After thinking the ribbon issue was fixed by deactivating one plugin, it popped up again. I started playing with other plugins by deactivating them. For most, whenever I deactivated a plugin, I’d refresh and the ribbon with the “Edit Post,” stats, etc at the top reappeared. After a couple of more refreshes, it disappears again.

I repeated this over with several plugins with the same results — fixed, then reverts back. This makes me think the issue is something else but I have no clue as to what.

I tried clearing cache, different computers and same things every time.

Perhaps the WP-Visual Bakery issue? I deleted it and reinstalled it earlier today as per the instructions.

Thanks!

Nevermind. I started playing with the plugins and discovered both issues were resolved when I deactivated EWWW Image Optimizer. Any recommendations for a good image optimizer/squisher?
