Cannot add new post wordpress

Frustrating! Let's troubleshoot the issue together. Here are some common reasons why you might not be able to add a new post in WordPress:

  1. Plugin conflict: A plugin might be interfering with the post creation process. Try deactivating all plugins and then try adding a new post. If it works, reactivate the plugins one by one to identify the culprit.
  2. Theme issue: Your theme might be causing the problem. Try switching to a default WordPress theme (e.g., Twenty Nineteen) and see if the issue persists.
  3. Permalink settings: Ensure that your permalink settings are correct. Go to Settings > Permalinks and click "Save Changes" to update the settings.
  4. Post type: Make sure you're trying to create a post of the correct type (e.g., article, page, etc.). Check the "Post Type" dropdown menu in the WordPress dashboard.
  5. User role: Verify that your user role has the necessary permissions to create new posts. Check the "Roles" section in the WordPress dashboard to ensure you have the correct role.
  6. Database issues: Corrupted database tables or data might be causing the issue. Try running a database repair tool like WP Database Repair or WP Repair.
  7. File system permissions: Ensure that the file system permissions are set correctly. Check the permissions for the WordPress installation directory and the wp-content directory.
  8. Server-side issues: Server-side issues, such as a slow server or a resource-intensive plugin, might be causing the problem. Check your server logs for any errors or warnings.
  9. WordPress version: Ensure that you're running the latest version of WordPress. Update your WordPress installation if necessary.
  10. Browser issues: Try using a different browser or clearing your browser cache and cookies to see if the issue persists.
