    Just noticed there when trying to upload a .docx there that boards (or maybe VB) doesn't like it, could someone have a look to see whether it's possible to allow these files?

    Thanking you kindly.

    You can save the newer MS Office files (docx, xlsx etc) as their previous incarnations (doc, xls etc).
    Then it should upload just fine.

    But yeah, might be an idea to include them as options to save people having to do that all the time.

    Yeah, I changed it and uploaded it before I started the thread :)

    But I'd imagine given time that people would run into this a bit more.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
