WP 3.9 – Visual Editor not working

  • Pristine install of 3.9
    All plugins disabled the visual editors does not work across all my browsers on 2 different computers.

    I seen this issue on many threads & forums, seems pretty definite its a 3.9 issue.
    When can we expect a fix?

  • @richardbaldock I’m having the exact same problem. Have you found a solution?

    If I use the code section I can see things but its mucking about with my short codes as well.

    Also the Insert Media button doesn’t work correctly. It’s not uploading images to the Media folder or inserting the images.

    I think from everything I have read so far its to do with TinyMCE but not sure how we solve the issue yet. I will let you know if I fix it.

    Ok I just discovered something. Turning the Visual composer off makes the Rich Text Editor work fine. So I think we have an issue with the Visual Composer and TinyMCE.

    Also found this plugin that gives us more options once its working again. https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/tinymce-advanced/

    Ok Iv discovered its an issue with my theme and the Visual Editor and TinyMCE.

    @designsimply. I have definitely eliminated the network side of things. I am 130km from my previous location, from another provider as well. Same result.

    @gem @ White Rabit:

    Ok – sounds promising – The WordPress team seem have gone into ‘disinterested’ mode so anything helpful is er.. well helpful….. ??

    Have you definitely tied it to your theme ? What theme are you using?
    I have had this problem on 3 ( includng the ”native’ 2011)

    Looking forward to your progress.

    @richardbaldock I’m using the Legenda theme. Iv spoken to them on there forum and they have confirmed its there Theme that is coursing the issue and they are working on it.

    I am also facing issues with my site https://www.mytechshout.com/ but my other sites are working fine on the same saver. !
    And one of my client is also having the same problem.
    I have tried to even revert back to 3.8 and it dint fix the problem. And also tried a fresh install and it dint work.

    I have found another possible solution for the missing tinyMCE with white on white text in editor, and unable to switch between Visual and Text editors.

    Check your .htaccess

    file for the following (or similar) code

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php .shtml .html .htm .js

    If this code exists in your blog directory or any parent directories you will need to remove the code.

    This usually happens when the blog directory is a child of the parent web site directory -Yes, even if the blog is using a different domain/sub-domain name.

    <root>
  |
  + <Site>
  |   |
  |   + <blog>

    The Solution for a working blog and allow web page compression is to remove the blog directory from being a child of the site directory.

    <root>
  |
  + <Site>
  |
  + <blog>

    Many people are using this code to enable compression to speed up their web sites as part of a movement to meet responsive design requirements for mobile devices.

    I hope this solution helps many who have spent many hours debugging this issue. I know I spent many useless hours for something so simple.
