I installed tiny-mce advanced plugin today, configured the toolbar in admin and tried a few of my ‘new features’ (using wordpress 2.7 – php5)
I played around with my latest post, thinking things are going ok – and tried adding a layer. When I did so, the interface decided to add numerous layers, and I couldn’t seem to get rid of them by deleting.
I published the post on the chance that the wysiwyg editor might have been displaying wrong. Mistake. The post elements were scattered all over the page. Sidebars were missing elements. CSS was totally off for sidebar.php, singlepost.php and there were so many things awry that I thought I was in serious trouble. I had a similar problem once before, and ended up having to reload a fresh version of css.php in order to get things to work again, but I have a lot of mods on my pages, so I wasn’t looking forward to reloading everything to try and solve all these glitches.
Then I thought I’d just delete the post, because I had only really worked on (infected) that one post… so I tried it and kept my fingers crossed waiting for it to refresh. Bingo – everything back to normal, so I quickly disabled the plugin, and I had even saved the html from the post to rework it.
To me it felt like I had unleashed a virus, but of course it wasn’t.
Anyone have a similar experience, or any ideas what caused that?
