Simple, option-less (yeah, that’s a feature), plugin to make TinyMCE – the WordPress Visual Editor – easier for clients and n00bs. It removes a bunch of TinyMCE features that could potentially be used by inexperienced clients to screw-up the theme developers hard work! It also makes TinyMCE remove the nasty formatting when you paste content directly in it – so, there is no need to use the “paste from Word” or “paste from text” buttons!

Client-proof Visual Editor

Now that took care of one of my pet peeves

This is one of my new favourite plugins. Gone are the days of idiots sticking hideous colour schemes and weird unwanted code into pages via the visual editor :)



Excellent plugin!

This plugin enables the Visual Editor pane in bbPress, allowing novice or non-technical users to create and format forum posts using a familiar, word-processor-like set of tool buttons.
However, novice users may not know that text copied from applications such as word processors, web browsers and email clients can contain a lot of hidden mark-up and styling. Pasting such text into the Visual Editor can lead to published posts that are garbled with mark-up code or which break the overall page styling or layout.
To avoid such problems, this plugin defaults to paste-as-text mode for Visual Editor forum post editing. Paste-as-text mode attempts to strip all mark-up and styling from pasted text before it is inserted into the Visual Editor.
If you don’t want to enforce paste-as-text mode, it can be disabled in the plugin settings.
Extended Visual Editor buttons can be enabled in the plugin settings, but may not work nicely with some plugin and theme configurations.
Note:
Even if paste-as-text is forced, links in pasted text may show up as embedded content (videos, images, external WordPress posts etc.) in the displayed forum posts.
To disable this embedded content and show ordinary link text, please switch “Auto-embed links” OFF in the BBPress Forums settings.
