This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The user, wanted to replace the default WYSIWYG TinyMCE editor in the 'user form' toolset with a simple "textarea" to prevent users from inserting formatted text. They were unable to find a way to make this change using the existing WordPress default "description" field.
Solution:
We suggested that instead of trying to modify the TinyMCE editor, cantonB should create a new custom field that supports multiline text. This approach allows the form to display a basic textarea field, aligning with the user's requirements for plain text input.

I'm using the toolset 'user form' so users can edit their own description field. By default, the editor renders a WYSIWYG TinyMCE type editor. But I don't want them to be able to insert formatted text, I just want a plain old "textarea" form field.
How do I do this? In my form editor (expert mode) I currently have this:
[cred_field field='description' class='form-control listingtextedit' output='bootstrap']
The attached illustration hopefully explains where I am and what I'm trying to do. Thanks!
