Impossible to edit Theme editor

Hi there,

Please access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel, navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

If that does not resolve the issue, try downloading WordPress again, access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel, and delete then replace your copies of everything except the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies from the download. This will effectively replace all of your core files without damaging your content and settings.

Some uploaders tend to be unreliable when overwriting files, so don’t forget to delete the original files before replacing them.

Hey,

Your theme might be disabling the native file editor, so, you can try adding this code at your wp-config.php

define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true);

Also check once that the files you are trying to edit have proper file permissions.

Thanks.
