ah ha. very helpful. thanks everyone!

I didn’t have the same problem as you.

For me it was Javascript not working anywhere in my dashboard. sorry!

I had the same problem with dashboard at first – javascript wasnt working. Everything was just in one column and nothing really worked.

I was using firefox, which apparently doesn’t respond well to wordpress. I then switched over to IE and that worked fine. Also, when you’re in IE (or some have had success with Safari) try this to make the javascript work:

Plugins<
Find new<
search – “Google libraries”
then install that plugin. It should fix all, if not, most of your javascript problems. worked for me.

Apparently this problem has existed for months. I posted a thread with the same problem a few weeks ago with no solution. Also searched and saw that there were many with this issue months and months ago.

I don’t understand how WordPress can even bother releasing something that has so many bugs in it. I, like many of the people before, am a completely FRESH wordpress user. New database, new website, new everything.

I tried everything that kvcs tried:
Different browsers
Deactivating and deleting plugins
yada yada yada. None of it works.

Not to mention that none of the javascript on my admin screen works AT ALL in FireFox.

I’ve never ever had this much trouble with a downloadable script or program. I’m really disappointed with wordpress so far, I thought it was supposed to be the best. And how come no one has figured out a fix for all of this yet?

I’m not using the default theme, but even when I was, it didn’t work. And I do have javascript enabled.

*bump*

Didn’t work

??

-I disabled the plugins, and the dashboard page is still messed up.

-I was already on the default theme, so I tried a different theme, still didn’t work.

Thanks for the help though. Any other suggestions?

-I have the latest version – so thats not it.

-Do you mean plugins in WordPress or my browser?
if wordpress, how would I do that?

-Also, if I need to add the code, how would I do that?

Sorry for seeming so out of the know, I literally just uploaded and have no idea how to do anything.
