It's been a while since I made any changes to the board, so here are a few updates! Firstly, smileys. Some of you had already spotted that I'd added three new smileys, but only some people could see them. I've now fixed that, and at the same time have made some more changes. Previously you could only access the smileys that I have added (ie all the best ones!) from the full Reply option, not in the Quick Reply. I didn't think the latter was possible, but have now found a way You will see a new dropdown box to the right of the Quick Reply section called "Select Smiley", and below that a "View All Smileys" button: Click on the dropdown to see a list of custom smileys, by name. There are a whole bunch of extra new ones, and I have tried to group them all in semi-logical categories - anything in ALL CAPS is a section heading: Click on the one you want to use, and it will appear as a preview in the space below the dropdown: If it's the right one, click on the image and it will insert into your post as normal. If you want to see all the available smileys, rather obviously you can click on the "View All Smileys" button instead. That will bring up a popup with them all displayed in the same order/groupings as the dropdown: Click on the one(s) you want to use to insert into your post as normal. To access the default smileys, or any personal ones you have added, you will need to continue to use the button as usual. From the full Reply box, both the Select Smiley dropdown and View All Smileys button are at the bottom of the normal smiley section (again, accessed from the button)

Next - quoting
I've found a tool which will help with quoting just part of a post, and which will include the quoted poster's name.
To use it, simply use the cursor to select the relevant part of the post that you want to quote. A transparent "Quick Quote" button will appear at the end - click this. The quote will be inserted for you in the Quick Reply box, or you can switch to the full Reply box and it will also be there for you.
(Won't work on the mobile site, and per my limited experience not on a tablet either I'm afraid)

And finally - the Pea Memorial Board. Some time ago, LavenderLayoutLady made a suggestion to have a Memorial board where we would archive threads announcing the passing of Peas and their loved ones. I thought it was a great idea, but haven't had the chance to set it up properly until now. The Pea Memorial Board is a sub-board of the History of the Peas, so it is only visible to logged in members. I have moved all appropriate threads that I could find to it, and linked them from the sticky at the top. If there are any threads I have missed and should be added, please let me know the details.

Very well done and Thank you! I love the new smilies and I am sure I will benefit from the quick/ partial quote feature. The memorial part- this place has heart.
