In reply to: WordPress ate my HTML codeThanks guys.
@nouvellerI’m afraid I need to allow my non-techy users to use the Visual Editor so I can’t turn it off (and I don’t really want to either – I just want it to stop destroying my code!)
@jdb – can see how that might help in some ways, but if I need to mix html and text in a page my non -techy users can then not edit the text without editing mynewage.php – correct?
I am hoping there might be an answer that preserves the flexibility of having a text editor with formatting and the ability to add html coding.
Before I found WordPress I would never have imagined in a million years that this would be a problem. 🙂

In reply to: WP stripping out my XHTML between HTML and Visual views?!Assuming that you are still using the default editor (tiny-mce) you could add the TinyMCE Valid Elements plug in and then define your span class tags in that.
This html stripping is a royal PITA for teh growing number of us who are trying to use WordPress as a web design tool that allows multiple people to manage content. Yeah OK I know it’s not WP’s primary purpose but if it wasn’t for this irritating problem it would be an absolutely ideal tool.
As far as I can tell the rationale behind it is to prevent code injection – is that correct. If so would it not be possible to have an editor that doesn’t strip code for posts/pages and a BB code editor for comments? Is that a stupid idea? It looks like that’s what we are using here after all.
