If you’re using the Advanced TinyMCE Editor plugin in Wordpress (to replace Wordpress’s less-than-stellar WYSIWYG editor), make sure you disable it before upgrading to Wordpress 2.5.  It isn’t compatible with the latest version of Wordpress atm, and you might not need it … Wordpress 2.5 includes a revamped WYSIWYG editor that (so far) seems to do a great job.

It even avoids screwing things up in Safari at last :)

    [...] to Stuart Herbert, if you use the advanced TinyMCE editor instead of the builtin wysiwyg editor, disable it before [...]

    I’m having issues with the editor in Firefox. Features such as ‘add link’ pop up a blank window. Any ideas?

    I can only recommend that you switch to FCKEditor. It gives you very good control and even has a built-in file browser. I am using it now on all my blogs now and haven’t had any problems. The wordpress plugin is called “Dean’s FCKEditor”.

    How do I disable it ? I have been trying to add a new page and firefox and IE crash for reasons of a unknown script. What do I do ?

    I had never visited you blog before, but I must admit it looks great. I’ve just bookmarked it! ;)
