Title: Problems after installing WP 7.0 Last modified: June 6, 2026 --- # Problems after installing WP 7.0 * [lonagaikis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lonagaikis/) * (@lonagaikis) * [2 days, 12 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/) * Hi There, * I think I’m not the only one currently experiencing issues after installing WP 7.0. * At this point, I’m feeling it in the block editor, which only appears in a very rudimentary editing mode (no block options at all), and in Mail poet, which won’t show emails or subscribers due to a “permalink” issue. * The “Read this first! WordPress 7.0 – Troubleshooting” is kind of useless. There is, for example, no “**Visual Editor**” button that could help with the presentation mode (as far as my research, this button was eliminated in version 6.8 🤷‍♀️). * I’m grateful for any help how to solve these issues quickly. * Many thanks! * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblems-after-installing-wp-7-0%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * Moderator [threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/) * (@threadi) * [2 days, 9 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18930440) * I’m a little surprised by your editor’s display. Could you please show me a screenshot of it?

I’m not sure exactly how your content should look, since I’m not familiar with your website. However, the styling is determined by the theme you’re using. It might not be compatible with WordPress 7.0 yet. Which theme are you using? * By the way, you should post your question about the Mail Poet plugin on their support forum: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpoet/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpoet/)– they know the plugin’s features best. * Thread Starter [lonagaikis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lonagaikis/) * (@lonagaikis) * [1 day, 9 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18930951) * I’m using a variation of Minnow Version: 1.0.5 By [Automattic](https://en-gb.wordpress.com/themes/). * “czirp czirp Version: 0.1 By [Laz](https://wordpress.com/themes/) Minnow Child Theme This is a child theme of **Minnow**.” * It’s a very clear design, and has covered our needs in the past 15 years. I’d be saddened to have to change it now, and actually, I don’t have the capacities to redesign my website right now. * Moderator [threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/) * (@threadi) * [1 day, 8 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18930967) * [Minnow ](https://wordpress.org/themes/minnow/)itself was last updated 11 years ago. It’s highly likely that it’s not compatible with WordPress. And yes, switching themes would solve your display issue – but you can also ignore it for now, since it only affects your view in the editor. However, given the age of the theme, it’s only a matter of time before other problems arise, such as incompatibility with the PHP version you’re using. * Thread Starter [lonagaikis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lonagaikis/) * (@lonagaikis) * [13 hours, 21 minutes ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18931603) * Is there no way to go into Minnow’s source code, and update that? * The actually much greater issue I have, is that I cannot access mailpoet subscribers nor emails. Is there experience in the forum on how to fix that? I supposedly have to change my permalinks, but will this really resolve the issue? * Thanks! * Moderator [threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/) * (@threadi) * [13 hours, 3 minutes ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18931617) * Of course, you can try asking this question in Minnow’s support forum to see if you can find someone who can help you: [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/minnow/—but](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/minnow/—but) I think the chances of that are pretty slim. * Alternatively, you can also look for someone who can assist you. You can find someone like that here, for example: [https://jobs.wordpress.net](https://jobs.wordpress.net) * As for Mailpoet, as I mentioned above, I would recommend asking in their support forum: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpoet/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailpoet/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) You must be [logged in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblems-after-installing-wp-7-0%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to reply to this topic. * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 8 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/) * Last activity: [13 hours, 3 minutes ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-installing-wp-7-0/#post-18931617) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
