    I regret upgrading my WordPress. It used to work fine, but after upgrading I found the new features to be annoying. The automatic text editor screws up the paragraphing and etc. Please tell me I’m just dumb and it can be turned off. Plus now youtube videos doesn’t work anymore. I’ve tried a few plugins but it still didn’t work. Is there anyway to install the old versions again???

  • I would also like to know how to turn of the automatic editing as it screws up things for me to.

    However I love the rest of it!

    Turn it off at:
    admin -> Users -> scroll to bottom left
    uncheck box for visual rich editor

    EDIT: Beaten to it!

    From the dashboard, click Users.

    On the “Your Profile” tab, scroll to the bottom.

    Remove the tick from “Use the visual rich editor when writing” and click “Update Profile”.

    Your edit page will now be more like the 1.5 version.

    Ooooo..thanks!!! Can’t believe I didn’t see that! They had one in the Options so I thought that was it. They should have made it clearer. Anyway thanks again!

    Well I would like to use the editor, I just wish it wouldn´t cut my blank lines between paragraphs as I ad them just to improve readability. Is there a way to do that to?

    @falke – you can add something to your style sheet to provide spacing for your paragraphs. Something like .storycontent p {padding-bottom: 10px} should be a start.

    When using the wysiwyg editor, I’ve found that hitting enter TWICE well get me paragraphs seperated by a blank line. (aka <p> .. </p>). Hitting enter once will get me a <br />

    Hey Handy I haven’t used the rich editor in forever. My regular editor does the same thing for me. Guess that’s why I’m bewildered when folks have this problem. :>)

    @miklb, thanks for that tip!

    I will try it straight away.

    However, it think it would be a good idéa to be able to turn of this code cleaning that removes repeated blank lines as I think many people writes in other programs and just copy/paste. They will probably get iritated when WordPress changes the looks of the articles.

    Maybe you could just add a button for cleaning the code, we have that in out webpublishing tool at work.

    Thanks for you tip!
