I am running a site with WP 4.6.3 and bbpress, as well as TinyMCEadvanced.

If I disabled tinyMCE advanced I can post with bold, italic etc.

If I enable tinyMCE advanced, all I get is HTML code like:
<span style=”color: #0000ff;”>Testing styling of forums posts.</span>

If I login in as admin this does not happen, as there is a small box which says You have the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.

How can I make it so that all users can use this? My main concern is adding different colour text.

Note: I also tried disabling TinyMCE and just using the toolbar toggle in the visual editor and nothing has changed. I still get HTML and no style output.

OK I did manage to solve this and wrote a simple plugin using code I found here. I will be sure to post it later.
