Hi Kwsm,
Did you, at any time, open the visual tab? I ask as the second you do that TinyMCE/WordPress will very likely filter the code and remove the HTML. What is the HTML/JavaScript you’re adding? It’s possible it may have been filtered on save.
When you’re adding code to your editor, I would recommend using the Custom HTML widget instead of the SiteOrigin Editor widget.

Once I click save, the eidtor reverts back to ‘Visual’ instead of ‘Text’. When I open ‘Text’ again, the code is gone. Super annoying.

Thanks. I’ve logged this as a bug.
In the meantime, I would recommend switching to the Custom HTML widget to add your HTML – sorry about this!
