Text Formatting

  • Hello,

    I have a lot of guest writers to my site, and I go through and edit their articles before posting. However, most of them use the headers 1, 2, 3, etc.

    I would like my writers to use ONLY the ‘paragraph’ option and disable the rest so they aren’t even able to choose them.

    This would save me loads of time during the editing process, is this at all possible to do?

    Thank you so much WordPress community! ??

  • Sorry if it sounded like I was saying it is a bug with Genesis. That is not what I meant.

    What I meant was you may have to place the code somewhere else other than the functions.php file of your child theme because of how their framework works.. At least that is what I recall. I actually moved away from their framework because it was not very mobile friendly yet at the time and I had a ton of clients asking for mobile friendly site rebuilds, so I had to move away to keep the business coming in.

    Hello,

    I posted the question to the studiopress community and got an answer. (just to keep this thread updated for anyone in a similar position as myself). They gave me this answer, and you’re right Davood, it would seem as though, with this fix, I would have to create a new theme file with custom code rather than just embed code in the functions.php

    “You can customize which buttons display on TinyMCE editor in WordPress. Here’s a link to some code that can do it for you:
    https://gist.github.com/JiveDig/83c2751199218724fd2a0233c338bb00

    Keep in mind, WordPress is changing the editor to Gutenberg in Ver. 5, scheduled for release this Spring. Customizing the buttons will only work until then, unless they WodPress developers give us some way to keep TinyMCE around for a while.”

    Given this response, I may just wait and see what the new update has in store rather than going through all this hassle if it is going to change in a few short months. Also, I took a look at the code for this fix and, unless I’m mistaken, it also looks like it would strip out other functionality like being able to underline and bold, which is not what I’m looking for – I only wish to disable the header 1, 2, and 3, options. Seems like more of a headache than I intend to get involved with so I will wait for this update and if the update doesn’t fix it, then I will try my luck with finding a solution again after that (haha).

    Thanks again for all your help though, much appreciated!! ^.^

    Happy you were able to get the answer your needed from them. Feel free to ask questions that’s why we are here.
