Title textbox in New Post screen greyed out after PHP 5.4 upgrade

    Hi all,

    I have a cloud server where I have root access. It is running CentOS 6.7

    On this server, I have had WordPress for my own site for quite some time. It has worked great.

    I recently upgraded to 4.4.2 without issues.

    I also recently installed a new v4.4.2 blog without issues.

    Tonight, I upgraded to PHP 5.4 as one of the plugins for the new blog requires 5.4.

    On the new blog, I have just enabled, as a test, the full-height editor. It works fine.

    On my existing blog, when I try to post, the title box becomes greyed out and so I cannot set the title for any new post. Once I disable the full height editor, then I can set the title.

    I have changed back to the default theme (twenty sixteen) and disabled all plugins. This has not caused the problem to go away.

    I also notice as I was writing this that the editor itself looks quite different between these 2 blogs.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Side note: I have even gone so far as to make a complete backup of the directory my blog is installed in, delete the original directory, re-extract wordpress, and copy back ONLY my wp-config.php file. Still no change even after force-refreshing.

    Here are screenshots to demonstrate what I am seeing..

    The first is the working site:

    The second is the non-working site (notice the editor buttons are different and the DFW button is on the right end of the editor buttons instead of being it’s own separate button on the far right of the editor):

    Update: Downgraded back to php 5.3. Issue persists. This must be something in the database somehow.
