Glad to help. First let me explain the way the post content field works in general. The visual editor on the form is provided wholesale by the WP core. To enable or disable, there is an option under the first set of plugin settings. So it’s either enabled entirely or disabled entirely. When disabled, a simple textarea is used for the post content. And with that, users should be able to enter any of the same tags that may be added to regular WP posts.
Does that help? I guess I am a little confused about what you mean when you say, “rich text but not the visual editor”. If you can clarify I will try to provide accurate infos asap, thank you.

I have disabled the visual editor site-wide for all users and that hid it.
This function worked for me.
add_filter( 'user_can_richedit' , '__return_false', 50 );
How do I hide specific buttons in the text editor? Such as del and ins, etc. Nobody front end needs to use that stuff anyways. I find tons of info on the visual editor but I can’t find anything on text editor subject anywhere.
I’m no pro and it’s hard enough to explain to newbies how to blog without giving them buttons they don’t need.
I’m not sure, the Visual Editor is not something that is handled by this plugin. You may be able to find something in the search engines though.
