If you’re blog is running on WordPress 2.1, there is a cool little trick that you can do to completely upgrade the built-in WYSIWYG editor.

WordPress Advanced WYSIWYG Editor

This expanded WYSIWYG editor will give you the ability to easily control:

  • Text styles
  • Underlining
  • Full paragraph alignment
  • The color of your text
  • Two varieties of paste (text and Word)
  • Formatting removal
  • Code cleanup
  • Insert custom characters
  • Undo/redo

The nice part if that there isn’t anything you need to install to get it. The next time you are writing a post in your WordPress blog - simply use one of these shortcuts (based on what browser you use);

FireFox Alt+Shift+V

Internet Explorer Alt+V

FireFox Running on OS X Ctrl+V
