Title: Internet Explorer Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Internet Explorer * [gwoodard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwoodard/) * (@gwoodard) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/) * I am limited to using Internet Explorer 6. I have found that I am unable to create or edit a blog entry. I have looked through the forums for a clue as to why, but cannot find anything. Can anyone give me a tip? * Greg Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * [chaaban](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chaaban/) * (@chaaban) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295158) * what do you mean by :_ unable to create or edit a blog entry _ * problem related to installation ? or login ? wordpress work perfectly on all browsers * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295159) * Do you see any error messages? * Thread Starter [gwoodard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwoodard/) * (@gwoodard) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295169) * Thanks. I am not seeing any error messages. It doesn’t seem to work well when I use the press it button I put on my links tool bar. And when I have a post already created, I cannot go into my admin and, for example, select a new category for the entry. Also, if I have an entry saved as a draft, I cannot make any edits and then post it. * Greg * Thread Starter [gwoodard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwoodard/) * (@gwoodard) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295426) * One more note on this. I am unable to make edits to my blog posts at work or at home if I use IE6 either place. The same is not true when I use Firefox at home. * Thanks, Greg [http://www.gregwoodard.com](http://www.gregwoodard.com) * [Kate](https://wordpress.org/support/users/katie1/) * (@katie1) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295428) * hmmmm. A bit twilight zone-ish. * I use all browsers to check and even create posts for my web and I’ve had no issue with wordpress or creating/editing posts. Today I’m using IE6. * You mentioned FF. Do you have working versions of other browsers on your PC at home? Does this occur in other browsers (besides FF)? * If you don’t have other working browsers, you can download them – free of charge– to check your site for visual correctness. * Thread Starter [gwoodard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwoodard/) * (@gwoodard) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295470) * Hi all. I thought I would come back to this. I checked my permissions last night and made sure that I could make changes to my blog ([http://gregwoodard.com](http://gregwoodard.com)) in Firefox. Everything was fine. Today, I tried to edit a post in IE6 at work and in IE6 at home. In both cases, the edit did not take. I also cannot create a new post from either computer, but I can create new posts from Firefox at home. What am I doing wrong? I really want to be able to post and edit posts from myh work computer. * Thanks, Greg * [vkaryl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkaryl/) * (@vkaryl) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295471) * As to the work computer, what sort of restrictions are imposed by your IT department? That might be problematic in that particular instance. * As far as your home computer and IE, you’d be in the best position to say what restrictions you might have placed on the browser that are now interfering. * I can post, edit, change categories, etc. from IE, FF (4 versions), and Opera( 4 versions). It would seem to be something specific to your setups. * Thread Starter [gwoodard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwoodard/) * (@gwoodard) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295472) * Thanks. What sort of restrictions would interfere? WordPress works from a server, so I should be able to make corrections whereever, right? As for my home IE, what sort of restrictions would need to be changed? Maybe I have the same restrictions on my work IE. * Greg * [vkaryl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkaryl/) * (@vkaryl) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internet-explorer/#post-295473) * Greg, I absolutely can’t tell you since I NEVER mess with that piece of crap otherwise known as IE. I use it ONLY to check web design ON MY LOCAL SERVER – where it can’t get into any trouble, or provide lovely little surprises for me…. * I simply remember that the IT guy the last place I worked had a bunch of stuff disabled in IE – like java and js, scripts of any sort like the stuff media player runs…. I don’t know, he did gobs of disabling just to keep the backroom idiots from doing porn etc. at work…. * There’s others here who use IE. Perhaps they’ll have some thoughts for you.
