# Issue using wp_editor

 * I am attempting to use wp_editor in a custom plugin that allows me to edit fields
   in the database directly. The editor comes up except I can’t switch to the visual
   tab. I get the following JS error: Uncaught ReferenceError: switchEditors is 
   not defined. Are there any other libraries I need to enqueue?
 *     ```
       <?php
       $settings = array(
       'teeny' => true,
       'textarea_rows' => 8,
       'tabindex' => 1,							  'media_buttons' => false
       );
       wp_editor(sanitize_text_field($row[$i]), 'col' .$i, $settings)
       ?>
       ```
   
 * I have replaced all the core code files with fresh versions and disabled/deleted
   all plugins. This error is happening on all browsers. I have tried to set define(‘
   CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false ); in wp-config.php and tried the default theme (
   which I refreshed from a new download). Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
