We just got done like 2 minutes ago with a new plugin that you are going to want to download and use if you have to toggle between the WYSIWYG editor and the basic editor in WordPress a lot.
Who’s it for?
People who use any version of WordPress that makes you go to Users window to toggle between the two different editors.
What’s it for?
Video bloggers or anyone who runs an occasional or frequent video with embed code from YouTube or any of the other popular video sites.
People who have to turn off the WYSIWYG advanced editor in order to prevent it from breaking the embed code when you hit “Publish”.
With the latest versions of WordPress you now have to go in and do one more click every time you want to turn the visual editor off. So this plugin becomes even more necessary.
What does it do?
Puts a checkbox right in your post area at the top so you can easily, with one click, switch editors depending on what kind of post you want to make.
For video post: Uncheck the box.
For regular post: Check the box
It automatically switches saving you time going over to Users and clicking around just to turn off the visual editor.
Its been bugging the heck out of me for awhile now. Now you can do something about it!
Installation
- Download the Toggle Visual Editor WordPress plugin
- Unzip it.
- Upload it to your plugins folder.
- Go to your plugins admin in WordPress and turn it on.
- Go to “Write” and see that you have a new check box at the top to toggle between the editors.
It works with both posts and pages.
Enjoy!
