By default the plugin uses WP built-in/core functionality for the content editor. I think the text/visual option is determined by the user profile option “Visual Editor”. So which view a user gets is determined by their preference for that option. I’m not sure how it works for non-registered (logged out) users. But I can tell you that the plugin does provide a filter hook so that RTE settings can be customized. It is located on line 110 of the submission-form.php file:
usp_editor_settings
So that could be used to customize the editor output as much as is possible with WordPress.
I hope this helps, let me know if I can provide any further infos.
Many thanks Jeff for your comprehensive reply. It is very helpful.
Hi again Jeff
I’ve just made a $100 donation as I would like to ask you another question.
It seems that the author of a USP cannot be changed within the admin system. If I use Quick Edit to change author it appears to allow the change but the original USP author still shows in the All Posts list (and on the website). If I deactivate USP then the changed author shows. If I reactivate it it reverts to the USP author.
Any way to change this?
Yeah I’m not sure, it sounds like maybe a theme-related issue. What happens when you try switching to the default WP theme? Also make sure the plugin setting called “Disable Replace Author” is unchecked. Thank you very much for the generous donation by the way, it is greatly appreciated.
Yes you are right. Switching to the 2020 theme resolves it. So not your problem! Thanks for responding.
You’re welcome. Let me know if I can provide any further infos.
