"Edit" and Other Links/Buttons in Editor Not Working

  • After updating to WP 4.4.2, many of the buttons and “Edit” links in the standard editor have stopped working. Reinstalling WordPress, updating plugins, disabling plugins, and more did not work.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Try deactivating *all* plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Twenty Sixteen theme to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    If that doesn’t work, try adding define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false); to your wp-config.php file just below the define('DB_HOST' line.

    To do so, access your server via FTP or SFTP and edit the file with a plain text editor.

    Thanks for your help. This issue may be limited to only one of my computers – I am troubleshooting further.

    Ah, if so, please make sure that your browser is up to date by visiting https://whatbrowser.org/

    If it is not, please try updating your browser or switching to a different browser.

    If it is, please do these two things:

    1. Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies.

    2. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

    Please let us know how each step goes for you, and which browser (and version of) you’re using if you’re still having trouble.
