New Feature: Easily Toggle Between Rich Text and HTML

If you've been a member for OnSugar for a while, you've probably seen our HTML popup tool. It was convenient, but let's be honest, it wasn't the easiest interface.

To remedy this, we're introducing a new way to toggle between the two views. With a quick click of a link, you can see your post in the regular "rich text" format or in the "raw HTML" view. No additional popups, and no more "which window" confusion.

As a bonus feature, we're also going to remember which format you last used. So if you last edited a post in HTML, your next post will be automatically set to HTML. If you want to switch back all you have to do is click the link.

To switch views, just click the link underneath the body box. Doing so will toggle the content directly in the body box. Also please note: the old HTML popup icon will be discontinued soon, so let us know if you have any questions about the new way.

And remember, to embed code into your post (such as youtube videos, etc.) you need to be in raw HTML mode.
