KATE! And anyone else having trouble...

You'll find all your smilies, and fonts, and more here:

Go into User CP.
Click Edit Options.
Scroll all the way down to Miscellaneous Options.
Drop down menu gives you 3 choices: Basic Editor, Standard Editor, Enhanced Interface. Click on the one you want.

Basic Editor is basic. No bells and whistles.
From what I can see, and I guess from what my web browser can handle, Standard Editor and Enhanced Interface offer me the same options - smilies and the ability to chose fonts, colors, and other options.

What's the little thingie in the righthand corner of the quick reply box--a/A--that says "switch editor mode"?:confused:

[Sally]

checking to see what it does, harriet, I wonder if it takes away what you have done if you change your mind and don't want to retype it
k here goes

[Sally]

Uh, nope it didn't do a darned thing!

[Sally]

Ohhhhh that!!!! on the right side!! I see one on the left too with a big x through it, I clicked it and all it does is change what you see in the box when you are posting is like what you used to see it has the actual >B around the text etc.

Not sure why exactly! lol

What's the little thingie in the righthand corner of the quick reply box--a/A--that says "switch editor mode"?:confused:I have no idea. I wrote a few words in the quick reply box, then hit that a/A thing and it just changed the backgroud color.

When I hit it for this reply it changes the font of your quote from Comic Sans to Verdana. Why would one need to do that?

There are so many bells & whistles with this new board that I'm just going to ignore things I don't need.

Um I just reread what I posted earlier and this makes no sense to me at all, so just ignore me!! lol, I had a splitting headache and had just taken sinus meds, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Thank You Alison! :kiss: I've got it all now! :clap:

Harriet, the a/A on the right just lets you switch from the set Verdana to any of the other 21 styles of font you might like to use!
The AA on the left with the X through it just changes the word your cursur is on back to Verdana font.

I'm bumping this up for the moms from Mom's Life.
