How to restore the Visual mode in WordPress 2.1
Wordpress.com recently released the latest and greatest version of WordPress v 2.1. The much maligned Rich Text Editor in Wordpress has been significantly upgraded with an easy tab option which allows you to switch between a Visual mode and a much more comfortable Code mode.Wordpress uses TinyMCE for text input.
Now, say you switched over to Code mode and after a while, you realize that you want the Visual Mode. You will notice that you do not have the option to switch between Visual and Code modes anymore.
This might happen if you recently upgraded to a newer version of Wordpress. Restoring this option is pretty simple. Go to Users –> Your Profile and select the option “Use the Visual Editor when writing”.
You are all set and this setting would be saved from now on.
