The visual editor is nice when pages and posts are simple, but when you try to add special text such as php code to a page then the visual editor oftentimes has to be deactivated to edit the page. This plug-in allows you to set which posts should not use the visual editor by setting a custom field ‘deactivate_visual_editor’ to true. This allows the visual editor to be deactivated for the given post/page, but remain active for all others.

Deactivate Visual Editor

A simple plugin-in that deactivates the visual editor for a specific page or post by a custom field set by the author.

tinyWYM Editor was created to help inexperienced WordPress users create cleaner, more semantic markup, and to avoid some of the pitfalls of WordPress’s standard WYSIWYG editor. It does this by labelling and highlighting all HTML elements in the editor, creating a visual representation of the HTML being generated.
tinyWYM Editor also gives more experience users all the control and flexibility of the text editor without having to leave the visual editor. Create and edit any HTML element, add attributes, and wrap or unwrap elements all from the visual editor.
