Récemment, l’une de nos utilisatrices/utilisateurs a signalé un problème très étrange avec son installation. Lors de la rédaction d’une publication, ils ne pouvaient pas voir ce qu’ils écrivaient. En effet, le texte de l’éditeur de texte était blanc. Plus important encore, tous les boutons de l’éditeur visuel étaient manquants, et la possibilité de passer du visuel au HTML ne fonctionnait pas. Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment corriger le problème du texte blanc et des boutons manquants dans l’éditeur visuel de WordPress.
Note pour les débutants : Si vous cherchez des boutons masqués que vous pourriez voir dans les captures d’écran d’autres sites, alors vous êtes probablement à la recherche de l’évier de cuisine. Vous devrez cliquer sur l’icône de l’évier pour voir ces autres options telles que Souligner, Copier depuis Word, etc.
Certains sites utilisent également l’extension TinyMCE Advanced pour ajouter d’autres boutons qui ne sont pas présents par défaut.
Pour le reste d’entre vous qui avez vraiment un problème avec les boutons manquants ou le texte blanc dans l’éditeur/éditrices visuel, alors continuez avec ce tutoriel.
Vider le cache du navigateur
Lors de nos recherches, nous avons trouvé des utilisateurs/utilisatrices indiquant que la mise en cache du navigateur avait fonctionné pour eux. La première chose à faire est de vider la mise en cache du navigateur ou d’utiliser un autre navigateur. Il pourrait très bien s’agir d’un problème lié à votre ordinateur.
Si cela ne corrige pas votre problème, il se peut que le problème vienne de votre installation.
Remplacement des scripts TinyMCE
Peut-être que ce problème s’est produit après la mise à jour ? C’est peu probable, mais il se peut que quelque chose se soit mal passé lors de la mise à jour. Essayez de remplacer le dossier /wp-includes/js/tinymce/ par une nouvelle copie.
Corrigé avec wp-config
Si aucune des astuces ci-dessus n’a fonctionné pour vous, ouvrez votre fichier wp-config.php et ajoutez la ligne suivante tout en haut après l’identifiant d’ouverture php.
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
Cette astuce a corrigé le problème pour nos utilisateurs/utilisatrices qui ont signalé ce problème. Nous espérons que l’une des solutions listées dans cet article corrigera votre problème de texte blanc et de boutons manquants dans l’éditeur visuel de WordPress. Si vous avez trouvé un autre correctif qui a fonctionné pour vous, alors veuillez le partager dans les commentaires.

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
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.

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
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 updated my WordPress to version 4.8.2, since then my my text button changed from the normal one to buttons like; img, ins, b-quote, code, more, close Tag.
Please I need solutions to this problem because I have used the strategy listed above, but did not work out

for me, it is all because of cloudflare wouldnt cache the tinymce, add a page rule in cloudflare and it solved the problem…

How do I even get to wp-config.php file to fix it???
WPBeginner Support
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.

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

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
Worked like a charm – thank you so much!
Should I expect any side effects though?
Matt Clark
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,

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
I did #2 and #3…I don’t know which one worked, but one of them did indeed fix it!! Thanks.
