edit-pages.php is blank – can’t edit pages

    I have searched everywhere for days to find an answer to this problem to no avail. The admin area of the site loads fine and everything works well, including the blog itself.

    The only issues I have is that I can not edit pages, which is the entire site – almost 2000 pages. When I try to access the edit page feature (wp-admin/edit-pages.php) I get a blank white page.

    Also, when I try to add a new page (wp-admin/page-new.php), everything looks normal, except there is no input box. The dashboard menu links are on the left, and the publish and attribute boxes are on the right, but nothing is in the center of the page where there should normally be an input box for the title and content of the page.

    I can add and edit posts, just not pages. I have disabled all plugins, renamed the plugin folder, used the default theme, renamed the theme, etc all to no avail. None of the common answers have worked.

    I am using the new version of WP 2.8.4. I have analyzed and repaired the database in phpmyadmin to no avail. It shows no errors in the database. I have tried reinstalling wordpress several times, and even tried downgrading, all to no avail. I have tried upgrading database to a different version but that didn’t work either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • did you ever resolve this problem cuz i am unable to edit and save my pages

    Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-related problems?

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    I had this and ended up switching off GigPress.

    Having switched off loads of plug-ins to get things like the site to reappear, then to get posts usable, and now to get pages working again, i’m left with just Akismet, Google Analytics and a Facebook Fanbox. I’ve had to switch off all the Twitter and Sociable plug-ins just to make the site usable again.

    I guess the plug-ins will eventually get a revamp which will make them stable for use again with WP 3.0.
