I'd guess that you have a very rare problem: your server doesn't provide the info needed by the .htaccess file and you need to replace your current .htaccess: https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussion/comment/259810/#Comment_259810

Does it work with another theme?
Did you make any changes?
Did it work before?
would result in the text-body field not showing
1. Check if you have pretty urls enabled (search the forum for RewriteUrls)
2. See if there are any Javascript errors on the console

Hi Kasper,
To me the whole Pretty Url thing feels off-topic. Why would pretty urls impact CSS or JS rendering of the textbox?
In either case the subdomain that I created points directly to the folder that contains Vanilla, so I suspect the BaseUrl should be "/". What can I do to test that Pretty Url is working correctly?
My view is that the unexpected '<' in "api/v2/locales/translations.js" stems from the '<!DOCTYPE...' at the start of index.php following "Redirect any non existing file/directory to /index.php" as specified in the .htaccess .... Is it supposed to redirect somewhere else?
My PHP configuration:
Open a discussion on your forum.
Take a look at the URL
It has
/index.php?p=/
In it
So pretty urls are not active, which is a requirement
EDIT: ADD
Note that you also need
$Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = TRUE;
in /conf/config.php
I have that line, so you think my webhost might have mod_rewrite disabled? :(
I think you did not clear /cache when you did the changes.
It look as pretty urls are active now, was not 5 minutes ago
you are on PHP 7.2 - can't you go higher?
That is right! Now I understand what pretty url does :)
However, as none of the pretty URLs point to actual files, all requests currently redirect to index.php
different content in trans.js
here on vanillaforums
The way your forum acts when opening a discussion or login/register menu - seems the same issue I had some time ago - ended up being a PHP issue - that is why I directed you at your currently used PHP version.
Changed to 7.3 - that is high as the webhost goes.

@R_J
reached an end of my knowledge area, I think
It is running Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP 7.3.2
Curl is enabled.
I'll ask the host to update but PHP 7.3 remains actively supported until the end of the year.
