    I’m trying to create a new post for my blog: Gardenbug World. The account is under Buildingaschool.org
    I can create a title but when I try to enter text, the text does not appear in the box. If I press ctl-A I can see the text I entered.
    The result is that i cannot make any more postings.
    I need to be able to enter photos as well.
    Please help!
    Blog url: http://gardenbugworld.wordpress.com/

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Are you currently using AdBlock?

    If so, would you please report that AdBlock is interfering with our website https://adblockplus.org/en/getting_started and try to whitelist us https://adblockplus.org/en/faq_basics#disable ?

    Yes I’m using AdBlock.
    But what does that have to do with my blog?

    I can’t understand who you represent and what you are asking for.
    Thanks

    I represent WordPress.com.

    Several users are reporting that AdBlock is interfering with the operation of our Dashboard.

    As detailed above, please try whitelisting us and reporting the issue to AdBlock.

    I just posted in another thread but I wanted to post it here too…

    I’m having the same issue too and I disabled Adblock and it still is happening! I dont think its an Adblock issue. What else could it be? I’ve tried using two different browsers so I know it’s not just a Firefox issue!

    Please stop duplicating your reply in other threads. I have already replied to you in your previous thread, so please return there.

    Thank you for your prompt responses.
    I can’t be certain that AdBlock is the issue.
    If it is, then shouldn’t WordPress be the one to inform them in order to protect many of its customers? This is all way beyond my abilities. (I’m 70!)
    I’m not sure how to proceed.

    I now see that Stats, What’s Hot and Your Stuff are not loading even though the message claims they are.. Seems like the problem is growing! Yikes!

    This is happening for me, too. I removed AdBlock, but the problem is persisting.

    P.S. – this issue seems to only be happening in Firefox. I can edit posts and create new posts in Chrome, but cannot do anything in Firefox (which is my normal browser of choice)

    Thanks virginiatrailschristine.
    It would be nice to be able to post on my blog again….
    Glad you found a solution.

    I have adblock on my computer, and just noticed I’ve suddenly been not able to create posts either. :(

    If this is an issue, does anybody know any other add-ons to restrict those annoying ads that come up on almost every website known to man?

    If you are not using Adblock, or you disabled Adblock with no improvement, please try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

    This should be fixed now, so please feel free to try again. If you disabled Adblock to get around this, you should be able to safely re-enable it now.

    Hmmm. Not fixed here yet. I’ll try again tomorrow.

    I have the same problem and it started on the 12 June 2012: I can´t create posts (the insert field).
    I´m using Google Chrome.

    We made another slight change just now. Please try again after clearing your browser’s cache.
