Since the last update cba8762f3c Everyone’s composer defaults to rich text when the default is markdown.

safe mode does not entail any downtime, you can just run it whenever you want. Looking at the list my guess here is that this is discourse-formatting-toolbar.

No repro here, I just tested with latest source code. Keep in mind that setting only applies to new registrations unless you go ahead and ask it to update history. Users can also override this.

It’s been default on markdown for a long time. Last update the setting is ignored for everyone including people who manually change it.

This is not happening on latest, can you try pulling latest? If it still happens can you try safe mode ? Do you have any 3rd party plugins?

This is my plugins cmd of 3rd party plugins: - rm -rf discourse-formatting-toolbar && git clone https://github.com/iunctis/discourse-formatting-toolbar # enables the formatting toolbar - rm -rf discourse-ssd && git clone https://github.com/Eviepayne/discourse-ssd …

Thanks for this just tested it and learned about safe mode . You’re probably right about the discourse-formatting toolbar

Update: It appears to be the custom-wizard-plugin

[afbeelding] Eviepayne: Update: It appears to be the custom-wizard-plugin I can confirm. Same problem on my end. Specifically disabling the Custom Wizard fixes the bug. But… I really need the Wizard! Is there something that can be done?
