Visual Editor/Tab Not Working
-
Hi everyone,
My visual editor/tab (WYSIWYG) isn’t working. It did earlier for a few minutes, then I saved the post and the content was gone. The content is still there in the HTML tab, but doesn’t show up in the visual tab. I’ve tried to create three posts in the visual tab, and it just will not work.
Anyone else experiencing this problem?
Best,
Oh for the Love of Vintage -

I’m glad it’s not just me, but sorry you’re experiencing the annoyance also. I do hope they get this fixed ASAP! However, I can code and may just finish my post in HTML.
Best, -

Hello there,
Are you referring to the “quick posts” editor? -
I am experiencing this exact same problem…
At the time I was adding a link to an external graphic at the top of the post. I thought that might be related why the test simply disappeared in WYSIWYG but remains in html.
I’ve preserved my 1000+ word article outside WordPress until the problem is fixed.

I thought it was only me. I know the content is there but when I go to edit it the screen is blank. It was working okay a few hours ago. I’m going to sleep on it and say a prayer!
-
No, not the quick posts editor. When you click on ‘new post’ you get two tabs, visual and editor. The default is visual and it’s not working!
-
I’m having this problem too but only for one of the editors who contribute. Everyone else seems to be fine.

***headesk*** “clraity.” was meant to be “clarity” :(
Note that I have flagged this thread for Staff attention. -
Something is definitely broken… or was temporarily broken…
A post from yesterday and today do not show up in the visual editor either, but do in the HTML editor. Older ones look OK viewed in “edit” mode.
I experimented with “quick edit”, which I normally never use, and “edit”. I found that the new posting I made just now with the same text was visible when I specifically did “edit”. The old one remains invisible.
My original article I was working on today is still invisible in “visual” no matter which edit method I chose.
I will see if I can finish the new, replacement article and report back.

Now just to be positive we have covered all bases, will you folks all check to make sure that the Visual Editor is not disabled in your User profile.
Users > Personal Settings and uncheck the Disable the visual editor when writing option in the Personal Options section.

At least one problem persists…
In the replacement article post I am trying to work with it looks OK and is editable in both HTML and Visual modes… except for one major problem…
I cannot insert a graphic into the article linked from an external source through “from URL”.
It just sits there and DOES NOTHING after correctly filling in the dialog box when I click “Insert into Post”.
I add graphics to articles using that method literally in every article I write.

As is mine. Thank you for your assistance in the matter. Fingers crossed it finds a quick solution.

Okay so …
All of you have posted links to the blog in question.
None of you are using “quick post”
And all of you have verified your visual editor has not been disabled on your Personal Settings page.
Now we wait for Staff who are busy breaking software in the backroom to get to this thread. That’s a joke BTW ;) -
Do you see any improvement if you check or uncheck “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages” at Users -> Personal Settings in your Dashboards?
