 * Hi,
 * I’m missing a function that I had in one of my other wordpress blogs. In the 
   Write Post page it was possible to do format text and insert images without seeing
   the code. It looked like a normal texteditor like word. In my new blog I can 
   format the text but I see the code and I can’t insert images in the text. What
   am I missing? Do I have to activate some rich text editing somewhere? Am I missing
   some plugin in the new blog?
 * The old blog is v2.0.4.
 * Kind regards
    Martin

 * Hi again 🙂
 * Found a option in the old blog that was activated called:
    “Users should use 
   the visual rich editor by default”.
 * Is it possible to activate this in the new version? I can’t find the option 🙁

 * I got it to work in IE but not in Firefox. Why could that be? I only see two 
   tabs, Visual & Code. Doen’t matter what I choose. The toolbar workes fine in 
   FF on my other WP blog.
 * Btw, got to work in IE by activate rich text editing under my profile in WP 🙂
