Hide the “Text” Editor Tab

Introduction
By default, BuddyBoss does not provide an option to remove the “Text” editor tab. You can use a CSS snippet to hide this tab, which simplifies the editor interface for users who only need the Visual tab.

Custom Workaround
Follow the steps below to hide the “Text” editor tab:

  1. Go to BuddyBoss Dashboard > Theme Options.
  2. Under Custom Codes, enable CSS.
  3. Append the following code:
.wp-editor-tools .wp-editor-tabs { display: none !important; }
  1. Save changes.

Note: Any modifications are considered custom work already. Know more about our Support policy here: https://buddyboss.com/support-policy/

A: No. Only the “Text” tab will be hidden. The Visual editor tab remains accessible.

Q: The “Text” tab is still visible after adding the CSS. What should I do?
