Visual edit tab does not work

Look in your user setting and make sure “disable visual editor” isn’t checked.

Thank you hatefulcrawdad. The “disable visual editor” isn’t checked.

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-specific problems?

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

– re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress?

– increasing the available memory?

Thank you Esmi.

During the last 2 hours I have been following all your step-by-step instructions above. Now:

– all plugins are deactivated.

– default theme is switched.

– I reset the plugin folder to an empty one. And later to the original.

– re-uploaded the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from wordpress-3.0-latest (now in the Dashboard it appears “You are using WordPress 3.0.1-alpha-15359.”)

– installed and activated memory-bump plugin.

– increased the available memory adding this line to my wp-config.php file:
/** Increasing memory allocated to PHP */
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’);

But still not working. I am desperate. What else can I do ?. As it is a new account (I created it yesterday), can I send you my /wp-admin/ login details for you to see and check, please ??

Thank you again.

Esmi. I have found the solution. Everything is working now. I am going to activate the plugins and see if everything keeps working.

What did I do ? I followed VISUALALE advise:
Download your wp-config.php and add this line of code at the bottom of the file before the “require_once” line.

define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false );

Esmi. Is there any problem with including that line of code ?

Should I leave the PHP memory limit at 256M ?

Should I un-install memory-bump plugin ?

I appreciate your advise. Thank you.

Is there any problem with including that line of code ?

No. In fact that was going to be my next suggestion.

Should I leave the PHP memory limit at 256M ?

It won’t have any negative impact on your site if you leave it set at 256M

Should I un-install memory-bump plugin ?

You could do. It wasn’t needed apparently and I’m all in favour of using as few plugins as possible.

@josefranc
Wow It work for me thanks!!!

I just wanted to thank folks in this thread. it just helped me tons.

Same here – define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false ); made the visual editor work again. Just wondering (because I’m no geek and no native English speaker): What does concatenate mean and actuelly do???

Anyways – thanks for the solution!

@gfra
My mother language is Spanish.
But with my limited knowledge of English, I think that Concatenate means putting one thing after another, like the rings in a chain.

Thank you!..it worked for me also, however the quick edit and the image editor doesn’t work. I get a blank page when I add images but I can see the preview page. Even tried deactivating all plugins with no luck.

Any solution much appreciated.
