Custom User Role unable to edit html in editor

    I have a site (note: not a multisite setup) set up with a custom role that has unfiltered_html capabilities marked. However, when that user tries to edit a page that has html in it, he can’t see any of the code. The html is very basic (just divs, text, and images) so I don’t know why it would be stripped out. How can I guarantee user roles with unfiltered_html capabilities can actually edit code in the main text editor?

    I just retested this. My author user with ‘unfiltered_html’ capability turned on uses div and span without problems.
    Does your user work with a ‘Text’ editor, not ‘Visual’ one?

    On this site we actually have the visual editor disabled so their only option is to use the text editor.

    Try to deactivate all plugins. Will you get another result?

    Strangely, I was able to see the code on my dev site but not on the live site. I was also able to access the html with another user with the same role. I’m not entirely sure why that one user wasn’t able to, but it seems like recreating the account fixes the problem.
