Full Version: How to make 'Source Mode' the default editor
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
For clarification, I'm talking about the option, which you can control in your profile options, that makes it so that your editor would take the code of something and transplant it directly, rather than immediately convert it. Is there an option I am failing to see in the ACP?

As an example, if I copy something from googledocs into a forum post, it takes all the formatting; text size, color, font, everything. 

With source mode on, it only takes the plain old text. Much less hassle for what I want to do, despite the novelty of the other option. Thank you for the help!
you can run below SQL queries (see this guidance if required)
ALTER TABLE `mybb_users` CHANGE `sourceeditor` `sourceeditor` TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1';
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `sourceeditor` = '1' WHERE `sourceeditor` = '0';
Sorry for rez-ing an old thread, but I attempted to do the above and get the following error;

#1146 - Table '[removed]_bqvo1.mybb_users' doesn't exist.

Not sure what is going on?

Thanks for any help.
^ in the above given SQL queries, replace mybb with bqvo1 and try again
Unfortunately I'm getting the same error even with that change.


ETA - figured it out!
What must the setting be if I want to prevent people from pasting the format from other websites?

When someone pastes something only plain text should be taken nothing else.
Is there a way to completely disable WYSWIYG mode?
