Code View Missing

Code view where?

The post editor? Users -> Your Profile, top checkbox.

Actually, if you need to add code to your posts… you are better off without those tabs! Just use the plain html editor.

When I go to Write a Page or Post my tabs for switching between Visual and Code are not there.

I went to the Users Tab and made sure the box was checked for using Visual Editor and I still have no tabs about my writing box for the Visual Tab and Code Tab.

I really prefer to have the tabs. It made editing so much easier. Plus working with certain plugins made it easier.

I would just like to have them back. They were there before and they just seem to of dissapeard. I did not change any settings.

I even doubled check to see if I have it checked to display the tabs for the visual editor.

I was just in my Dashboard and made SURE that under

Users-Your Profile box is checked for

Use the visual editor when writing

Still no tabs are displayed.

When I uncheck it and save then I get tabs for plugins I have installed, still no Visual Tab or Code Tab.

This is both versions of (2.2.2 and 2.2.1) that I have on 2 domains

With it unchecked, you won’t get the wysiwyg and the associated tabs.

With it checked, now disable all your plugins (temporarily).
Anything change?

Have you cleared your browser’s cache?

Have you ensured that javascript is enabled for your browser?

Have you recently installed/updated any browser extensions that purport to block scripts or ads?

Are you running any sort of local firewall or security suite that could temporarily be disabled?

With it unchecked, you won’t get the wysiwyg and the associated tabs.
I understand I won’t get the wysiwyg editor. I was testing.
With it checked, now disable all your plugins (temporarily).
This was tested on a clean install with no plugins activated and still the same….no changeAnything change?
When checked, no change, no Visual Tab, No Code Tab
When unchecked I get small tabs for
( b l link b-quote del ins ul ol li code more lookup) No tabs for Visual or Code.

Have you cleared your browser’s cache?
Yes I have cleared cache

Have you ensured that javascript is enabled for your browser?
yes

Have you recently installed/updated any browser extensions that purport to block scripts or ads?
Not that I’m aware of I have a friend test too on a different computer and she too is not getting the Visual or Code tabs

Are you running any sort of local firewall or security suite that could temporarily be disabled?
No firewall or security

Seems this started happening with version 2.2.1 Everything was working fine before then.

I just did a search in the forums for “Missing Visual Tab” and seems there are others who are having the same problem. This makes me think that it is not just me. It also seem to be associated with 2.2.1 and 2.2.2

With other people reporting same problem would this indicate a code problem in WordPress?
Debbie

I just finished talking with a friend who used Explored 6 and a different PC. She is experiencing same problem.

I use Explorer 7 on my PC

Question:
Could the problem stem from different versions of upgraded PHP

For example WordPress was done in PHP 4 and if the web hosts upgrade to PHP 5 would this cause a problem?

Debbie

I really wish I knew how to fix this problem with the Visual and Code tabs not displaying. It is a bit frustrating in trying to create static pages and needing to add certain elements. My work has come to a stand still because of this problem.
Who do I contact???? Is this a Web Host Problem or a WordPress problem. I do not know what to do to get these options to display so I can continue my work.
Debbie

I’m having this exact same problem, and it seems like a lot of others are too.

Anyone find a solution yet? I’m on Firefox, I tried the no plugins thing, I double, triple and quadruple checked my profile settings. No love.
