Simple, option-less (yeah, that’s a feature), plugin to make TinyMCE – the WordPress Visual Editor – easier for clients and n00bs. It removes a bunch of TinyMCE features that could potentially be used by inexperienced clients to screw-up the theme developers hard work! It also makes TinyMCE remove the nasty formatting when you paste content directly in it – so, there is no need to use the “paste from Word” or “paste from text” buttons!
Thanks to Zé Fontainhas for testing and SVN help and Tiago Rodrigues for help with TinyMCE “paste” issues.
