    I’ve recently updated to wordpress 3.9, and visual editor broke.

    I’ve tried after deactivating all of the plugins. But Visual editor’s visual section is showing ‘blank screen’.

    I’ve also tested User Profile, its not deactivated from there.

    Kindly suggest some fix.

    Same problem here.
    I have MailPoet plugin installed, tried to disable it but no lucks.
    It’s for sure a plugin that conflicts with the core of WordPress but, which one?

    Thanks.

    That’s the best way to get attention to your problem. This topic was resolved already.

    Visual editor doesnt work in one of my websites when i updated it to version 3.9 so i have to switch back to 3.8.3 to make it work again.

    In another one of my website, visual editor works but when i upload an image and click insert into post it doesnt work the first time. I have to goto “Add media again” and choose “insert into post” twice. What a drag.

    Same thing here. After the update the visual editor stopped working and i DO NOT have MailPoet installed so other plugins may also be causing this to malfunction.

    If you don’t have the MailPoet Newsletters plugin, or deactivating that plugin didn’t resolve the issue, then it doesn’t look like you are experiencing the same issue.

    I hate disabling all plugins. Here is one culprit causing the problem: WP Admin Custom Page

    TinyMCE updated already so it should still be okay.

    I performed the update from WP 3.8.3 to 3.9 using Softaculous interface in cPanel and after the update some functions of the visual/text editor stopped working. Disabling all plugins and activating the default 2014 theme did not solve the issue.

    Turning on script debugging according to the instructions on this page http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors seemed to solve the issue but leaving my production WordPress installation with script debugging turned on does not seem ideal.

    The problem seems to be that some legacy files are not being updated correctly by the Softaculous update script.

    Make sure you create a backup of your original installation before trying to reinstall WordPress

    To solve this issue, I installed a fresh wordpress installation to another (test) folder on my website and setup a subdomain to point to the new installation. Then I copied the original wp-content folder from the broken WP installation to the new test folder and exported the database from the broken installation to the new installation (updating the home and site options to point to the new subdomain). The new site worked fine including the editor was working correctly.

    After verifying that WordPress was working with a fresh installation on the test site, I simply copied the contents of the fresh (test) installation folder into my original folder, replacing the original files (make sure you backup your wp-config.php file so you don’t accidently replace it with that of the new installation). After copying all the files from the new installation to my original installation folder, everything was working fine! (with all my original plugins and theme still activated).

    This leads me to believe that the Softaculous update script missed some files during the upgrade process. I’m not sure if the same issue would occur if I ran the update script in WordPress directly or if I performed a manual update according to the instructions on this page https://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress.

    So if you are using Softaculous and you experience this issue, you may want to try to perform a manual update of your WordPress installation (always create a backup before you do this).
