Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

>

>

6 please discontinue using this plugin. I may release a new plugin that prevents spaces from being stripped from the beginning of lines sometime in the near future.

g. HTML entities like &gt; &lt; &quot; would convert to > < " — when I saved the post I was working on.

To make matters worse, all the spaces I was using to align my coding examples would disappear when switching between “HTML” mode and “Visual” mode, even if I used the &nbsp; entity.

So, I finally bit the bullet and wrote this little plugin to fix these problems. It does just two things:

  • Allows you to enter HTML entities like &gt; &lt; &amp; etc. while in “Visual” mode and they will stay put, even after you save your post.
  • Allows you to type extra spaces while in “Visual” mode (or &nbsp; in “HTML” mode) and they will stay put too, allowing you to correctly indent code samples, etc.

If you are writing blog posts with source code or HTML examples, you may find this little plugin helps you avoid a ton of aggravation.

Works with TinyMCE and the TinyMCE Advanced plugin.

Please note, this plugin is a patch for issues with WordPress’s uses of TinyMCE, and not the editor itself.

net or visit the TinyMCE Entities Patch Plugin Home Page with your feedback.

1. It may work on earlier versions, but I just don’t know for sure. Try it and see.

If it doesn’t work simply deactivate the plugin. )
