  oh please help me, this is really getting in to me! Why is it and what can I do: for some time now when I want to write a new post to my blog, THE ONLY OPTION IS TO WRITE IT IN THE CODE STATE! This is starting to drive me crazy!!!

  You know, if I add e.g. a photo, it automatically has the tags around it. It would be SO pleasent to write in the normal mode and then if needed, go to the code section to add or change the code itself.

  What is this? Is it possible to change “normal”??? The one who answers so that the problem is solved, will get a (virtual ;O) ) wonderful KING SIZE bar of chocolate!

  This is a common problem. For some reason, the visual editor turns itself off sometimes. Go to your Dashboard and under Users you can re-tick the box for it.

  I’m having a problem getting the View (html) mode to show at all, and I use it a lot. So, my post is just stuck there and I can’t update it. Why I try it keeps telling me that if I click away I will lose changes. I don’t car any more as long as I can work on it again. Half of the page has gone bold (so presumably I selected too much at some time). That I can cope with when I get back in there – I’ll just unbold it all. But for now I can’t even get it to take any changes at all.

  Something seems to be stuck, but the Rich Editor is still on in my preferences.

  Does anyone have any ideas?

  Thank you.
