Have you tried using the CSS on Darren Hoyt’s example of this?

umair, did you figure out a solution for this? Daniel Hoyt has explanation of how to do this with PHP, I’m wondering if you found a plugin solution?

Found it! (I think) Javascript Pullquotes. There’s also the Fancy Pullquotes Plugin.

Thanks for sending. I know that I’ve seen a plugin recently somewhere, I just can’t rack my feeble brain to find it.

I know I can set up a CSS class for this – in fact I’ve done it with alert boxes before, such as

.alert {
	background: #FFCCCC url('/wp-content/theme/images/exclamation.png') no-repeat 15px !important;
	font-size: large !important;
	font-weight: bold !important;
	font-variant: small-caps !important;
	}

but the person entering content for this site isn’t very technically inclined and I wondered if there was a plugin that made it a little easier/wysiwyg.

Thanks for the tip. I still kinda wish there was a CODE button, because then I could have the best of both worlds. Alas, ’tis not meant to be.

What’s changed is the editor itself. If you switch back to the Visual Editor, then it will reformat your HTML as it sees fit. It did that before too with the HTML button, just not as drastically.

So you’re saying that as long as you don’t ever switch to the Visual Editor the editor won’t strip the code?

I’m hoping the 2.2 release doesn’t strip things as dramatically, because while I’m entirely comfortable editing the code, the RTE does make things easier at times.

See the two tabs above the editor? One of ’em is labeled “Code”? That’s what replaced the “html” button.

I don’t think that’s correct. The CODE tab isn’t a replacement, it seems like it’s somewhere between the idiot-proof rich text editor and the code monkey HTML button. The CODE tab strips out paragraph tags and other HTML code and don’t get me started on trying to insert <div> tags.

Plus, if the HTML button doesn’t exist anymore, why include it in the image files in wp-includes?

turns out there’s a checkbox on the Profile that says use visual editor

Yeah, yeah. Already have this checked. I have all of the buttons available in the visual editor EXCEPT for the HMTL button.

I am having the same issue – did you resolve the problem with your PHP installation? If so, how?

seems to somehow be corrupting in certain circumstances.

Why is this happening in some instances and not in others? I’ve tried installing, reinstalling, and all of the suggestions above, but nothing seems to fix the problem. Occurs in all browsers.

Is this a topic that needs to be elevated to a bug/fix?

I’ve cleaned out my cache, edited the tiny_mce_config.php file per Sluggo’s suggestion, deactivated plugins, but I still can’t seem to get the HTML button to appear. I know that it’s supposed to be there… Any ideas?

The button that should be showing up is the “HTML” button, which is located here in your WordPress install:

/wp-includes/js/tinymce/themes/advanced/images/code.gif

Go here to what it looks like:

You realize the “HTML” button you just added is the same as clicking the “Code” tab while on the post editor?

As for the advanced toolbar: Just hit alt-shift-v (Firefox) or alt-v (IE) to toggle it.

The CODE strips out some of the HTML when you write a post in the visual tab, so it’s not really the same. I installed upgraded 2.1.1 on an office WP installation yesterday and the HTML button was there in the visual editor next to the HELP button. But today when I upgraded to 2.1.1 for a different install, there is no HTML button.

Also, do you know what the toggle keystrokes for the advanced toolbar are on a Mac?

I’m having the same problem, which seems to have begun since I upgraded to 2.05 Ronan. None of the feedreaders are seeing my most recent feeds. Any ideas?
