WordPress Visual Editor

Wow, my name was mentioned on The Neal Show! Thanks Jeff! Thanks Neal!

As for the media upload problem, it may be the Visual Editor breaking the code. I remember embedding a flash video once and my post just kept breaking every time I edited it. I ended up turning the Visual Editor off so I can paste HTML code without the editor changing it.

If you’re still running a WordPress version older than 2.5, you can turn off the visual editor by doing this:

• Go to the “Users” tab, and find your author (usually ‘admin’).
• Click on “Edit.”
• Uncheck “Use the visual editor when writing. (See image above.)
• Click on “Update User”

This will then give you only the basic buttons when editing.
