# Edit page problem

 * Suddenly, out of nowhere, I can’t save my edits! I made a change, successfully,
   then decided to make another, but when I click “Update” it sends me to a “Posts”
   page and, when I return to the edit page, the edit wasn’t saved. Clicking “Preview”
   also sends me to the same “Posts” page. Waiting for the page to save automatically
   has no effect either.
 * Since everything was working perfectly then not, I wonder if it’s an internal
   WordPress problem.
 * This happened around 9:10 AM PST, 9/24/16; the same problem occurs with both 
   the visual and text editor, and with both Chrome and Firefox.

 * This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins,
   and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable
   them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.

 * Thanks, but before doing that: given that this problem occured directly after
   a successful edit, and I haven’t added any plugins or themes for weeks, is it
   still possible that’s the problem?

 * yes, it could still be the problem. Some edge case, perhaps. It’s always the 
   first place to start; get WP down to just core.

 * When I went to the Plugins page, I discovered this message:
 * _The Advanced TinyMCE Config plugin requires attention: you are running TinyMCE
   4.0 (WordPress 3.9 or newer) but the settings for the editor have not been updated.
   This can result in errors while editing, or the editor may fail completely._
 * The problem with that is that it doesn’t indicated what settings need to be updated
   and to what. I click “Advanced TinyMCE Config/Edit” and there’s nothing that 
   seems obviously editable.
 * However, in “TinyMCE Advanced”, under “Advanced Options”, there was this:
 * _ERROR: Your theme does not support editor-style.css. To use this option, add
   editor-style.css to your theme or a child theme. Enabling this option will also
   load that stylesheet in the editor._
 * It looks like this may be a problem with this specific plugin. I’m no coder, 
   though; I have a tech person who does things like this. Would you say that this
   is a plugin problem that the tech person has to handle, rather than a WordPress
   issue?

 * I realized there’s one other way to go “just core” and that’s to clear the cache;
   I did and the problem went away. How strange are the ways of the computer Gods.
   Anyway, thanks for the fast response.
