WP Edit not working properly after update WP to 4.9

You should definitely be able to still switch between visual and text modes in the editor. Do you not see the tabs? Or are you just not able to click it?

Hello again, Carrie,

WP Edit definitely works with the latest version of WordPress. The appearance -> editor screen is not part of WP Edit; it is part of WP core functionality. If it is not working properly for you; then it suggests you have an issue with server configuration not letting you edit server files.

You never want to modify core WP files. Whenever you update WordPress; you will lose any modifications and have to add them in again. Instead, we use a child theme to keep customizations.

You will want to use a custom function from your child theme to add the Amazon affiliate stuff. I’ll try to give you an example here; but not knowing your exact needs, we may need to adjust.

function add_amazon_to_footer() {

    ?>
    // Your Amazon script goes here
    
    <?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'add_amazon_to_footer' );

Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
