Can I disable the FCKeditor (for me personally anyway)? I think it (or something else changed within the last 24 hours) is disrupting my work flow :( . The way I was formatting the text on Caswell yesterday, I'd copied three apostrophes to the clipboard then was pasting them before and after each route name. Now when I paste after a route name it automatically sends the rest of the text after it to a new line. The edit window also then loses focus meaning I can't use the keyboard till I click it again. --Tom Dudley 00:50, 2 August 2010 (BST)

I think you can... we can disable it altogether if we don't find it of any use. I think Alan was having trouble with it too... Let me know if you cannot disable it. --81.103.57.161 01:10, 2 August 2010 (BST)

Tom, the FCKeditor is disabled and has been since yesterday afternoon. The editor that you see is the new WikiEditor. You can disable that by going into your preferences-editing and then disable the new editor. --Tim Hoddy 09:14, 2 August 2010 (BST)

Yeah, I didn't know whether it was my computer or the wiki editor causing the problem last night. I had very slow response to key strokes and then crashing after 100% CPU usage by explorer. I thought it was the wiki editor. Just tried it now on my works station and it seems fine.??--Alan rosier 10:28, 2 August 2010 (BST)Although the signature and timestamp gets placed at the start of the page??

Cheers Tim, I had had a go at disabling it last night but I thought it was just the 'enhanced editor' option. I've now disabled all of the beta options and its working fine now. --Tom Dudley 12:58, 2 August 2010 (BST)

Tim, I'm still having real issues editing. Can you take me back to what I know please. (ALAN)

Go into edit/preferences and turn off all Lab Features and Beta features. That should do it. --Tim Hoddy 21:43, 2 August 2010 (BST)

I've disabled the extension completely... so all should be fine. --Tim Hoddy 22:33, 2 August 2010 (BST)

If you still have problems, try reverting back to the MonoBook Theme in Preferences/Appearances. --Tim Hoddy 22:40, 2 August 2010 (BST)

Cheers, Looks better. I'll see if it has stopped crashing my laptop when I get home tonight. --Alan rosier 09:36, 3 August 2010 (BST)
