I have recently upgrade my WordPress version to the latest release version of 3.0. The WordPress version upgrade installation went through well, just like the previous installation, and everything seem to be just fine.
Somehow just when I wanted to write a new post on my blog, I noticed that the WordPress visual editor didn’t want to show up at all even after I’ve tried to reload the page for several times. Still, the visual editor was too shy to show up.
So I went and searched for solution on Google and apparently, I was not the only person with the same issue. And I’ve learnt that this WordPress-visual-editor-not-showing problem only appeared on WordPress version 2.8 and above.
After applying the solution that I’ve learnt from a site, my visual editor is showing up again! 🙂
So, if you are facing the visual editor issue too, you can follow this solution. Hopefully, this solution will solve your problem, just like it’s solved my problem.
The solution is simple but a little tedious. You will need to modify your wp-config.php file by adding a line of code.
- First, log into your server via FTP (or cPanel) and download the wp-config.php file to your computer.
- Open the file with Notepad or any text editor.
- Add this line of code, define( ‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false ); , at the bottom of the file just before the “require_once” line.
- Once done, you can upload the newly modified wp-config.php file to replace the old wp-config.php, on your server.
Now, try to load the “Add new post” page. The visual editor should show up by now. 🙂
