1. Check the setting to control per content type at /admin/settings/filters/settings

2. Then edit the content types at /admin/content/node-type that you wish to set defaults on and you will find field set labeled Input formats that will let you set the allowed formats and default formats for that content type.

Hi dragonwize,

Thank you for your help. I did what you suggested but my problem is not solved.

I have created a content type editable by the admin person only and we need to include some HTML tags when creating that type of content, mostly < table > and < a > tags. As soon as we installed TinyMCE, the tags are gone when viewing the pages...we just want to get those HTML tags back for that specific type of content. Is there anyway we can disable tinymce completely for certain content types?

For regular site users, yes we want any HTML tags to be removed when they paste text to whatever content type they are creating content with.

I hope this help making my question clearer and thank you so much for you help.

It sounds like you need to setup your filters and formats correctly. Better Formats has nothing to do with that, it just sets a default format on new content and has some other options like removing the filter tips etc.

Removal of tags is handled by filters. Specifically, the "HTML filter" filter that is normally enabled on the "Filtered HTML" format. If this doesn't make sense to you, I recommend reading the docs on filters.
