Title: Visual Editor crashed Last modified: March 27, 2019 --- # Visual Editor crashed * [galphath](https://wordpress.org/support/users/galphath/) * (@galphath) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-editor-crashed/) * Hello. Yesterday I downloaded, installed the latest WP version and stared creating a new theme; I could create different pages with the visual editor on a local host without problems however when I started to work again today the visual editor started crashing whenever I want to edit a text on any page. * Things that I had tried already: – Disabled all plugins – Changed to a default theme – Editd wp-config to turn the concatenate scripts – Edited wp-config again to see the issue on the console * This is the console log: First error when opening the page to be edited: * ```

and this fixed the issue until now. * Thank you for your time.
