# Page/Post Editing Bug

 * We have an issue on all of our wordpress sites with editing navigation.
 * Typically, areas like “Publish”, “Page Attributes”, “Chat Options”, etc. have
   navigation arrows on the right. One uses these arrows to open and close a box(
   like “Publish”).
 * These arrows are not showing on our sites. This makes editing a real issue particularly
   when we have other editing areas like SEO.
 * Oddly, this bug is not an issue in a sub-domain, only in our domains. We suspect
   the problem is in some script at the root level, but have not been able to track
   it down.

 * Is this the same issue as your other thread here?

 * We are not sure if it is the same or something else. However, we just installed
   WordPress from a minor site with no content. The reinstall resolved the issue.
   We are now considering doing the same on the other 6 sites, but are not certain
   if that is the right path.

 * If reinstalling solved the problem, sounds like a good path. It’s a standard 
   troubleshooting step, usually after deactivating plugins and switching to a default
   theme.

 * The site we tested had no plugins and the default theme. We simply deleted all
   the files (nothing of consequence the the wp-content file) and reinstalled WP.
 * The other sites all fail with all plugins de-activated and with a default theme.
 * We have full backups, but have never tried (or needed) to restore anything. We
   are trying to get help with that now.

 * If these are all on the same server and have this same problem, have you asked
   the hosting? Or enabled debug? Or checked for JavaScript errors?
