Can’t access/edit existing Page

    In WP Admin I can’t edit or access one of the Pages in my site. I think the issue is related to a recent upgrade to 2.8.

    All the other Pages can be accessed/edited in the usual way. When I tried to edit this particular page, at first the Visual editor toolbar did not display. I read some of the resolutions on the Web — and decided to reinstall 2.8.

    Now, when I click on Edit for that page, the screen is completely blank. Nothing there.

    It still displays properly on the site, so the code is there somewhere. Suggestions?

    Typically, it is the most highly formatted page on the site and I am loathe to rebuild it.

  • We are having the exact same problem on a WP 2.7.1 site. For us it’s like 4 out of 200+ existing pages that have a completely blank screen.

    I turned off the visual editor and also did an upgrade from 2.7 to 2.7.1 and it didn’t help.

    Hopefully someone can help us!!!

    I resolved this issue at the cost of losing three plugins.

    I did a bulk deactivation of all Plugins, then activated them one at a time. After each activation I checked whether I could edit the one Page which previously had displayed as a completely blank screen.

    It turned out that three Plugins produced the blank screen effect:
    – WordPress Database Backup Ver 2.2.2
    – WP-RelativeDate Ver 1.5.0
    – WP Security Scan Ver 2.7.1

    When these were deactivated, the Page edit interface for the problem page was normal; when any them were activated, the page displayed blank.

    I had noticed that the daily auto backup controlled by WordPress Databse Backup had stopped working since I upgraded to WP 2.8. Though how these three plugins interact with the edit interface of one Page and not others boggles my mind.
