Almost same problem !
Since i updated to 5.1, no more access to all the editing tools… and i cannot see my text…. the letters appears in white !
Hope it will be fixed soon ??

Two option, remove ‘Classic Editor’ or downgrade the last WP to the previous upgrade. There is a plugin for this you can download called “WP Downgrade”

I was having the problem some days ago. I think I updated 2017 and other native WP themed without updating to 5.1 code.
After i got no solution, I decided to update code to 5.1
Problem persists, so again i downgraded to 5.0.3
Yet problem persists.

Just here to see advice that will be given

Also having issues with the visual editor using the Classic Editor Plugin Version 1.3 (site running WordPress version 5.1). No issues until the latest update and now the visual editor all the writing is in white so I can’t see it to make amendments or to write new posts. It makes it hard for me to use the Shortcodes plugin I use on my clients site to build complex pages.

No issues until I updated to this. Please look at this and others complaints as this is making it excruciating to put together pages for a project I am working on for a client on his site.

I can not use the new block editor to make changes (it’s bloody horrible).

Thank you

I got mine working by just clearing my browser cache. Try it

Hi @dannyogolo – tried that, also made sure cache was cleared from the site and tried a different browser. Issue is still there.
