Well, now I can't seem to modify the text of my posts any more (or insert links for external images).

I have checked in both Firefox and IE8, but the toolbar that showed the editing tools has gone walkabouts when I create or reply to a post.

Any thoughts?

Also, how can I delete a post made by myself, as I stupidly put this one in the wrong section...

Not sure about the text editing. The forum is set so no one but administrators can delete posts. It was set like that as default and we decided to leave it like that for a while to make sure everyone behaved while we are sorting the forum out. If you let us know where you want the post moved to I am sure it can be done. I guess probably Serge will look into the text editing soon.

Someone's got quick fingers - the toolbar is back again, thanks :up:

I figure it probably belongs in the website help section, but it can probably just be deleted altogether now that things are working again.

Dunno what happened there, Pete.  i didn't notice a loss of anything!

It is possible however, that Alex is doing 'stuff' in the background and that may have caused a hiccup?

As long as all's good now!
