Re answer cited by the OP: Edited to add meta and access and other. The custom_shortcuts flags mentioned was in tinymce 3.x (see here) but was removed from 4.x, and on scanning the source nothing equivalent seems to have been substituted. The foo function method mentioned can still be used. In your theme’s “functions.php”: add_action( … Read more
Solved it… In my functions.php I should have put: array( ‘title’ => ‘Hidden Element’, ‘inline’ => ‘span’, ‘classes’ => ‘hiddenElement’, ‘wrapper’ => false, ), not array( ‘title’ => ‘Hidden Element’, ‘block’ => ‘span’, ‘classes’ => ‘hiddenElement’, ‘wrapper’ => false, ), as here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-custom-styles-to-wordpress-visual-editor/

Here’s your easy solution (hopefully this will help other people too): 1) add a custom class for icon, in this example “myicons” (function () { tinymce.PluginManager.add(‘twitter_button_plugin’, function (editor, url) { editor.addButton(‘mce_tweet_button’, { title: ‘Insert tweet’, icon: ‘myicons dashicons-twitter’, onclick: function() { … } }); }); })(); 2) Enqueue your admin stylesheet file function load_custom_wp_admin_style() { … Read more
Add this to your plugin file or in functions.php file in the theme directory add_action( ‘admin_enqueue_scripts’, ‘wpse_141344_admin_enqueue_scripts’ ); add_action( ‘admin_head’, ‘wpse_141344_add_mce_button’ ); function wpse_141344_admin_enqueue_scripts() { wp_enqueue_script( ‘wpse_141344-tinymce-scipt’, ‘url/to/your/custom-tinymce.js’ ); } function wpse_141344_add_mce_button() { if ( ! current_user_can( ‘edit_posts’ ) && ! current_user_can( ‘edit_pages’ ) ) { return; } add_filter( ‘mce_external_plugins’, ‘wpse_141344_add_tinymce_plugin’ ); add_filter( ‘mce_buttons’, ‘wpse_141344_register_mce_button’ … Read more
For disabling the text tab for all users except administrators, you can add the following: function my_editor_settings($settings) { if ( ! current_user_can(‘administrator’) ) { $settings[‘quicktags’] = false; return $settings; } else { $settings[‘quicktags’] = true; return $settings; } } add_filter(‘wp_editor_settings’, ‘my_editor_settings’);
Unless your WP version is truly ancient, you should be able to use the tinymce-editor-init event triggered on editor init by “wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/plugin.js”, eg (assuming your script is loading after jQuery): jQuery( document ).on( ‘tinymce-editor-init’, function( event, editor ) { // Blah. });
I had a lot of trouble finding information and examples of this, so here you go: https://github.com/dtbaker/wordpress-mce-view-and-shortcode-editor This converts a [shortcode] into a nice custom view to match the frontend, and adds an edit button for easy shortcode editing. <?php /** * Class dtbaker_Shortcode_Banner * handles the creation of [boutique_banner] shortcode * adds a button … Read more
esc_html() and esc_textarea() are, appropriate to their names, escaping functions and really meant for display rather than sanitizing or validating. I would use wp_kses() or wp_kses_post() (which is just wp_kses() with the global $allowedposttags) to sanitize input from a wp_editor() field before saving.
There is a button on the visual text editor built in to WordPress that will strip Microsoft Word formating. It is labeled “Paste From Word”
