog will not take new posts.
    Have tried different browsers and different computers. It just doesn’t work!
    I am amazed that having reinstalled, it doesn’t work.
    I did Easy Install using Softaculous.

    I do not know how to reset the plugins folder

    Please see the link I posted above.

    In any case, I have reinstalled WordPress completely on one blog. I have absolutely NO plugins installed now on that new blog. It is STILL not allowing me to post.

    Try adding define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false ); to the bottom of your wp-config.php file (just before the require_once line).

    I’m having the same problem. I just updated some of my plugins and now can’t post, there is no text box, title box or tool bar at the top. I can’t edit any old posts either. Is this likely to resolve itself as I am not very tech savvy and need to be able to post. It doesn’t seem to have affected posting new pages. Please help!!

    Try this – it worked for me. I changed http://address.com to http:www.address.com
