Is there a way to modify the Tinymce editor to accept codes for text formatting? For instance, someone could type <b>hello</b> and it would bold it? Or <i></i> would be italics?
I don’t really understand the question. The tinyMCE editor has a toolbar for this so it is WYSIWYG.
If you want to SEE the html codes, or enter them manually then you should perhaps be thinking of using the HTML Quicktags editor plugin instead. Or – if you want no toolbar at all and be 100% manual input – just use the default plain text editor.
Thanks for the help. I have tinymce set as default, If I also install HTML Quicktags editor or the default editor and give the option for the user to choose that will the text formatting codes be the html codes? so strong would be bold and em italics?
in quicktags html, yes… in tinymce, you could also use the html button on the toolbar and enter html codes that way…
