Yes, it’s possible to set it to false. The full parameters list is in the file wp-includes/class-wp-editor.php. These are the default values for the $settings array when calling wp_editor( $content, $editor_id, $settings );: array( ‘wpautop’ => true, ‘media_buttons’ => true, ‘textarea_name’ => $editor_id, ‘textarea_rows’ => 20, ‘tabindex’ => ”, ‘tabfocus_elements’ => ‘:prev,:next’, ‘editor_css’ => ”, … Read more
