    Thumbs down Testing - not vert jazzy is it?

    It's as clear as mud as to how formatting and smiles are added in this forum!!!

    Nope, still can't find fonts, hyperlinks, smilies, etc.

    Try activating the advanced editor in your options

    I can't find the colour though

    How about this? Well that seems to work!
    You need to put the tags in by hand like this (color=green) but using square braces (/color)

    Default Selecting the advanced WYSIWYG editor

    As the last post states you will have to activate the advanced editor on your account, simply go to:

    Quick Links >> Edit Options >> Miscellaneous Options >> Message Editor Interface (at the bottom of the page).

    Select - Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing.

    That will enable the menu with formatting options to be visible to you when creating or replying to posts.

    To change the colour you will see a drop down list just after the ones for Font and Size, it looks like this with a black bar under it. you can use that to change text colours. Smilies are found in the drop down list next to that one.

    Smile Now I'm as happy as a pig in muck (did I mention the Commando Challenge?)

    Thanks Guys : cheers :- That's fixed it for me. I'm surprised this isn't on as a default for luddites like me!

    Happy caching

    Me too, but I've just been through the Admin settings, and I'm afraid there doesn't seem to be any way to change that default. hmy:
