I found the way to solve depreciated function by changing this

add_filter('wp_default_editor', create_function('', 'return "tinymce";'));

to

add_filter('wp_default_editor', function() { return 'tinymce'; } );

But the issue remains as I cannot toggle between visual and text editor.
Please I really need help.

Hello friends! I have found a workaround or possibly the solution if you dont want to go deep into codes.

This is the fix:

1. Install Visual Composer(Wpbackery or others)
2. Go to => Role manager => Post type => custom => Select both for post and page.

Thats all.

Thanks. I have found a workaround that is very good and can work in other case.

Hi, thanks for the ticket.

But the issue remains as I cannot toggle between visual and text editor.

Assuming you're talking about the classic editor, the ability to switch from Visual to Text and back doesn't depend on the wp_default_editor filter. It is either restricted by a plugin or there is a js error on the page (just confirmed it is working properly).

In both cases it would be best to search through the ​support forums for similar problems and eventual solutions.

Closing as worksforme since this doesn't seem to be a bug in core.
