Kürzlich meldete einer unserer Nutzer ein sehr merkwürdiges Problem mit seiner Installation. Wenn er einen Beitrag schrieb, konnte er nicht sehen, was er schrieb. Denn der Text des Beitragseditors war weiß. Außerdem fehlten alle Schaltflächen des visuellen Editors, und die Möglichkeit, von visuell zu HTML zu wechseln, funktionierte nicht. In diesem Artikel zeigen wir Ihnen, wie Sie das Problem mit dem weißen Text und den fehlenden Schaltflächen im visuellen Editor von WordPress beheben können.
Hinweis für Einsteiger: Wenn Sie nach versteckten Schaltflächen suchen, die Sie vielleicht in Screenshots anderer Websites sehen, dann suchen Sie wahrscheinlich nach der Küchenspüle. Sie müssen auf das Symbol für die Küchenspüle klicken, um diese anderen Optionen wie Unterstreichen, Aus Word kopieren usw. zu sehen.
Einige Websites verwenden auch das TinyMCE Advanced Plugin, um verschiedene andere Schaltflächen hinzuzufügen, die standardmäßig nicht vorhanden sind.
Für den Rest von Ihnen, die wirklich ein Problem mit fehlenden Schaltflächen oder weißem Text im visuellen Editor haben, dann fahren Sie mit diesem Tutorial fort.
Löschen Sie den Browser-Cache
Bei unserer Suche fanden wir Benutzer, die angaben, dass das Löschen des Browser-Caches bei ihnen funktionierte. Als Erstes sollten Sie versuchen, den Browser-Cache zu löschen oder einen anderen Browser zu verwenden. Es könnte sich um ein Problem mit Ihrem Computer handeln.
Wenn dies Ihr Problem nicht behebt, liegt das Problem vielleicht bei Ihrer Installation?
Ersetzen von TinyMCE-Skripten
Vielleicht ist dieses Problem nach dem Update aufgetreten? Das ist zwar unwahrscheinlich, aber vielleicht ist bei der Aktualisierung etwas schief gelaufen. Versuchen Sie, den Ordner /wp-includes/js/tinymce/ durch eine neue Kopie zu ersetzen.
Behebung mit wp-config
Wenn keiner der oben genannten Tricks bei Ihnen funktioniert hat, öffnen Sie Ihre wp-config.php-Datei und fügen Sie die folgende Zeile ganz oben nach dem öffnenden php-Tag ein.
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
Mit diesem Trick wurde das Problem bei unserem Benutzer, der dieses Problem gemeldet hat, behoben. Wir hoffen, dass eine der in diesem Artikel aufgeführten Lösungen Ihr Problem mit dem weißen Text und den fehlenden Schaltflächen im visuellen Editor von WordPress beheben wird. Wenn Sie eine andere Lösung gefunden haben, die bei Ihnen funktioniert hat, dann teilen Sie sie bitte in den Kommentaren mit.

I’ve been struggling with white text / no buttons in edit box and tried ALL the solutions. Finally, went into the profile settings: „Disable the visual editor when writing“ was UNCHECKED but I CHECKED it and hey presto everything now works (ie visual editor appears)!

WPBeginner Support says
You may be missing a file or a file may have an error, you would want to reinstall the WordPress files under Dashboard > Updates or manually using: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-manually-update-wordpress-using-ftp/

SOLUTION in my case:
An editor for a client was working properly. They wanted to get their website faster, so I tried out different speed optimization plugins. One of these plugins added into the functions.php file this line:
add_filter( ‚tiny_mce_plugins‘, ‚disable_emojis_tinymce‘ );
This somehow broke the visual and text editor, and also some buttons in the bar were missing. When I saved a content it was not stored. So I deleted this line saved the file and then the editor toolbar was working again properly.
Hope this helps you guys.
WPBeginner Support says
Thanks for sharing this possible solution

I did all of the above and nothing is working. Then it hit me as I checked my posts. The editor is working fine for posts. My issue is with woocommerce products only. Same issue no response from the visual/text tabs and the text displayed within the editor is white and can’t be seen.
Any suggestions?
WPBeginner Support says
Sadly, if the error is with WooCommerce only then you would want to reach out to WooCommerce’s support and let them know for them to take a look.

Between post body and title of post the bar for me is also disappeared. I Cleared all the Browser Caches, I installed tinymce and is still not appeared. The problem occurred when wordpress was updated and block changed classic to new one (Guthenberg one) and all turned to a miss. I don’t know what to do with it !

I tried everything mentioned above it didn’t work but when I deactivated all the plugins and started to activate one by one, the editor came, i found out that Yoast SEO ver 8.3 was breaking WordPress 4.9.8, When i deactivated yoast the editor and text came. so that was the culprit. Hope it helps!

I am having this issue. I have tried all the items in the article and none have worked. I have noticed that the problem only happens for users *other than* SuperAdmin (ie – as a superadmin I don’t have the problem but my editors & contributors do)

Please I need solutions to this problem because I have used the strategy listed above, but did not work out

How do I even get to wp-config.php file to fix it???
WPBeginner Support says
Hello,
You can access the wp-config.php file using File Manager in your hosting account’s cPanel dashboard. You can also access it using an FTP client.

Nothing worked since I upgraded to the latest WordPress! Visual Editor Button shows but not responding when clicked.
Disabling all plugins, Not change;
Including the define ( ‚CONCATENATE_SCrIPTS‘, false ); No change
Change themes to WordPress default, nothing
I am tired.
WPBeginner Support says
Hey Kevlin,
Try disabling browser extensions. You can also use inspect tool to see if there are some errors or warnings displayed in browser console.

Hi
I used the plain HTML option in GetResponse to create a simple form containing email field and signup command button. GetResponse preview form is good. Next I pasted the code in my WordPress.org V4.8 text editor. Noticed there is are a 4-5 lines gap between the fields and the command button in the visual editor. Tried deleting the spaces in WordPress page using the visual editor but somehow the HTML code got deleted too. Would appreciate if anyone could inform me how to delete the spaces between the email field and form command button
Elviera says
Thank you – it worked for me!
define(‚CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS‘, false);

fixed by removing a .htaccess file I’d put into wp-includes following a wpbeginner recommendation = #4 in https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/9-most-useful-htaccess-tricks-for-wordpress/
Tripti says
Hey
I am not able to access the HTML Text Editor. I can see the button but if I press it, nothing happens. The Visual Editor is visible but is completely blank and in some pages has just some random text in it.
I tried all of the solutions listed here but nothing has helped. If anybody could help me? Please?
Frank says
Worked like a charm – thank you so much!
Should I expect any side effects though?
Matt Clark says
SOLVED! This solution worked for me.
Adding… define(‚CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS‘, false); to your wp-config.php file just below the…. define(‚DB_HOST‘ line.
You have to do so by accessing your FTP (or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel). You can edit the file with a plain text editor or TextWrangler!
All the best,
-M@tt
Bo says
Can’t thank you enough. Adding config line brought it all back.

I’m facing similar issue. After the latest update (Version 58.0.3029.81 (64-bit), it appears that WordPress image edit button is missing when editing a post in chrome. I know that it’s NOT a WP issue because it works fine in Firefox. See attached screenshot. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Todd says
I did #2 and #3…I don’t know which one worked, but one of them did indeed fix it!! Thanks.
