    Yes sorry I missed earlier responses somehow – I can also confirm it worked for me too.

    Sorry I meant to make it clear, so given you a bit of a red herring:

    I disabled “all” plugins including UTMCE – the problem is still there – I don’t think it’s a plugin problem at all! Not of UTMCE making

    I should point out as well by the way that the file that flagged this is just 58Kb.

    Anybody – thoughts?

    Hi guys something similar going on with me. However I dont in all honesty think this is a plugin problem.

    I am getting outline box in visual editor, and nothing at all displayed in preview. The code is not stripped. What’s more and strangely if I copy the code from a previously published article (that still displays as it should) into a new post and preview it does not display. The code is not being stripped but it does not display. Hence a certain reluctance to expect plugin conflicts as both posts are subject to same.

    I have tried disabling all plugins, just in case however, but it makes no difference. Still at a loss at the moment.

    No I am fully aware of the failings of the editor in this respect. The code is not stripped in any way.

    I have done my apprenticeship with WP to know that the Visual part of the editor is just not usable. But unfortunately its not that simple.

    I have not checked the html as yet, I was hoping somebody might have had the same problem, a light would come on and they would say, such and such has changed in the newer WP release and all you have to do is this.

    This sort of problem is why WP is such a love/hate relationship.

    Anyway thanks Christine shall compare the two later and report back should there be any light. Maybe this will help someone else.

    Well is this not subject to wordpress embedding style, if I wish to use parameters such as autoplay, or set display dimensions, or if to allow fullscreen, what then?

    Yes I can embed this;

    And even were this satisfactory what have I overlooked that allows existing embeds to display and copies of them to fail.

    Repairing in what way?

    I wasn’t saying there are database problems, the errors point to script issues. Although I wonder if there were redesigned databases where tables have been dropped… I wonder. Do you know what the policy is regarding core architectural changes on the database. Do tables get dropped for instance?

    It does sound like the success you guys have suggested then, which is really annoying because I am running out of buttons to push here.

    Actually though its kind of what I want to hear although damn irritating that I am one of the guys with a problem yet to solve. For instance I hadn’t looked quantativly at the throughput on the forums before, only after my problem, so to me it seemed like there was a huge volume of issues. Thinking “shit is this normal upgrade fallout”, although WP has had considerable focus from me for about 6 months now and I hadn’t noticed any other problems except during original install and getting to grips with a new toy, but if so should I consider an alternative platform, because I cant afford the overhead. I also hadn’t realised how big the user base was, and if 4.5 million downloads of 3.5 I would guess its 2 – 3? times that number still using old releases.

    On my count of 330 per 24 hours I forgot to mention that was trouble shooting forum only.

    @esmi well to be frank. This is the first I have looked at them in some time and certainly in relation to this problem.

    And amongst other things I see I have many unrelated errors to do with a huge number of sql statements. But I wonder if this is perhaps a clue because for whatever reason the table name has been dropped from many of them. Ending up with something like this “SELECT * FROM WHERE a=b” many of these queries are ones I recognise. And have been working perfectly well in the past. And most of them will have been constructed in code.

    Perhaps a red herring but I wonder if some functions relating to database manipulation have changed causing this. Although this seems unlikely because for many it is working OK (thinking aloud)

    To get a clearer review of the error logs though I will need to perform some actions in the site, after a clean sheet with the error log, as there is just two much in there to be sure if there is anything of relevance.

    Will let you know what I find. Thanks.

    @esmi yes this is an interesting perspective – is this a published figure somewhere?

    I just did a rough count on the forum 330 new threads in 24 hours, so you could say extrapolated 10,000 per month. 0.22% ish, of course some people here with multiple threads and others that have not even bothered to post.

    I wonder if there are nay forum stats or figures anywhere.

    Is this the normal level of support demand?

    Hi Jan, glad you have never had a problem with it. I take on board what you are saying about the possibility that people who are satisfied dont post. But on the other hand I’m sure the mods will make up for this 🙂

    To be honest I dont know what sort of results I expect from this thread but it is not about my issue exactly. All be it this may not be the way to get it, but I am keen to get a clear picture of the general level of satisfaction about the product.

    Actually overall I am quite happy/excited by it, but in the main the people I hear praising it and saying that things are smooth as silk are mods. Which also isn’t balanced, as they are very likely to be biased.

    So again I say patience doesnt come into it, this is not a thread about troubleshooting but rather it is a miscellaneous thread, and my question is about general levels of satisfaction.

    How might it be possible to get an unemotional view of this?

    In another thread relativly recently a moderator’s opinion was effectivly “we dont want to know – if satisfaction is waining or growing – why would we?” As I said moderators can be a bit biased, and it reminds me that some people can act like Osterich’s (forgive the spelling if not correct) some of the time.

    For now I am hoping that others might share their general thoughts and say what they think.

    Yes I have already followed the suggestion therein thanks!

    As far as I’m concerned my site is disfunctional if posts have no images – patience doesn’t come into it. I cant wait day’s for a resolution, which might never happen. Whilst I realise that WP is not in a position to make any sort of gaurentee about response times or even neccessarily offer support, I am not in a position to purchase this gaurentee elsewhere. So I have to make the best I can of the tools available.

    My question though is valid and my question still stands to the users.

    Has this upgrade been smooth for you or has it been a headache?

    Yes interesting question – I too would be interested to know as I am looking to rollback!

    (@callmeandy)

    Gone completely basic.
    Twenty Eleven – no plugins at all.
    Featured Image – not displaying, (tried various)

    I have reinstalled by the way since the problem surfaced, either yesterday or day before.

    Anyone?
