Since the new tiptap editor I’m not able to change the HTML in the wysiwyg editor.  
How can I add the code/html functionality to the editor toolbar

”code” clearly doesn’t work

```auto
{toolbar: ‘format | alignLeft alignCenter alignRight | link image | listBullet listOrdered | table hr | bold italic underline strikethrough | subscript superscript | code highLight color | undo redo’,}

```

Ok, I just went through the “editor-actions.js” file and there seems to be no option for “code” functionality at all.

Could someone please confirm if that’s the case cause that’s a core functionality for me? Thanks!

I’ve tried all the options, but the HTML editor does not appear.  
How do I enable it? Can someone help?

```auto
{
  toolbar: 'format | alignLeft alignCenter alignRight | link image | listBullet listOrdered | table hr | bold italic underline strikethrough | subscript superscript | code highLight color | undo redo',
}

```

```auto
{
  "editor": {
    "plugins": "code link image lists table hr",
    "toolbar": "undo redo | bold italic underline | alignleft aligncenter alignright | bullist numlist | link image | table hr | code",
    "menubar": "edit insert view format tools"
  }
}

```

```auto
{
  "editor": {
    "plugins": "code",
    "toolbar": "code"
  }
}

```
