Image not scaling

what version of WP are you running?

what’s the procedure you’re following that used to work? you go to the Media Library, click Add New to upload, click Edit to scale or crop? or are you going in by some other path?

if you are creating a post and want to insert an image, does it behave normally then, and allow you to resize?

Most current version.

Yes. Go to media library, upload, then edit.

I’m then trying to put it in a post or page.

do other edits work? can you crop?

on a couple of other threads i found related problems solved by removing an extraneous closing tag ?> at the end of functions.php .

https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/1597/wordpress-image-editor-not-working-conflict

if that doesn’t help, could be worth just trying the ol’ “disable all plugins and see whether there was a conflict” test.

Nothing else works. I wish we could upload a graphic here…

Create a page or post.

insert media (graphic)

page pops up

Does not allow me to crop or resize photo — and it should

does your functions.php end with a ?> ?

Here’s the picture

https://prntscr.com/dwn8p5

Here’s the end of the functions.php

add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘appointment_red_setup’ );

?>

so, what happens when you try that advice to remove the trailing ?> ?

I don’t see anything stating ?>?

Or the ?> ? you told me about originally

ahh, perhaps you’re reading in an environment where code tags are hard to see.

i’m referring to the advice here
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24043991/image-crop-editor-not-working

which goes thus:

Oh… your note had two ? in it. So I didn’t think it was the same. I’ll go copy the function.php into notepad, then change the file.

Let’s see how that works.

I must opened, in the past, a different file other than function.php

Function.php ends with:

/* Omit closing PHP tag to avoid “Headers already sent” issues. */

So that can’t be the problem.

Here’s what I did:

Removed all plugins I wasn’t using at all. (problem still there)
Removed any active plugin that I didn’t need with Avada or wasn’t using and liking (problem still there)
Removed Optimize Press from the site. Problem went away.

Have written to Optimize Press about the problem.

Thanks everyone for your help.
