 * We’ve just updated a site to 3.9 which is running the Gridster plugin 1.4.
 * As a result, the visual text editor no longer works – we’re stuck with the text
   editor. When I deactivate Gridster, I see the visual editor as normal.
 * Please advise.

 * Hi,
    I’v got the same issue, no more text editor so i couldn’t give a try to 
   this plugin. …

 * As a temporary fix, I’ve edited the tinymce_gridster_shortcode_plugin.min.js 
   file, located in plugins/cbach-wp-gridster/tinymce/
 * I’ve changed every instance of `tinymce.dom.Event` to `tinymce.DOM` and although
   this does make the visual editor work again, it doesn’t bring back the Gridster
   button in the visual editor, so you can’t add new grids.
 * Only a temporary solution, but it might provide a starting point.

 * Not sure what you mean, [@airsid](https://wordpress.org/support/users/airsid/),
   but in the end I had to roll back to 3.8.3 to enable the visual editor. Hope 
   this gets a fix soon.

 * Dear gridster-users,
 * I had a long offline-period, because of personel reasons.
    Sorry, that you had
   to help yourself in the past.
 * I’m going to fix the issues in the upcoming two days and will release some fixes
   as soon as possible.
 * Best Carsten

 * Hi Carsten,
 * How are you getting on with the fix for this? It would be great to get an update
   on this issue as it’s a great plugin and we’d rather not have to find an alternative.
 * Thanks for your dedication on this.

 * Hi Carsten,
 * Any progress with the fix? I am really waiting for it to start building a new
   website for one of our customers.

 * maybe there’s other alternative for this plugin, at least that’s what I hope
 * Carsten seems not to have time for the upgrade to fix latest issues
 * as a matter of fact, this plugin hasn’t gone through any upgrades since Apr 2013
 * however, at first glance looked to be a promising tool
