Visual Editor missing

Those are always the worst and tough to get to the bottom. I think it’s host or PC related but I’ve never been able to reproduce what you’re seeing.

Have you tried adding define( 'CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false ); to your wp-config.php file? Make a backup copy before you edit that file.

Can you post a link to your phpinfo() output? I want to see if I can do anything on my test installation to reproduce the error.

he visual editor appears in Safari on my MacBook Pro and in Opera on my MacPro.

That’s really good news as that narrows down the issue to your MacPro.

To create a phpinfo() page, just put this one line into a text file on your web server:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

Save that file with the .php extension such as my-phpinfo.php to your wp-content directory.

Visit your site like so

http://your-wordpress-url-here/wp-content/my-phpinfo.php

And that will give you a web page of what PHP is setup for.

That’s good, I’ll install all of the Apache modules on my crash test dummy and see if I can replicate it on my iMac.

Mandatory note of caution: As it’s a holiday today (I’m in NY) it may take a me couple of days. 😉

Your problem comes up for some people, but I’ve not been able to reproduce it so getting to the bottom is a pain.

Fortunately it seems to be an environmental thing meaning your MacPro + your installation but not your MacBook + opera.
