Ah, thanks, that’s helpful to know. I’ll see if anyone else has got other observables that might help ,e debug this pesky problem!

Wow! That’s interesting – thanks.

Could I ask a favour, please? Could you go back to swpics.co.uk in Chrome and tell me whether it still displays OK for you?

If it does, then the problem is something to do with Chrome specifically on my internet setup, as it’s the same for PC, phone and tablets.

Many thanks,

Steve

I have fixed this by stumbling about in code (not my natural habitat ?? )

The fix was to disable Pixel-Code in my site admin console (easily.uk)

I noticed a JS error in the browser console when I tried to edit a post – syntax error (unexpected token) with a line that began “<!– WiredMinds”. This code didn’t appear in the source php file as I accessed it through FTP. I found another site which said that WiredMinds should be disabled by your site admin, so I logged on to my own site’s admin console and found that Pixel-Code was enabled. After I disabled it, the editor started working again.

So, thank you for pointing me at the way to find out where I was having problems.

Cheers,

Steve

Thanks, t-p

I enabled SCRIPT_DEBUG as directed, and when I try to edit a post, I get these messages:

I’m not a developer and so these mean nothing to me. Can you help explain what they’re telling me, please?

Many thanks,

Steve

Hi, t-p

All plugins disabled, theme changed to TwentySeventeen. No change, I’m afraid.

Well, one change. Because I’ve disabled Classic Editor, if I try to edit a post, I just get an entirely blank screen with no content whatsoever. If I re-enable Classic Editor, I get the edit screen with white on white back.

Cheers,

Steve

Hi, Jose.

Yes, I’ve tried three different browsers, and the same symptoms happen on each.

Cheers,

Steve
