Thanks, I will check it out.
I have done some testing and I believe the issue is caching within browsers and server caching. Once I clear browser and server cache the text area defaults to the text(html) tab and all works correctly. Anyone have an idea of how to not have the TinyMCE not cached?
The visual tab is the TinyMCE content window. When you have TinyMCE added it creates two tabs, Visual and Text(HTML), that users can switch between when adding a comment or reply.
I have had some other interesting developments. When a topic is open and reply is selected on a comment bbpress switches between the text and visual tabs being the default. If the text tab is defaulted the visual tab works when switched to, but if the visual tab is default then I run into the issue of users to being able to enter content. If I clear browser cache and server cache it defaults to the text tab but then after a little bit of use it starts defaulting to the visual tab. 🙁
Thanks for responding Robin!
