Hello fellow members. I installed SP last night v4.5, many of the features were left ready so I could this morning work on creating the forums topics, etc.. This morning shortly after I started working, I've got a message in the control panel that v5 was available. I upgraded without major setbacks. The thing is that if I want to create a new post, the row of B, U, Links media, font color is not there anymore. All I see is a row of smilies at the bottom. Please, attache screen grab.

Also, with FireFox, my text shows below my member's info leaving a white empty space. With Google's Chrome it does not happen and my text starts right next to my avatar. Here is a link: http://modelkitsreview.com/?pa.....-etiquette.

What did I do wrong? it was not happening with v4.5. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

No Mr Papa, since I don't recall having to do it with the 1st version last night, I didn't do it with v5. Where can I get it?

Thanks for your speedy reply.

Got it! I can't thank you enough. Any idea why the long white space on the post?

looks like its because you have an extremely narrow width allocated to the forum... and you wp page css is adding some padding...

so in your sp theme, and we highly recommend making your own instead of editing ours, in the spTopicView.php template file, change the width of the spPostSection to 80% instead of 84%.

You might also try the Stacked theme. It puts the info on top above the post. It might look better on your narrow theme.
