Title: MCE Does Not Have HTML View Button Last modified: March 20, 2018 --- # MCE Does Not Have HTML View Button * Resolved [thegooch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thegooch/) * (@thegooch) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mce-does-not-have-html-view-button/) * I’m running WordPress 4.9.4 running Hueman Child theme, and then post editor ( MCE ) has buttons for Visual view and Text view , but not HTML view. * How can I get the HTML view back? More specifically, I’m trying to paste the HTML generated by the Amazon Associates program’s “image and text” option, but I don’t see a way to do it using the MCE. * I haven’t needed the HTML in the paste, so I’m not sure that it was ever there. Hopefully I’m just missing a checkbox somewhere in settings that will enable HTLM view in the MCE. * I’ve seen screenshots of editors with the HTML view button, so I think it’s possible to get it. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmce-does-not-have-html-view-button%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * [Farook Kholwadia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/judgerookie/) * (@judgerookie) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mce-does-not-have-html-view-button/#post-10095133) * stick it in Text view * see tip 10 [http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/14-tips-for-mastering-the-wordpress-visual-editor/](http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/14-tips-for-mastering-the-wordpress-visual-editor/) - This reply was modified 8 years, 1 month ago by [Farook Kholwadia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/judgerookie/). * Thread Starter [thegooch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thegooch/) * (@thegooch) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mce-does-not-have-html-view-button/#post-10096353) * Text view will display the raw html code instead of rendering it to display the Amazon Associates product ad. That is why I need the HTML view. * Thread Starter [thegooch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thegooch/) * (@thegooch) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mce-does-not-have-html-view-button/#post-10097504) * OK, the Text view = HTML view threw me. I’m used to HTML pages starting and ending with tags, then tag,, tag, and so on. The text view doesn’t have those tags so I assumed it was some kind of wiki markup language based on HTML. * With that out of the way, I still cannot get the code generated by Amazon to work. I tried pasting it at the end of a blog post and it’s not visible when I preview the page. The problem may be that preview cannot display it.

The book ad behaved expected so I think one of the content filters on my home network must be interfering with viewing the ad on my workstation. * I’ll retest when I get home this evening by putting my workstation on a public network to bypass filters. * Thread Starter [thegooch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thegooch/) * (@thegooch) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mce-does-not-have-html-view-button/#post-10100777) * It works!
