I tried the following:
deactivated all plugins, cleared cache, opened in IE, logged out & logged in
None of them worked.
@deletedpenguin I am not getting an error at this point, only a blank section
I was able to get around it by recognizing that editing posts have a numerical system to edit them and post so they are there for sure.
One thing to try on my end still:
I have to look into the php file itself to see which .php file it was–it is possible the file did not upload as when I did my upgrade I uploaded by “overwrite if newer” option.
