I find the Code easier to read now, the dim blue in the old forum was hard work for me. it would be even better if
Code text darkened when the Cursor is placed on it - as the signature texts do now.

In my User Control Panel is this information about PMs. "Folder is 44% full (89 out of 200 messages stored)"
What happens when it reaches 200 ? Delete all, delete some, block any more ?

:popcorn: Cut and paste from my favorite editor only seems to work for "Quick Reply" and does not work in "Post Reply". Am I doing
something wrong, missing a tick or wait until things get hammered out? :popcorn:

After seeing what just happened, I think I will wait for the hammers to stop.

This had been around forever, it's not new.

At 200 you don't see new messages, and have to delete or move old ones.

Now in Post Reply screen: cut and paste out of Leafpad works. Copy and paste also works. Suggest you change your favorite editor if cut and paste (as opposed to copy and paste) is so important to you.

Hammering out, BTW, is essentially over.

Let us see if things, Kwite, Leafpad, AntiX, MX-15, Plasma 5 Kubuntu, Iceweasel and FireFox, will work as expected
today. No, still behaving like it was last night.

I do not understand what all that means in relation to the Forum.

It is related to how the new data base does or does not use my(or anybody's) editors and when the cut or copy and
paste can used to answer the question. Must be only me and the added steps to get the job done. :popcorn:

Thanks for the clarification. I go messed up with some of the apps listed.
I cannot duplicate that behavior. Anyone else seeing this?
