    Hello I just installed my copy of WordPress and I love the way it is set up. I am having a few differnt problems though. When I try to add a tag to my post the add button doesn’t work for adding taglines. I also have an issue with the visual editor. The tab that gives you the options between the editor and html does not work. The html tab is unselectable, and not only that but when I try to type something while in visual editor mode the text is white therfore I can’t see what I am typing. I have temp fixed that prblem by just disabling the visual editor in my personal options. I am also curious if there is a way to shut off the autosave option? Whenever I try to create a post it keeps hoping back to the top of my text screen while trying to type and it gets old real quick. I started writing my text on notepad and just cut and pasting to the text field when I get done to avoid the screen jumping every 5 seconds or so while im trying to type. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

    Have you tried:

    -clearing cache in your browser before viewing the updated page? To clear cache in your browser, press clrl+f5 keys simultaneously. Also, try different computers / different browser.

    -contacting the webserver if there are any limitations/restrictions?

    -making sure all files/folders got uploaded to the rihgt location.

    -deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem . If the problem goes away, activate them individually to find the culprit?

    -switching to the default theme (“twentyten”) for a moment by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue?

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    -if that does not resolve the issue, try increasing memory available for php.

    I reset back to the default theme. I havn’t actually started adding plugins yet cause I wanted to test putting up some posts first.
    I just downloaded a theme via the installer through wordpress.

    I reset the plugins folder. It acts as if the javascript itself is not wanting to operate as it should. When I try to add a tag word, nothing happens. I actually tried changing the themes to see if that would fix the problem because all my problems happened while it was in complete default. All the files appear to be in place and installed correct.

    I appreciate the help. I was hoping maybe someone else was having this same problem and it would be an easy fix heh. One can dream right :p .
    Let me know if you have any other ideas. Im gonna double check my javascript folders and see if maybe something wasn’t installed

    -Try adding this near the bottom of the wp-config.php: define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
    before this line:
    require_once

    Well I aparently forgot to look in the wp-admin/js folder cause when I went to the wp-admin folder I saw the js folder and decided I needed to take a second look and make sure the files I needed were in there. Sure enough the entire directory was empty so I uploaded all the js files and now all works well. Thanks for tryin to help a noob out =)

    All is fixed now. Thanks again!
