 * Hi there
 * I’ve been having issues with the post viual editor as since the last week or 
   so, I’ve been unable to load images into the post and align and add shourtcodes
   to them. I can only add a featured image if i right click and open in a new page.
   I’ve read the threads in the forum and did all of the points:
 * deactivate plugins, reset plugin folder, try a new theme…everything.
 * This is really putting a damper on my updating the site with posts.
 * I used the element inspector in Safari and this is what comes up:
 * Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
   
   tiny_mce.jsFailed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404(
   Not Found) wp-langs-en.jsFailed to load resource: the server responded with a
   status of 404 (Not Found) admin-bar-sprite.pngFailed to load resource: the server
   responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) editor.cssFailed to load resource:
   the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) post.php:1143ReferenceError:

   server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) loadingAnimation.gifFailed 
   to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
 * Any ideas? the folders are in the right places on my ftp, so i don’t understand.
 * i don’t know what else to try. The problem started before updating to the new
   software version. I had hoped it would fix itself, but it didn’t….
 * Can you please help?

 * Hi there
 * I’m still having issues with the post viual editor and no one has been in contact
   with any other suggestions. I’ve read threads in the forum and did all of the
   points they say to do. It’s really annoying me now and I can’t do anything with
   a post. i’ve tried:
 * deactivate plugins, reset plugin folder, try a new theme…everything.

 * Can you please help? Using 3.4 recently….

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

 * HI there
 * I just tried that and now my panel at the top is just a list of links… 🙁
 * An I putting it in the right place….this is where i have it:
 * /** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
    define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’,
   false ); require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);

 * That should work fine. Remove it and ask your hosts if anything changed on your
   server recently.

 * Hi Esmi
 * Thanks. I have removed. My host couldn’t find anything either. They tried to 
   remove and reinstall plugins as per the advice on the threads.
 * I have noticed that some of the file permissions on my folders/files are not 
   granted for owners etc… so the wp-confid file hasn’t got the execute box ticked
   under owner permissions. Does that make a difference?
 * Do you think redownloading wordpress from the beginning will help. I.e. start
   agin? If I do that, will I lose everything?
 * I have no idea what to do and it’s really getting to me.

 * Hi Esmi
 * I had some issue so backed up and redownloaded everything. My icons in the initial
   list of posts in the dashboard is showing and now when I click to upload, the
   pop up upload box now shows in the centre of the page (before it was showing 
   partially off page and i couldn’t access it, so something worked by doing that….
 * The only think not working is still the visual editor…. I guess hopefully there
   will be a fix.
 * i appreciate your quick responses, and if something does turn up to fix this 
   problem, let me know.

 * Hiya Esmi
 * No.I just took the backup and downloaded onto my ftp and it’s working. And this
   morning when I checked, the visual editor is back and working!!! so something
   kicked in! 🙂
 * Although I have one problem, now I can’t see anything on my widgets page. so 
   even when you look at the site….everything is in the right place, but on my widgets
   page on the dashboard, there’s nothing, so I can’t edit/move any widgets, as 
   there aren’t any…
 * So slightly new problem….any ideas on how to get them back? seems like there’s
   just something not in place..

 * Hmm… sounds like it was a server problem. And your current problem may also be
   related to the server. Have you spoken to your hosts about this?

 * Hello Esmi
 * I’m happy it’s back up, although lack of widgets is a wee bit annoying…. I can’t
   win.
 * I’ve contacted my host, so hopefully they can help with it.
 * Honestly, I have no idea about anything WordPress anymore. It was all fine and
   then just after I put my site live it all went topsy turvy with these issues.
 * I was told my site was hacked a couple weeks back and it all started after that.
   I changed my FTP log in and wordpress password, not sure if there’s anything 
   else I need to change too?
