Classic Editor “Text” Tab Not Working

  • Since the latest upgrade to WP 5.5.1, I cannot edit the underlying html coding in the editor. I am using the Classic Editor. The “Visual” tab shows everything. Yet, clicking on the “Text” tab does nothing.

    I have deactivated plug-ins, but it still does not work. I have also tried both Safari and Firefox browsers. I use a 2017 MacBook Pro with 8gig of RAM.

    I have seen numerous postings in this forum, but have not seen any solutions, other than deactivating plug-ins which seems to work for a few people.

    Any solutions or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    You can also try switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Twenty, etc.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    Troubleshooting with your browser: Your browser can help you identify JavaScript issues or conflicts and this article can assist you in doing that diagnosis. This could help identify Visual Editor issues as well.
