Forum:Versions of Wiki Editing

I was wondering if it was possible to custom code my wiki so that in the edit box, it automatically goes to Source mode. --''' User:Feey1 |Speak to me! ''' 19:52, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

 * I've had the same problem of a page that will not go into visual mode because it think it had high end code in it. I've put it in as a bug but haven't has been resolved. I've even trace it down a one word added in a sentence. They said they kicked it up to higher tech support. It seem sometime edit will tag a page that should be editable in the visual mode as a source mode only.


 * It's not possible. I saw a community vote against it, then ask for it to be removed and they were refused. I hate the visual editor and never use it.


 * (Edit conflict) The Visual Editor can be disabled for you personally in your Preferences. On the Editing tab, untick "Enable the Visual Editor (where available)". To disable the Visual Editor on a specific page for all users, insert the  magic word somewhere in the page. The editor is also completely unable to understand a variety of complex wikitext constructs, the simplest of which is nested templates. If your wiki uses complex templates (like a table template, where each row of the table is represented by another template passed as a parameter into the first one) then you can effectively write off the VE entirely.

 * You can make it so that the source mode is opened first using javascript.—  12:01, October 27, 2012 (UTC)
