By default the editor works to help the user by automatically formatting the presentation of the source code.  This format is only active when viewed in the editor source mode and works to aid the user to better identify his or her's code. This does not modify your code but only the presentation of it. With the auto format OFF everything will appears on one line, it won’t try to indent it!

 

Disabling auto format

To do this please login to the backend of your site and visit ‘Extensions’ (which is in the top navigation menu) and navigate down to the ‘Plug-in Manager’ menu item. In the Plug-in Manager use the ‘Filter’ to locate the 'JoomlaCK' plug-in and then click on the 'Plugin Name' to edit and open up into a screen-called ‘Plugin: [Edit]’. On the right hand-side you will notice a list of parameters. Navigate down to 'Advanced Parameters' and set Auto Format Source to 'NO'.

To apply the change click on - Save.
