Total fail. iOS 5.1 can't come soon enough. Sigh.

I had signed off FourSquare for quite some time, but then got pulled back in to test a few things. Probably time to release again.

Very true about the address book issue. I'd read that after closing the account. Hopeful Apple does resolve it in a future update to iOS. Either way it worked out for my goal of simplifying this year. Next networks to go are Gowalla and Foursquare. They are both fun, but I've found that they can be a distraction for me. Takes away from being present.

Yes, that's mainly why I've been using it as a personal journal. It's great for that purpose and I can share out as I wish on occasion. What's interesting about the address book issue is that it turns out to be pretty common across iPhone apps. Just read yesterday this will be handled differently in the future with the next iOS update. Path was just first to get "caught" - so to speak.

It really was an interesting interface, but I found that for me its main "features" ended up being the main reasons I disliked it. No web interface to add through, no single URL to see all my entries, limited number of people I could add, etc. I just didn't need another profile, especially one with massive limitations (to me at least).

Then the news of Path uploading the entire address book to their servers broke. Something about this completely creeped me out. I have since emailed them and received confirmation that my account and all data is closed and deleted.

I am trying to simplify things this year so all things considered, closing the account was the best course of action for me.

Looks like some late night work for me so I don't disrupt our regular services. It's quite puzzling.

Sounds like night or weekend work. That&#39s the next step.

Have you ruled out plugins entirely by renaming your plugins folder (then visiting the plugins Dashboard page so they get disabled) and then trying the edit?

If it is a production site you may need to stay up late, but at least that would kill off a bunch of false leads if the problem persists with every plugin disabled.

Kenley, I did note in the link I posted yesterday that apparently Admin users have access to all html tags, while all other users are restricted to a subset of tags, and presumably those specified by that kses.php file on the server, so you might try doing a quick edit of that file to add the select and option tags and see if they&#39re then available to those with Editor privileges or not, you can always back out the edits quickly.

Kenley Neufeld — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:10:57 -0000

Even if I change user to admin or create a new account as admin, they still have same problem. It&#39s damn weird.

+JD Thomas - the Proofread option was a good lead, but that wasn&#39t it either. Darn. I did some further snooping and found a network level plugin that didn&#39t appear in the site level plugin list. It&#39s called User Role Editor and I&#39m thinking that could be something.

Re: WordPress Strips Basic Code

JD Thomas — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:28:16 -0000

You have Jetpack installed - do the affected users have Proofread enabled in their profile? That would cause the post content to pass through at least one other system with the potential for problems.

Let us know if these tips help. I&#39m really curious about what could be causing this.

Re: WordPress Strips Basic Code

Steve Watkins — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 00:14:40 -0000

You might try looking at the server file kses.php under wp-includes, which lists all the allowable tags. On my server, select and option are not included, so presumably one would have to add or override those settings in order to be able to use them in forms within WP pages. But that wouldn&#39t explain why one level of user permissions was able to add the tags and one wasn&#39t, a definite mystery.

Here&#39s a one possible workaround: http://www.dbuggr.com/smallwei/update-change-list-allowed-html-tags-wordpress-default/

Perhaps it's a Network-wide plugin, activated for multi-site, that just doesn't show up as a plugin for each child site? That's really odd, though.

Re: WordPress Strips Basic Code

Colleen Greene — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:40:53 -0000

I use the Role Manager plugin for our multi-site Wordpress (3.2.1) site at Pollak Library, to define and assign a handful of different levels of permissions for our staff:
http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/...

I haven't run into the the problem you mention, as long as I have enabled HTML editing capability to the right permissions group. So, sorry, I can't really offer insight on how the out-of-the-box WP multi-site handles HTML editing for default roles.

I'd suggest disabling a cache plugin, and attempting this again...but, you're not using a cacheing plugin, so I'm stumped on this one.

Re: WordPress Strips Basic Code

Kenley Neufeld — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:34:42 -0000

Now this is interesting. There is something called User Role Editor under the Users menu. It appears to be a plugin, but doesn't appear in the plugin list. Hmmm.

Re: WordPress Strips Basic Code

Kenley Neufeld — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:26:21 -0000

The list of plugins above are the currently active ones on this site. That said, at one point I did use Capability Manager, but it is now disabled.

Colleen Greene — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:19:30 -0000

Kenley, are you using a multi-author role-based plugin, as well?
