If you want to enter raw [[wikipedia:HTML|HTML]] in a Joomla! editor field, you may encounter problems such as tags and attributes disappearing after you save the item you are editing. This is usually caused by a filtering mechanism; either your editor's or Joomla!'s.

On the [[Administrator (Application)|Administrator panel]], take the following steps to disable filtering:

* '''Disable your editor'''. Since each editor has its own filtering mechanism and it is not always possible to turn it off, disabling your editor is the easiest way of eliminating it as a possible source of the problem. Open ''My Profile'' from the ''Site'' menu, set ''Editor'' under ''Basic Settings'' to ''Editor - None'' and click ''Save & Close''.
* '''Disable Joomla's filtering'''. Open the ''Global Configuration'' from the ''Site'' menu and go to the ''Text Filters'' tab. Set the ''Filter Type'' to ''No Filtering'' for the user group that you are in - ''Administrator'', ''Super Users'', or both (this is site-dependent). '''Caution''': Do not use the ''No Filtering'' setting for user groups that are not fully trusted – that would introduce a sizeable security risk.'''

You should be able to enter raw HTML in any editor field now. You may try to re-enable your editor to see whether it influences the process. If the editor does mangle the HTML you are trying to enter, consult its documentation to see if there is a way to disable its filtering.
