 * When I try to write a post, I have only the choice to use HTML view. The Visual
   view doesn’t appear. How can I activate the Visual view with all the options (
   bold, italic, underlined, etc.)?
    Thank in advance.

 * Go to Users -> Your Profile.
    Top option is about using Visual Editor. Is yours
   checked?

 * Thanks HandySolo! 🙂
 * I don’t understand why this option was unchecked. It’s the first time I go there.
 * I have the Bold or Italic options but how can I get the others options like Underlined,
   Paragraph, etc.?
 * Thank (again) in advance.

 * Did you recently upgrade from an older version of WP? If so, you may want to 
   try clearing your browser’s cache to see if you get more toolbar buttons.

 * Yes, I had 1.5.2 and now I use 2.5.1
    Sorry, HandySolo, but how do you clear 
   this browser’s cache? (Firefox 2.0.0.14)
 * Thanks again.

 * While on the Post Write page hit ctrl-F5 to force a full refresh of the page.

 * Doesn’t work. 🙁
    The only options I see are: Bold, Italic, Strikethrough, Unordered
   and Ordered List, Blockquote, Align, Insert link, Unlink, Insert image, Insert
   more tags, Spellchecker, Fullscreen mode and Kitchen Sink. That’s all.

 * Sounds about right.
    Have you clicked “Kitchen Sink” yet?

 * 😀 Many thanks HandySolo. Everything’s ok now.
    I have to say that “Kitchen Sink”
   was not an obvious for me. 😉 Have a nice day!
