Can't edit posts after using block this ad
-
I was writing a post and saw that some of the words had become a link. I used the “block this ad on this page” and now can’t edit any of my posts. All I get is the title, then Writing Helper – no text block. How do I get back to be able to edit posts?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What browser are you using? It sounds like there might be an ad-blocker plugin or something in your browser that’s doing that. This is not a normal feature of WordPress.com.

I think andrewcpht is onto something here.
If the ads you see are found at the end of blog posts then provided you see this small About These Ads link what you are seeing is WordPress.com generated advertising.
The ads you refer to are not placed on your site by WordPress.com. They are being placed there by software on your own computer. These ads are sometimes caused by malware or a virus, but more often it is due to a browser extension or toolbar that you may have installed in your browser.
These sites have further explanation and suggestions for eliminating the ads: http://www.littletechiethings.com/2012/06/how-to-remove-ads-not-by-this-site.html http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/05/14/ads-on-wikipedia-your-computer-infected-malware/ http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/09/14/bloggers-beware-of-adware/

Sounds like links are being added by your browser – then your browser blocks the ads it just added!
You probably have a browser add-on that is adding the ad links – disable it and things should work

Thanks! I did have an ad blocker installed. I turned it off and I now have the posts back. I appreciate the help!
