Periodically when I am in my wordpress dashboard, the visual editor is not working. Sometimes and not all the time. I have tried the following: Deactivated plug ins individually changed theme cleared cache uninstalled firefox, then re-installed unchecked "disable visual editor"

Many thanks for any help

When this happens, are you completely unable to type/edit in the editing area, or is there some limited functionality? Does the toolbar appear?

Hi :)

I managed to flush the DNS cache which has sorted the problem and I can now see and use my visual editor.

Thank you so much for such a quick response though. It's very much appreciated!

Have a great day :)
