I'm starting this thread for our posters to make suggestions as to features that were on the older version that they'd like to have back on this newer version. Please post any that you can think of that I can try to find the plugins for so we're back to as "normal" as we can be. I just ask for your patience. Not all things will have new codes written for them but I can scour the library of what they do have and hopefully find most of it. Believe me, I'm not happy about this changeover either because it's way more work for me than you guys! LOL
So, feel free to post options or features you'd like me to look for.

OK, the "Spell Check" plugin has been installed. Please let me know if you encounter problems with it. I tested it and it seems to be working okay for me.
You can access it from either the "quick reply" area bottom left, or the "reply" area bottom right. I wish they had placed them in the same place for each box but oh well.
We now have Spell Check!

Well, I spent the last two hours trying to get all the buttons back in the quick reply area and failed miserably! LOL I have to do some more investigating / experimenting.
Sorry I'm just too tired now and seeing double!

Yep, it's definitely not an improvement in my opinion but it is here and we have to try to deal with it. If there's anything you need help with Mark, let me know. I'll do my best to help. Hopefully the other posters to the God thread will make it back in.

LOL Yep that got me too. I'm searching for a code now that will enable page up and down. I believe it will show in the right margin centered though. Not at the bottom or top.

I've installed the Page up and Page down. It's a little smiley located in the right margin and center on the page. One points up and then changes to a point down if you're at the top of the page. He's not perfectly in line but he's there. LOL

I know and I'm working on it. Please remember I had well over 300 smileys in our box. It's going to take some time to get all that re-installed and organized. I promise I'm working on it.

OK then i give up !! SUNSHINE i wouldn`t like to be in your shoes even slippers , I still think that the persons/peeps responsible for the changes should be made to sit on a board and answer a barrage of questions from obviously IRATE users.

Yay! I finally got the buttons above the quick reply box to show up and work! !!!!!
I think tomorrow I'm going to tackle the smiley box. Again, since there were over 300 smileys in our box, please be patient while I sort through all of it. LOL

OK! After four hours of mind-boggling, eye-straining effort and a lot of and do you know what your Admin has done?
the smileys are now in place. If you click on the smiley in the row of icons, a box will open. At the bottom of the box there is a button / link to "view all smilies". When you click that, another window will open with all the smileys in it. Unfortunately, some of the links aren't working so I'll have to search them out and replace them. The first time you open the box for the extra smileys may take a minute or two to load since there are so many so be patient.
Also, the smileys that appear when you first click on the smiley button in the row above are not changed. I was under the impression doing what I've just done for the last four hours would change them but noooooooooooooooo apparently not. I will have to go in and manually change them in each and every skin we have and at last count, I think there's like 70 skins!
Enjoy!
I'm going to bed now and probably sleep 'til noon!

So much for sleeping late! I got about four hours before the girl above me started stomping around.
Anyway, I've now installed the dislike button, which is located to the right of the like button. Now all I have to do is figure out how to make them images we had before rather than the up and down thumbs.
ETA: Mission accomplished . . . images for like / dislike are added.
