Title: Can’t post message Last modified: March 11, 2017 --- # Can’t post message * Resolved [interactiontalks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/interactiontalks/) * (@interactiontalks) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/) * Whenever I try posting, an error message comes up saying that I don’t have any content in the message box: * “You must enter a message.” * I’ve tried it on different browsers and also using guest posting. The same message comes up.

Especially caching-plugins can lead to a lot of failures with dynamic content-plugins like a forum. * Can you check this by disable other plugins and changing to another theme for testing purposes? * Thread Starter [interactiontalks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/interactiontalks/) * (@interactiontalks) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-8905222) * Thanks for the reply. I deactivated all the plugins but same error message appears. * How do I change to another theme to test? If I activate another theme and change back to my current theme, do I lose all my custom settings for my current theme? * Thread Starter [interactiontalks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/interactiontalks/) * (@interactiontalks) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-8905224) * I tried disabling all plugins and nothing’s changed. * If I try changing to another theme for testing purposes and deactivate my current theme, when I reactivate my current theme, will I lose all my custom settings( including modifications to files)? * If so, can you please suggest a way for me to test without doing that? * Plugin Author [Asgaros](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asgaros/) * (@asgaros) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-8905324) * [@interactiontalks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/interactiontalks/) * I dont think so that you will lose modifications, but it depends on your theme. You could do a backup or make a local copy and test it there. * [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/) * (@bengabbay) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9070376) * Hi, * I’m having exactly the same problem as interactiontalks. I’m using Divi as my theme, but even after I switched to the WordPress default theme and deactivated all of my plugins, the problem persists. Oddly enough, the reason I tried Asgaros was because I had exactly the same issue with a similar plugin, WPForo. (I will happily use Asgaros if the issue can be resolved here.) Could this be a widespread incompatibility issue between TinyMCE with WP? * Thank you!

I know that there are currently some problems when using smileys inside of posts, but this seems to be a database-problem (not allowed characters). * Anyway: Is your WordPress core and other plugins/themes up2date? * Which browser are you using? * Which version of PHP is running on your server? * [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/) * (@bengabbay) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9070821) * Thanks so much for your prompt response. * Yes, it occurs even with the simplest input (“test”, or some lorem ipsum) and all my plugins and themes are up to date (and the problem persisted even when using default themes and all plugins disabled). I’m using Chrome 57, but the problem also exists on Firefox 50. I’m hosted with 1&1 running PHP 7.0. * EDIT: If it’s of any help, it looks like there are 3 javascript errors coming up in relation to getting the TinyMCE script from cloud.tinymce ([https://cloud.tinymce.com/stable/plugins/wordpress/plugin.min.js?wp-mce-4506-20170408](https://cloud.tinymce.com/stable/plugins/wordpress/plugin.min.js?wp-mce-4506-20170408)) - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/). * Plugin Author [Asgaros](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asgaros/) * (@asgaros) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9070887) * How does it come that the TinyMCE files are coming from cloud.tinymce? Are you not using the default-editor of WordPress? * [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/) * (@bengabbay) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9070943) * I wasn’t aware that I could make a distinction between cloud.tinymce and the default editor. Can I change this somehow? This is probably where the issue lies. * I just remembered I was importing TinyMCE for another plugin in the site but I thought that would have went away when I disabled the plugin; maybe not. I’m going to look into it now. * EDIT: Everything is solved. The issue was because I had hooked my own version of TinyMCE into the website head and it was causing conflict with the default wp-editor. Sorry for bothering you with an issue that was ultimately my own, but thanks for your prompt attendance and for nudging me in the right direction. 🙂 - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/). - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [bengabbay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bengabbay/). * Plugin Author [Asgaros](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asgaros/) * (@asgaros) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9071171) * I am happy to hear that everything is working now! 🙂 Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘Can’t post message’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/asgaros-forum/assets/icon-128x128.png?rev=1546717) * [Asgaros Forum](https://wordpress.org/plugins/asgaros-forum/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/asgaros-forum/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/asgaros-forum/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/asgaros-forum/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/asgaros-forum/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/asgaros-forum/reviews/) * 10 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Asgaros](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asgaros/) * Last activity: [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-post-message/#post-9071171) * Status: resolved
