[resolved] Visual/HTML Editor (5 posts)

    WP strips out HTML code if I enter it in HTML mode then hit save and/or if I switch to the Visual editor.

    The editor strips out basics like <p> or <center>. It's like it force corrects whatever I place in the editor before I even get a chance to post it.

    I've reinstalled 3.0.1 with a fresh copy via FTP and it still happens. I also tried creating my post/page from Notepad & paste it into the HTML portion, hit save without switching back to Visual, and it'll completely ignoring my html alterations once I post it. I've tried from Firefox, IE and Safari. Same results.

    Is there a reason why this keeps happening? It's been an issue since WP 2.7.

    That's just how many WYSIWYG editors work when used in combination with (plain) HTML editors.

    I also tried creating my post/page from Notepad & paste it into the HTML portion, hit save without switching back to Visual, and it'll completely ignoring my html alterations once I post it.

    Remember to press CTRL and F5 simultaneously when viewing an updated page/site. Or try emptying your browser cache. This should ensure that your web browser fetches a fresh copy of the page rather than serving up an out-dated copy from your own cache.

    Also disable/deactivate any caching plugin(s).

    Esmi, thanks for the response. I tried both suggestions and it doesn't work.

    Do you think adding a command in the css for <p> and setting a line height would help?

    Still need more help with this. Or is there a way to post posts/pages, using the same "kitchen sink" options, without using the default wp editor?
