I’ve got the plugin installed and on new events the visual editor does not work. Text editor does not work either.
They’re just big white boxes and cannot put mouse or tab into them. Can’t put any text either. If i try to add media it lets me select it, and add to post but can’t actually see it in the editor.
This ONLY happens in event espresso events. The visual editor is fine on other posts and custom post types.
I’m using a custom theme, the developer is non responsive.
I deactivate the custom theme and try 2012 – and everything works fine.
Unfortunately, I can’t deactivate the custom theme because we’ve done a ton of work on it and it’s an already existing site. We may recreate it in genesis or something from scratch.
But for now I need a fix.
How do i go about troubleshooting what is causing the error and then clearing it?

Hi Craig,
I’ve seen this happen on a few themeforest themes as well where there are a few extra scripts that modify the visual editor (tinyMCE) loaded in by the WP theme. What can happen is only some of the scripts get loaded if it’s a true WP post/page. This leaves the Event Espresso editor broken because only some of those scripts loaded.
I made a little “compatibility” plugin that fixes this issue for a few themeforest themes. If your custom theme has the same code that those did it will help:

If installing the above plugin does not help, then what you can do is check for any mce_buttons filters that get applied by the theme and adapt the above linked plugins code to remove those filters.

Thanks Josh. I did see that other post and try that plugin before I logged a support question here.
Unfortunately it did not work….hence the support request. Sorry I did not mention that in the request.
I understand php and wordpress decently well, but I’m not sure how to check for a mce_buttons filter.
Any advice on what I should look for?
I’ve got coda, so I can search through files easy enough, but I’m not sure where to look.

What I do is a project search for “mce_buttons”. mce_external_plugins is another thing to search for.
