Our default input format is "Visual Editor Basic", which uses the html filter.
Our 'Moderator' role also has access to "Visual Editor Trusted", which turns off the html filter so that in-line styles pass through, and we can get crazy things like colored and larger text.

The only problem comes, when the moderators create a new story, by default their input format is still "Visual Editor Basic", and they use the crazy things but they don't work, and they don't know to click "Visual Editor Trusted" to make them work.

Is there some way to make "Visual Editor Trusted" the default input format if the user has the permissions to it?

I solved exactly this with the remember filter module which will leave it on what filter a user used last.

That looks good but for two things

  • There's no Drupal 6 implementation. Waaah!
  • Users have to get it right the first time, which they won't

doh... I keep forgetting to check the version of the post when I respond to posts from the main page, sorry. It's a pretty tiny module and I use it myself, so I'll take a look at getting it coverted over for D6. Should be pretty easy. I'll post back if I get it working.

Ouch, can't help ya there. One would think if someone has the role of a "moderator", they could be trusted to set the input filter, lol.
