Hey Skaks, could you tell me the following?
* What version of IE you’re using
* What version of WP you’re using
* What version of bbPress you’re using
I’ll see if I can duplicate the problem.
Hi Skaks,
I’ve tested in both IE11 and Edge using WP 4.4, bbPress 2.5.8 and the Twenty Sixteen theme, and in both cases I can enter text successfully in the TinyMCE box.
In the absence of further info I’m going to mark this thread resolved.

Hi,
i’m using:
* IE10
* WordPress 4.3.1
* bbPress 2.5.8
The only difference with your test is the theme; i’m using Medical Lite theme. Could this be the problem?
Thanks for your responce and sorry for the dalay.
Regards.
Hi Skaks,
I’ve just tested with IE10, WP 4.3.1 and the Twenty Fifteen theme and it’s working fine, so it’s almost certainly an incompatibility with the Medical Lite theme (perhaps it’s loading some conflicting CSS or JS?)
A weird and possibly related issue I’ve seen occasionally (in the admin back end rather than bbPress) is with tinyMCE edit boxes showing up as empty when they aren’t, because they display their content using white text on a white background. (Selecting the “empty” content by dragging the mouse, so that the background changes to highlight colour, reveals the text.)
I’ve generally been able to work around this issue by using the “Use Google Libraries” plugin by Jason Penney, which makes the edit boxes “normal” again. (I assume this might be because it affects the load order of scripts…) Might be completely unrelated to your theme’s issue, but might be worth a shot?
I am having the same issue but I have narrowed it down to a bug when threaded replies is enabled.
If you try to reply to a reply you cannot enter text in the text field.
