monumentsinking

So I’m pretty much stumped. No matter what direction I takesomething is causing the visual editor to not work in both 2.7.1 (revereted back to it because at least I can edit HTML) and 2.8.6 (could see the tools for HTML editing for a bit then they disappared and text was white on white)

I’ve tried downloading and updating the files in TinyMCE and that hasn’t worked.

I’ve deactivated and removed all my plugins at some level or another and that hasn’t worked.

I’ve tried adding a line of code into the wp-config file and that hasn’t worked.

I am at a complete stand still. HELP!

Upgraded to 2.8.6 problem solved…I guess. I can now switch between the two but I don’t have the rich text formating.

This is the 2nd time we’ve had either conflict or a possible hack. Any advice on securing wordpress would be great.

I also just realized taking a look at my screenshot. I’m not getting any other tools in HTML mode (such as uploading media etc)

What I’ve tried so far…
I first went into wordpress and just deactivated all the plugins using the tool bar.
result: still no visual editor

I created a new plugins folder in wp-content and changed the name of my old plugin folder to “plugin.hold”
result: still no visual editor

I’ve opened it in FF, IE, Safari, Chrome and cleared the cache and cookies in each browser
result: still no visual editor

I went an downloaded new files of 2.7.1 and replaced the ones i currently had. Changing almost everything but wp-content and wp-config files.
result: still no visual editor

The only thing I see out of the ordinary is that the panel for publishing now ask’s to “stick this post on the front page”

By default the panel is never expanded and always collapsed. Even when writing a new post.

Screenshoot

Also when I do check “disable visual editor” and go to add new post both disappear. When I uncheck it it’s back but stuck in HTML mode.

Nope all unchecked.

I had the same issues with getting the whole you must authenticate to enter the “MAGIC” area.

I replaced all of the root files, wp-admin, & wp-includes folder files with fresh copy of my 2.7.1 install and the issues went away.

I just figured it out thank you very much it was the fact that I was putting the <!–more–> tag in the actually post and not in the code view.

I’m sorry that was a typo in my post entry sorry about that. It still just exposes everything.

fixed it … thanks for all the help

Alright it was moved to the root instead of blog but now … I can’t log into the admin it keeps pointing back to /blog which is now empty

sorry I meant cuteNEWS not lol FTP I mean it’s not a pain and I was in a rush to get it up and running after a few hours I get how it’s setup and it’s getting easier to configure the things I want out of it.

I mean I understand css if anything I dont understand how wordpress is put together. If anything I came from using cuteftp as my CMS and now to have something more semantic and better organized I’m starting from scratch. WP is beautiful built but it’s also a pain if your someone who is used to just building his own stuff from scratch.

Well I’ve got it almost working only thing is for some reaosn now my images aren’t showing up.
