How to Disable Visual Tab

I have several pages that are relative complicated and before I turn it over to my client, I would like to disable the Visual Tab and only allow the HTML tab while in PageBuilder.

I have installed plugin that disables the regular visual tab but I am interested in also disabling the Visual Tab in PageBuilder because switching back and forth or editing in the Visual Tab and then saving messes up my page.

Is there a way to do this.

    Hi Lisa

    Thanks for running Page Builder on your project.

    This is something we’ve chatted about quite a bit and hope to improve upon in the future. For now, you could head over to Settings > Page Builder and un-check the setting that copies content across from Page Builder to the Visual / Text tabs. I unfortunately don’t know of a way to completely disable those tabs for the pages/post in question.

    Why not just remove the post type support?

    remove_post_type_support( ‘page’, ‘editor’ );

    Lisa have you perhaps taken a look at Page Builder since 1.5.1? There is no longer a Visual / Text tab visible within Page Builder, you need to use a button to switch back to the regular editor. This in conjunction with the ability to stop content being copied to Visual / Text from Page Builder at Settings > Page Builder should hopefully resolve the challenge you’re facing.
