 * Hi everybody,
 * When I activate the visual editor in my account settings (activate the WYSIWYG),
   the field “description” for [submit_job_form] becomes inaccessible …
    However,
   if I disable the visual editor, I have no problem, i can write whatever i want…
 * I’ve installed various WYSIWYG plugins, I have the same problem with all …
 * Help !!!!!

 * This is probably due to the WYSIWYG plugins you’re installing. Some only load
   components in the backend and thus break when used on the frontend.
 * I’d need a link to confirm this, but you should deactivate the other plugins 
   to test yourself.

 * Yes probably…I use WPBakery Visual Composer which is the WYSIWYG plugin which
   is part of my WordPress theme…
 * If it can help you, this is the html code of the description field when the plugin
   is activated :
 * <div class=”wp-editor-container” id=”wp-job_description-editor-container”><textarea
   name=”job_description” class=”wp-editor-area” id=”job_description” style=”visibility:
   hidden;” rows=”8″ cols=”40″ autocomplete=”off”></textarea></div>
 * When it’s not activated (when it works):
 * <div class=”wp-editor-container” id=”wp-job_description-editor-container”><textarea
   name=”job_description” class=”wp-editor-area” id=”job_description” rows=”8″ cols
   =”40″></textarea></div>
 * You can notice that the difference is on the the autocomplete (off) and the style
   =”visibility: hidden”…
 * I really need this plugin… Can you advise me a wysiwyg plugin which works with
   WP Job Manager ?
 * Thanks !

 * The default WYSIWYG with WordPress works [http://demo.wpjobmanager.com/find-a-job/post-a-job/](http://demo.wpjobmanager.com/find-a-job/post-a-job/)
 * Have you got a link to your page I can see?

 * I think it’s due to Visual Composer because when i deactivate this plugin, the
   description field works…
    If you have any solutions to solve the problem (html
   code or other process), i will be grateful…

 * I cannot view that page. It might be worth reaching out to the dev of the visual
   composer so they can wrap their code in an is_admin() check. It probably should
   not be loaded on frontend requests anyway.
