    Site: http://propodder.com
    StudioPress version: 1.91
    Wordpress version: 3.5.1
    Hi, I've lost the ability to post anything. When I open an existing post or try to create a new post, all of my tools are gone. I just have the Add Media tab.

     I cannot select the main text window and cannot change between Visual and Text.
     I've tried turning all plugins off > no effect.
    I've tried updating to latest version of WordPress > no effect.

    I've upgraded to latest version of StudioPress (1.91) > no effect.
    Not sure why this happened – no upgrades were made prior to the problem being detected. All of the posting tools were just missing one day.
    I've attached a link to a screen shot I took of my post page so you can see what I'm seeing:

    Any help would be appreciated.

    anitac, thank you for your response. I was just coming back here to note that I did find the problem – it's an upgrade issue with WordPress 3.5. What it's trying to do is load the images before the text tools and a bug in there is glitching it up.

    I did find the answer in the same forum you're referring to, but on a different thread:

    Add one line to the WP_Config.php. Worked for me:
    define('SCRIPT_DEBUG', true);
    Add that line right before:
    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
    Not my solution, I just found it somewhere.

    That worked.

    I downloaded the wp-config.php script from my site
    Made a copy and labled it 'wp-config-orig.php' in case this didn't work and I needed to return my config file back to its original settings
    Added the line of code (above) in the spot where suggested (which happens to be the last line of code).
    Re-uploaded the config file and overwrote the existing one
    Reloaded my post page

    And viola, I have my tools back. 🙂
