Enforcing style across all pages

[drew]

Hi folks,

Other than instructing contributors to follow a rigid procedure when composing articles, would cmsms have a standard way or plugin that will insure consistent looking site content? In particular font name/size and line spacing. I don't know how they do it, but there are always a few new pages that seem out of place.

I know that each page has a "Disable WYSIWYG editor on this page" option, but that would force the page creator to set this option. I recall that without an WYSIWIG editor, the writer will be forced into composing html.

Maybe certain WYSIWIG editor features (fonts, linespacing) could be disabled?

Post-processing an edited page by stripping out or transforming html tags would be brute force, and tricky.

Or is a set of general editor guidelines the best solution to maintaining a consistent looking site.

Thanks as usual, Drew

You can set what the WYSIWIG editor allows a user to do so they cannot alter your design. They won't need to write HTML. Even if they could they can only alter the content element of your page, not anything else. This is set in the templates, themes, css etc.
And for that you can set permissions on most things so editors/users cannot change the look of your site.
