Default to text, not visual editor

Thanks for the response, Yigit. I think I may not have been clear on what I meant.

What I mean is the two tabs at the top right of your linked image that say “Visual” and “Text”. Typically, when I work on a WordPress page, it remembers which editor I was using last (Visual or Text) and when I go to edit the page again, it opens that one.

As we all know, the Visual editor can often mess with our custom html code that we create in the Text editor. But this is only an issue sometimes, so I don’t want to disable the Visual editor completely by editing my User profile.

So when I edit text in, for example, an iconbox, I’d like is for it to do one of two things:
1. Remember whether I used Visual or Text for that particular iconbox the last time I saved it.
OR
2. Default to showing the Text editor and then I can click the Visual editor if I want it. That way, for the cases where I have custom code that WordPress might mess up, it’s not messed up simply by opening the iconbox box to edit it each time.

Hopefully that’s more clear about what I’m trying to do.

Thanks.

Hi Yigit, thanks again for the quick response.

As you can see, I wrote above

I’d really rather not go this route. I’m just asking if there is anyway to get the Advanced Layout Build to either remember which you used or set it to default to the Text editor. But again, I don’t want to have to disable Visual completely. Most of the time it is useful.

Thanks.

Thanks, Devin.
