fast fix for WordPress WYSIWYG visual editor not working or not appearing

November 22nd, 2007 8:59 am

many people have problem with broken visual editor after upgrading their wordpress to version 2.3.1, seem that it have something to do with tinymce javascripts. after tweaking and re-upload new files from 2.3.1 release and subversion it give me nothing, so i decided to upload js from previous version (2.3), then i checkout what have been changed/fixed in version 2.3.1, i found that no javascript-related bug being fixed. taking this into consideration, i decided to re-upload js file from prior version (2.3) and…walla!! my editor are back :D

so, if you still want you WYSIWYG editor back, but those stupid so-called helper at wordpress support forum keep telling you how to alternatively turn off visual editor instead of fixing it, you may try this.

just simply re-upload wp-includes/js folder from wordpress 2.3 replace 2.3.1 wp-includes/js

i hope this will help you get your visual editor back,but i may not be responsible if any bad thing happened to your site due to this solution since i didn’t know what the effect of this. but i seem working fine,autosaving work great,spellcheck doing fine. hurm… no problem at all i think [smokin]

note: please clear your browser cache after re-upload those js files. then view your write post

upgrade to 2.3.1 seem to broke my visual editor…
thank you wp dev..you fixed 20bugs then give me 1 big bullshit bug!
fresh re-install also give negative result. it’s gone!! and i’m pretty sure it got something to do with tinymce…
try to check http://wordpress.org/support/ for help..but no luck.
so to anyone who faced this problem like me, i suggest you disable visual editor.
go to User > Your Profile then untick “Use the visual editor when writing”
huh… -_-
