Facilitating users to write content in an external editor, and then copy/paste it into the WordPress editor, is a fundamentally bad approach, and is fraught with issues. The WordPress editor is intended to be used to write content. You should train your users to use the post editor to write content, as opposed to using … Read more
Try this plugin. It allows you to add/remove buttons on the visual editor -> http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tinymce-advanced/
function extend_tinymce( $values ) { $elements=”pre[id|class|title|rel]”; if ( isset( $values[‘extended_valid_elements’] ) ) { $values[‘extended_valid_elements’] .= ‘,’ . $elements; } else { $values[‘extended_valid_elements’] = $elements; } return $values; } add_filter(‘tiny_mce_before_init’, ‘extend_tinymce’); The above snippet is what I use for example, of course you can extend this beyond id, class, title, rel, to things such as height, … Read more

To address your second request, I’ve modified the code to allow you to supply a list of posts that … Read more
You could run a regex. Since they’re continuing this behavior, you will probably want to create a custom plugin and set up a cron job to trigger it periodically so it will continue stripping all inline styles. Your plugin will need to query all posts. From there, in a loop that checks each post’s content, … Read more
You don’t have to specify a file for the editor style. Just use add_editor_style(); in your functions.php, and then create a file called editor-style.css in your theme folder. You may want to look at some examples (e.g. Twenty Eleven) for some of the TinyMCE-specific rules, which is the stock visual editor you’re referring to.
WordPress already disallows the use of JavaScript in the editor for users without the unfiltered_html capability. By default, only the Administrator and Editor roles have this capability.
