# Visual Editor Not Working 4.3.1

 * I have recently updated WP to 4.3.1 and now have found that the visual editor
   is not working any more. (tabs for text/visual are there but tooltips are missing,
   additionally the Visual editor has space for typing but all the information is
   blanked out).
 * Things **I HAVE TRIED**:
    – Disabling the visual editor and re-enabling in user
   controls – Deactivating ALL Plugins – Changing theme to 2012 which actually made
   it work again (Does this mean the problem is with my current theme? (I am using
   The 7) – Activated script debugging in wp-config.php the warning in the console
   is as below
 * “load-scripts.php?c=0&load[]=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils,jquery-ui-core,
   plupload,farbtastic&ver…:5
 * Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental
   effects to the end user’s experience. For more help, check [http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/.&#8221](http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/.&#8221);
 * This has all happened since updating word press to 4.3.1
    Any help on resolving
   this visual editor issue is much appreciated

 * Yes, that means that a function conflict in your preferred theme is breaking 
   the visual editor.
 * Since that is a commercial theme, we ask that you please go to their official
   support channel, so you can get support from the people who know it best.
 * [http://support.dream-theme.com/](http://support.dream-theme.com/)
 * Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products, so they would
   not know why it is not working properly. Other community members who may have
   faced your issue might be able to help you but your best bet is your product’s
   developer. Keep in mind we encourage you to use the official support venues, 
   as it allows the developers to be aware of issues with their code and gives back
   to the community in a more robust way.
