 * Hi
 * I have setup a new wordpress 2.8 blog and everything works fine… I created a 
   post and then later wanted to edit it which does not fully work. If I want to
   edit the permalinks clicking the edit button does nothing. Infcat all of the 
   edits items such as status, visitibilty and publish options do not work.
 * Is this a bug or is there a fix for this?
 * BTW clicking on any of the edit option simply sends you to the bottom of the 
   page.
 * Thanks

 * The editing works ina new post that has not been saved yet. When hovering over
   the permalink edit button at the bottom of the browser I see mydomain.com/wp-
   admin/post-new.php#post_name
 * when the post has been saved and you want to edit the permalink hovering over
   the edit botton gives the url mydomain.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post
   =60#post_name and when you actually click on the button the actual url shown 
   in the browser changes to this url instead of the edit field opening to allow
   you to change the permalink

 * I just deactivated all the plugins and now everything is working fine.
 * Will have to add plugins back one by one and see which one caused the issue.

 * I have the same issue, have deactivated all plugins and still not working, never
   even used Tweetable plugin though and still looking for a solution.

 * Try [renaming the plugins folder via FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F).
   These kinds of issues have occurred with many different plugins and, sometimes,
   even continue after the guilty plugin has been “deactivated”. It’s also worth
   trying the default them to rule out any theme-related problems.
