@Xtc they may not since the release of phpBB 3.3.   Will check on it.  It could also be this new editor....

I've got centering (yuk!) to work and changed pitch size but can't figure out how the font colour change works.

Unfortunately I dont understand the update as it has caused a rather crippingling issue.  Me and one of my friends here have a long running RP, and chatting with a couple of other people I filled up the PM fold.

No fear I made an overflow folder and my settings dont release messages when the first folder is full.

But ever since this update was put in this morning I have messages that cant be released and whenever I try to move messages into a folder I get a "Invalid Form Submitted"  which I have no idea how to solve considering Im checking boxes to be moved into a folder.
Oh well Ill just delete some fluff messages.
Except even trying to DELETE messages leads to a "Invalid Form Submitted, please change form and try again etcetcetc"
Well okay, the oldest message isn't an important one.  Ill just press release messages that are on hold.

That does nothing it wants me to clear space.

So basically this upgrade (is there a way to go back to green and black this is an eyesore right now) means I can not access my PMs at all.  Which is rather annoying.  Though I can make a new account that seems like a pointless maneuver when everything was working until we suddenly got this weird update.  Anyone know how to fix this issue?  Maybe someone explained it and I just missed it

Can't help with the technical stuff but to get the green theme:
User Control Panel
Board Preferences
Global . . .
It's on the page there.

This is actually a problem in the update.   I can't fix this particular issue until phpBB devs release a hotfix.  I will keep an eye out on the forums, but until then, if you need to delete a message, you will have to manually "view" each message and click the "delete" button on each.

Just a quick comment, I have the opposite feelings on this color scheme from ticklescare! 

I always used the green/black, and was surprised to see this greyish-blue when I logged in today, but I LOVE it.  So by a happy coincidence, I am glad it reset the color schemes!

Thanks for all the work you do to keep the site running smoothly, and to give little happy surprises like this!

The view between editor and end result look weird and are not in sync. Even the preview is off. Example:Stuck again“You are not really good at escaping, are you?” Lucas asked the tightly taped female on the floor of the family room.“Hmmpppffffff.” Sally responded, not being able to do much else.She had heard how Tamara had been taken away and then all she heard was the boys playing on the game console. After a while, the boys stopped playing and she could hear them sitting down next to her.“Should we release you?” Jacob asked her.

Thanks for the continued support to keep this site running!

Two minor questions: In the current theme the names of yellow/orange members (contest judges/centennial club) are very hard to read. Would it be possible to change this to something more readable?

The X of the notification on the top is black and invisible (the click this away button). Could you change it to white?

and the pick a different theme.

Just tried posting an update to https://tugstories.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5764
Used a copy and post from a 'word' document.  Took all the paragraphs (double line returns) out.  HELP!

Wolfman, Chadmc90 has said that, if it is being a real pain, he will take the new editor out.

At the moment I just go from Word to Notepad to the site, that seems to work for me. Little extra work, but not much (1 more Ctrl-V, one more Ctrl-A and one more CTRL-C)

Again, thanks to Chad for updating/fixing the site.  How do you mention someone on this new site?  I knew this at one point but for whatever reason, it is not working for me now.
