Squiggly red lines

    Using Firefox 30.0 or chrome 34.0.1847.131 m with windows 8. All of my pages are normal except my static main page. When I open my static main page, which looks normal when viewed from the browser, I have squiggly red lines in place of the text which might be edited by spell check. When I click on select all, I can see the code for the page but can’t edit it. I have cleaned my cache, used both browsers, uninstalled and reinstalled wordpress, and disabled my plugins. Nothing seems to be working.

    Those “squiggly red lines” are coming from your browser add-ons/spell checkers – not WordPress.

    Thanks. However, now that I’ve turned off spell check, the page is completely blank. Select All still makes the code appear, but otherwise the page is blank.

    Blank at the front end of your site or the back? Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    – re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder and wp-config.php & root .htaccess files – from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.
