    I am attempting to make it so my post page is limited in functionality so my bloggers only put in what i want?

    I see post.php calls edit-form-advanced.php

    and…

    I see this in the edit-form-advanced.php :

    <fieldset id=”<?php echo user_can_richedit() ? ‘postdivrich’ : ‘postdiv’; ?>”>
    <legend><?php _e(‘Entry’) ?></legend>

    <?php the_editor($post->post_content); ?>
    </fieldset>

    I assume that if i modify the operation of part of this I can make what i want to happen.

    Where do i do this?

    Is there any sites that offer suggestions of this already?

    A little lost at the moment… .look forward to replies.

    Cheers
    Chris

    Actually… scratch that. I have since realized that to customize the part that I want to customize I have to delve into general-template.php in the function defined as the_editor at line 793 the problem is is that is a nest of code i have no idea about.

    I need to do something *very simple* without all the rich text functionality that currently appears when you are writing posts.

    Basically i need a simple text box without the added functionality… in fact I would like a text box just like this one I am writing in.

    If someone can point me in the direction of how to make that happen I will be very happy.

    Is there a plug in somewhere that allows for the change of the post box functionality or is there simple code I can use to make this happen?

    Please help.

    Getting cross eyed from looking at code.

    Many thanks
    Chris

    Ok, now i know i am a moron when it comes to wordpress understanding. I see now that I need to edit the functionality of TinyMCE and what it displays on my post pages.

    If _anyone_ has an idea about this I would love some help.

    I am now going to search the database of wordpress for information on doing just this.

    Thanks in advance
    Chris
