I had issues with Ashford breaking the visual editor. There are a number of other people who have experienced this defect. See 2.5 Visual Editor/TinyMCE problems.
I thought this was an issue with my theme’s functions.php.
However I solved the issue by editing the wp-config.php file. I used the One Click WordPress install from Dreamhost and WPLANG is blank.
define ('WPLANG', '');
So I made this change to the wp-config.php file.
define ('WPLANG', 'en_US');
My belief is that this problem is a WordPress issue rather than a defect caused by this theme. Please add a comment here or report a bug — if you trace this issue to Ashford’s code.
I am still seeing this issue. Right now I’m trying to rule out the theme code as the cause.
It was a bug with my functions.php code. It is fixed for v0.1.2.
There are times when the visual editor is broken — however, in this case, it was the theme’s code.
I’ve just installed Ashford Pro and am using the latest WordPress and TinyMCE Advanced. Visual Editor works fine with TinyMCE advanced disabled, but when enabled its broken. Any ideas?
