Hi everyone,
I'm running Drupal 5.1 and one thing i can't figure out is how to set default Input format for some user roles?

I would like admins to have full HTML, while anonymous users to have filtered HTML by default.

This would really help me as i'm providing TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor to authenticated users but not to unregistered ones.

Thank you

That's not possible to do in stock Drupal. Through the UI, I mean... Of course anything is possible if you want to code it. :)

I thought TinyMCE provided something where you could set roles for it, though... It's been ages since I've used it so I don't remember specifically.

No, all i can do in TinyMCE configuration is to say what which user roles TinyMCE should be displayed and what user roles can use it. But that doesn't set the default filter/output.

Right now i'm stuck because of this -
1) I need to allow full HTML for registered users to use TinyMCE
2) I can't say that only registered users should have full HTML as default filter
3) If i allow everyone to have full HTML as default - anon users will loose all of the formating when posting, and spammers can seriously infest the server.

So the only solution is to change the input filter by hand every time someone posts anything?

Gosh, it looks like as either the code is not trivial for this, or that the issue didn't have enough devs actually look at it.
