No edit/format tool bar for posts

#1 · June 16, 2024, 9:48 pm

I need some help with this one. My site is hosted on wordpress.com, I’m using a Colibri theme and editor. The Asgaros forum plugin seems to work great except that there’s no text formatting tool bar available when posting. I found an old thread that noted to change something in the wp-config.php file and then check the error.log file. However, wordpress.com doesn’t allow access to the wp-config.php file.

I really need the edit/format tool bar to be available, does anyone know how to get this to work? Screen shots attached for point of reference.

This is my site:

I really need help with this!! I reached out to Colibri, they were very helpful and even resolved an issue I hadn’t noted here (search bar not on the same line as the nav menu). However, they say the format bar isn’t their issue. @qualmy91 can you look into this? The forum is useless without the format bar.

@letitbeep Try with Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin in Troubleshooting mode. You may have a plugin interfering. For example, minification/optimization of js files may mess them up. If you have an optimization plugin, try turning javascript minification off.

Thanks for responding, @jim, at least I know there’s life on this forum.

So I did some troubleshooting and determined beyond a shadow-of-a-doubt that two Colibri plug-ins are interfering. If anyone else is using Asgaros and Colibri, I made a screen recording the problem. I just sent this to Colibri, but I have no idea if they’ll fix it, or throw responsibility on Asgaros. Colibri has been denying they are the problem, but I’m interested to see how they’ll refute that now. Link to my screen recording below.

Of course… @qualmy91, if it’s easy to update Asgaros to work with Colibri, that would be better as I’m not confident Colibri will take responsibility.

UPDATE

Colibri has resolved the issue by creating a plugin for my site. So, now all is good.
