Link to directly edit post in plain text (ignore user setting)

[NolF]

Is there an url, one where you can append something like &plaintextedit so that it takes you directly to the plain text editor regardless of what the user setting may be (WYSIWYG or plain text)?

Jake posted how to disable the WYSIWYG editor: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/1-0-0-b1-disable-wysiwyg.5563/

I'm not sure if that's exactly what you were after though.

That's what I was afraid of, if I'm reading it right, I'll need a modification that will go directly into edit with the WYSIWYG without disabling it permanently.

Oh well, thanks

I find that the WYSIWYG editor hijacks the markup code in my posts if I open a post in that editor. So I often disable javascript on the page using noscript before editing a heavily formatted post. That disables the WYSIWYG editor temporarily for that post.

There really should be a user preference for this.
