Title: Quickpress and add post – not loading Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Quickpress and add post – not loading * Resolved [birdie breeze](https://wordpress.org/support/users/birdie-breeze/) * (@birdie-breeze) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/quickpress-and-add-post-not-loading/) * Hi * I just upgraded to 3.0. I use Graph Paper Press modularity theme. Hosted by Earthlink. * If I click on ADD POST – it goes to a blank page * If I go to Quickpress – the text window and controls are missing * Only the Quickpress title exists and if I click on the drop down arrow, I get a sliver of a white line below the Title Bar…. * All my plugins are off. * Ideas?

There was one there before I called. Perhaps from Arnstein. They have added me to the list and will contact me in 24-72 hours. They said the WP fix suggested was deactivating plugins pre- install. * 1. my plugins are up-to-date 2. I deactivated them before doing installs and re-installs of 3.0 3. I did automatic and also later, manual installs as suggested by esmi 4. i deactivated plugins t my dashboard and another time, within my file manager * I have memory-bump installed now * no change * Waiting to hear back from earthlink * when I do, I will find this thread but also start a new one * have a great day * birdie Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 20 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/quickpress-and-add-post-not-loading/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/quickpress-and-add-post-not-loading/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Quickpress and add post – not loading’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [3.0](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/3-0/) * [unable to post](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/unable-to-post/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 20 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [birdie breeze](https://wordpress.org/support/users/birdie-breeze/) * Last activity: [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/quickpress-and-add-post-not-loading/page/2/#post-1548507) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
