    New server

    We are now completly moved over and DNS seems to be properly propigating. Speed increase is dramatic and to think we have not even had a chance to tweak the server or site yet. So things will only get better in the future.

    Next on the list is the censor option.

    Yes, the new format DID eat the "Donate" button - I'm trying to find the code for it and then figure out how to install it.

    How can direct links to other websites be placed in a post?

    Re: New server

    Use the advanced editor, and the "Insert link" button (the blue globe/chain icon right below the smiley).

    The "Insert Image" button (4 spots right of the "link") lets you add pics from the web (just use the image URL, not the webpage it's on) or upload ones from your computer. No more remote hosting required!

    Use the "Post Reply" button instead of the quick reply window. That opens the advanced editor, which looks like this (arrow points to "insert link" button):

    Re: New server

    Hi, bfish,

    Thanks for the screen shot. Unfortunately the one I get for ALL types of replies is much simpler and does not have the required 'click-ons'.

    In the Posting Rules box, HTML code is OFF. I do not know if it should be ON or how to switch it on.

    Cheers, Marshall.

    Go to "My Account/Edit Options", and scroll to "Miscellaneous" at the bottom. For the "Message Editor Interface", select "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing". Save your changes, and that should do it.

    Cheers!
