 * I lost some editor toolbar elements after installing v2.1 and I’d like to get
   them back. The only elements I have on the tool bar is the bold, italic, morebreak,
   spellcheck and question mark. Thanks for any help you can offer.

   kicks in. it freezes out my ability to post.

 * Anyone know if this was fixed in the latest release (2.1.1)? I really want to
   upgrade to 2.1, but this is a major show-stopper for and the other writers on
   my blog.

 * I do have the same problem, and I’ve been fighting with it for several days!,
   makes be unstable!… 🙂
 * Does’nt seem the latest version is stable yet?. Is there eventually any way to
   backgrade wp to earlier versions?
 * Thanks people.

 * – Make sure you have your blog set to use the Rich Text editor. Dashboard -> 
   Users -> Your Profile -> Hit that checkbox for the rich text editor and click
   on save changes.
 * – You may have to clear out your browser cache and do a forced reload of the 
   page in question.

 * I recently installed two new 2.2s, one works perfectly but the other has no formatting
   buttons at all (though I’m sure they were there at first- I did post an opening
   article and I’m sure I’d have noticed ;).
 * I’ve done all the recommended fixes, checking and unchecking visual editor in
   profile, clearing the cache and forcing reload etc to no avail. All I have is
   the two tabs (Visual and Code) and clicking on them makes no difference at all–
   the view shows the post with <p> tags so I assume it’s the code view, but it 
   won’t change to visual. Any help will be much appreciated, though I think I’ll
   just re-install…
