Title: Switching between visual/text editor is broken loading code Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Switching between visual/text editor is broken loading code * Resolved [Nikodemsky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikodemsky/) * (@nikodemsky) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/) * So i just tried this plugin and i really loved it, just have two problems right now. * 1. Visual editor does not work at all. I have few other plugins installed, but this problem occured specificaly after this plugin activation. I’m using text editor mostly and for me it’s not a big deal, but some of my coworkers using visual editor and… there is a problem i guess. * 2. When i’m loading page i’m seeing something weird – it’s like it tries to load between few different css styles, the “right” one is loaded at the end, but i’m a bit concerned, that it might cause longer page loads with more content – i’m using enlighter theme atm. Not sure if it’s problem caused by other plugins or just this one. * thanks in advance. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/enlighter/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/enlighter/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [Andi Dittrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andi-dittrich/) * (@andi-dittrich) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506533) * Dear Nikodemsky, thank’s for your contribution. i believe your problems caused by a conflict with another plugin(s). * 1. withouot a specific description, screenshots or a testpage/testcase – i cannot figure out what’s going wrong. generally there are no text-tansforms or any other action applied when switching between text/visual mode. Enlighter just enables the second toolbar and add’s the two additional buttons to the first toolbar – no other changes happens to the editor. * 2. could you please provide an example ? EnlighterJS first loads the basic css styles which got overriden by the selected theme – maybe there is a conflict with additional stylesheets.. * best regards, Andi * Thread Starter [Nikodemsky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikodemsky/) * (@nikodemsky) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506557) * 1. So if i activate plugin and try to edit it with visual editor it looks like this: [http://s23.postimg.org/tz7t3ucuz/1212.jpg](http://s23.postimg.org/tz7t3ucuz/1212.jpg) * then if ill try to switch to text editor it looks like this: [http://s16.postimg.org/mx8n09ned/131313.jpg](http://s16.postimg.org/mx8n09ned/131313.jpg) * as you can see there’s 5 words but editor shows none and i can’t edit this page. * I need to click on text editor, close editor, then click edit on page again, to even have possibility to edit page. * 2. While loading page it looks like this: [http://s28.postimg.org/hg2lde471/load1.jpg](http://s28.postimg.org/hg2lde471/load1.jpg) * then after 1-2 seconds it looks ok: [http://s28.postimg.org/rrey61vwd/load2.jpg](http://s28.postimg.org/rrey61vwd/load2.jpg) * I’m using arconix shortcodes also – it was using `[code]` shortcode, but i filtered it in functions already. * I can give list of plugins i'm using, if it helps. * * I'm using latest version of WP. * Plugin Author [Andi Dittrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andi-dittrich/) * (@andi-dittrich) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506562) * Ok it looks realy bad…i tried “arconix shortcodes” togehter with Enlighter and everything works out of the box. * The issue of delayed loading can be caused by to much css/js files on your page– enlighter is using the javascript based EnlighterJS plugin to provide the syntax- highlighting. * It would be great if you can give me list of you plugins. One of them will crash the editor/enlighter-editor-plugin * Thread Starter [Nikodemsky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikodemsky/) * (@nikodemsky) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506581) * Ok so there’s list of plugins i’m using: * Active: * Arconix Shortcodes * Contact form 7 * Custom Meta Widget * WordPress Download Manager Pro * Drop Shadow Boxes * Easy Fancybox * Post Layout * RAW html * Smooth Scroll Up * Sweet Captcha * Tablepress * TwentyTwenty * UK Cookie Consent * User Role Editor * WordPress SEO(Yoast) * WP-Syntax(i already tried disabling this one) * WPDM – Archive Page(WordPress Download manager extension)* WPDM – Image Button(WordPress Download manager extension) * Inactive: * Enlighter * Optimize Database after Deleting Revisions * TablePress Extension: Responsive Tables * WP Super Cache(i removed and disabled all caching functions) * i know it’s hard to belive, but i’m actually need all of those(maybe except Raw html, but i need to rebuild content to remove this one) 🙂 * and error from dev console: [http://s14.postimg.org/jj4z5ll29/console1.png](http://s14.postimg.org/jj4z5ll29/console1.png) * Plugin Author [Andi Dittrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andi-dittrich/) * (@andi-dittrich) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506591) * Dear Nikodemsky, * i’ve tried to reproduce the plugin-conflict but everything works fine. * But thanks to your console screenshot i could **figure out what happens** to the visual editor: The Enlighter-Visual-Editor plugin requires a global javascript config object `Enlighter` which is loaded by WordPress’ `admin_print_scripts` hook. In your case (i don’t know why) it is blocked. This will cause an “Unknon Reference Error” (object is missing) and the TinyMCE editor will crash. * If you like to use Enlighter you can download the hardened TinyMCE.js file from here: [http://dev.a3non.org/TinyMCE.js](http://dev.a3non.org/TinyMCE.js) Replace it with the old version located in `wp-content/plugins/enlighter/resources/admin/ TinyMCE.js`. This will avoid the visual editor to crash when the `Enlighter` configuration object is not available. This means you can use the enlighter shortcodes but the Visual-Editor mode won’t work. * Maybe the first error in your console will cause the missing object (parsing error). Is there any code like `` * Should i be worried about it? * Plugin Author [Andi Dittrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andi-dittrich/) * (@andi-dittrich) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506619) * No, everything seems to be ok 😉 Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Switching between visual/text editor is broken loading code’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/enlighter/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1215872) * [Enlighter - Customizable Syntax Highlighter](https://wordpress.org/plugins/enlighter/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/enlighter/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/enlighter/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/enlighter/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/enlighter/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/enlighter/reviews/) ## Tags * [visual editor](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/visual-editor/) * 7 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Andi Dittrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andi-dittrich/) * Last activity: [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/switching-between-visualtext-editor-is-broken-loading-code/#post-5506619) * Status: resolved
