- Will it remember settings prior to 4.8?<\/dt>\n
Yes, the change by WordPress is backwardly compatible and remembers the prior setting, this plugin just re-introduces the checkbox.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Can I install it before upgrading to 4.8<\/dt>\n
Yes.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- How do I get the visual editor<\/dt>\n
Either go to Settings>General and find the option or\nadd this line to your wp-config.php\ndefine ('VISUAL_TEXT_WIDGET',true);\nbefore this line\n\/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. *\/<\/p>\n\n
Adding either define ('VISUAL_TEXT_WIDGET',true); or define ('VISUAL_TEXT_WIDGET',false); will hide the Settings>General option<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
