# WordPress Post Editor Blank?

 * I am using the latest version of this plugin, WP, and PHP 5.5.
 * The post editor looks blank because it is giving it white text. It is also breaking
   the buttons on the top of the editor. Disabling the plugin stops this.
 * This is what it looks like with the plugin activated:

 * This is what it looks like with the plugin deactivated:

 * When inactive, the css color (#333) is coming from body in
    /wp-includes/js/tinymce/
   skins/wordpress/wp-content.css
 * When active, the css color (#ffffff) is coming from .js .tmce-active .wp-editor-
   area in /wp-includes/css/editor.min.css (from post.php).
 * We removed the plugin but just making you aware this is happening.

 * That is really odd. I’ve never seen anything like this.
    This plugin doesn’t 
   do anything with MCE or the CSS for it. I reckon there is some incompatibility,
   maybe with the theme or another plugin. Can you tell me which theme you use, 
   and the list of plugins that you use? And if it’s a commercial theme, can you
   email the zipfile to marcel @ timelord.nl ? I will look into it. Thanks for reporting.

 * Hello Marcel,
    Yesterday, i installed your plugin. It is really awesome and helpful
   for me. But today i have a similar problem as above. When i login as admin, everything
   is ok. But when i login as editor role, edior visual is blank 🙁 ( as Nikole 
   Gipps’s case) This is my list of plugin: – Contact Form 7 – Disqus Comment System–
   Easy Spoiler – Google XML Sitemaps – Image Cleanup – Q2W3 Fixed Widget – Really
   Simple CAPTCHA – TinyMCE Advanced – WordPress SEO – WP-Optimize – WP-PageNavi–
   WP Smush.it – WP Super Cache – WPtouch Mobile Plugin
 * and my custom theme.
    Thanks

 * Hi.
    My test site has all those plugins now, but for Editor everything still 
   works.
 * I suspect there is a javascript error. Could it be that your custom theme uses
   chosen.js?
    Else can you check your inspector of the browser, and see if there
   are errors in the console?

 * Hi,
    chosen.js only is used on your plugin. When i edit a post with editor role,
   there is a javascript error at /plugins/related/scripts.js: $(‘#related-posts’).
   sortable(); ==> error message: Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function(
   anonymous function)
 * Thanks

 * There is no javascript now but it still is not work.
    This only happen with editor
   role, so i think maybe i miss some library or invalid jquery version. Help me
   again, please

   I don’t know any other way to debug this, sorry.

 * Hmm, either it works or it doesn’t.
 * I tried again, on a Windows Server with PHP 5.3. Tried with FF, Chrome and IE11,
   and all work.
 * It really is something local. If someone cares about a fix, I will need login
   access to a website with this issue.
