Description
Hi,
I'm not sure my problem has been discussed extensively. I do find posts related to it but nothing seems to apply to me.
I recently installed the Filter Default Module for Drupal 6. I then assigned "default" input filters for each role I have on my website. I am using the Wysiwyg module also, and wanted to have an "editor" filter automatically set for the editor "role". Everything seems to be ok from the input filter administration page. However, if I log in with an editor user and try to create a new page or book page, I do not get the expected input filter by default. The "Filtered HTML" is set, and there is no wysiwyg with that one.
Do you know how to fix this?
Thanks,

I don't have any experience with wysiwyg module, so I'm not sure off the top of my head what it's doing and what the interaction is.
I can look into this, but I think a better choice might be to look at Better Formats module. It covers more ground, is specifically for Drupal 6 (it doesn't come from Drupal 5 like this one does) and the developer seems to be aware of potential issues with the wysiwyg API. I'd try that first.

Thanks Chellman!

Thanks for recommending the better formats module. Is it possible to put a note on the front page of this (filter default) module suggesting better_formats for 6.0 users? I'm not sure the protocol for making a suggestion like this...

The note is already there, actually. I've moved it up to the second paragraph so it's more obvious.
