If you disabled Adblock to get around this, you should be able to safely re-enable it now.

Even if you weren't using AdBlock, this fix may have resolved your problems, so please try again after clearing your browser's cache too.

It will provide some detail as to why it was blocked, and that would be a big help to us.

Of course, you're welcome to whitelist us again after that. :)

Adblock was the issue but you only need to disable it on WordPress to make things right.

From any admin page on your blog select Tools > Adblock Plus > Disable on (name of your blog). Reload the page and you will be able to edit posts, see stats, etc.

Adblock will continue to block ads on other sites and hopefully will correct its white list deficiency ASAP.

@tsunderetan
As I understand it this is not an AdBlock issue. Adblock blocks ads and blocking is limited to removing advertisements that are technically not part of the web page but downloaded separately.

I don't believe this is an Adblock issue but a wordpress issue though. I hope the admins are looking into this. At least I didn't have to completely disable the entire adblock plugin but it's still frustrating.

You don't need to disable Adblock completely, just report the issue to Adblock and whitelist our site as detailed above.

Ok, this is really a problem because enabling HTTPS doesn't do anything and I dont think disabling Ablock is a fix because I need to use Adblock so what then? Do i have just keep disabling it when I want to use wordpress?? This is obsurd! So is someone going to fix to realy issue or what?
