WordPress TinyMCE Editor

For those using the default WSIWIG editor in WordPress (i.e. TinyMCE), you might consider disabling it and using either an external WSIWIG editor or just using the non-WSIWIG form of the editor. To do this, sign into WordPress and go to Users–>Your Profile from the main menu and uncheck the visual rich editor option:

WordPress Code Preservation

For those who write technically, you might want to check out the following plugins which preserve the original format of code placed within a post or page without stripping them of special characters:

• Preserve Code Formatting
• QuickCode

The first ensures that anything placed between the code or pre tags are preserved. The second allows one to hide/unhide code via javascript within the browser.
