    Both bright and dark 'forum default' templates work improperly:

    - very top links (Talk to / Boards / Adverts / Arts / Biz / etc...) are static (no drop-down on hover),

    - same issue with links under my nickname and 'My Forums',

    - header remains sticky regardless of settings ("use sticky haeader" unticked)

    - home page (boards.ie) tabs ( Latest Posts / My Forums / My Threads / Trending / Thanks) have no content, tabs are not switchable.

    Cleared cache and cookies - no change. Disabled browser's plugins and extensions (Firefox 22.0) - no change. Used Safari instead - no change.

    Problem does not exist on randomly checked 2 other templates.

    Appeared yesterday or the day before - I am very sorry, but don't remember exactly. :o

    Will provide screenshots upon request.

    Sounds like a javascript issue alright, are you being presented with any javascript errors / warnings in the browser console ? (In Firefox hit "Ctrl - Shift - K" and unselect Net / CSS / Logging and refresh the page, in Chrome hit "F12" and select the Console tab and again refresh the page).

    Failing that a screenshot of the homepage along with a screenshot of http://www.boards.ie/diagnostics (with your IP address removed if possible) would be great as a next step.

    Thanks, R

    Please try another browser, there seems to be significant problems with your Firefox - it's not loading jQuery and complaining about some vBulletin javascript that at this stage is many years old, untouched for a similar length of time and has functioned flawlessly in the past. I cannot reproduce your issues here on Windows 7 with Firefox 22.

    It might not be a bad idea to try creating an alternative Firefox profile for testing, it gives you a proper blank slate to work from but be warned that you'll lose your history & settings if you delete the old profile

    Already tried so (I have 3 FF profiles, including blank one). Also, as mentioned above, tried totally different web browser with no luck either. :P

    Anyway, whatever you did, everything's back to normal now, so thank you very much indeed. :D

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.
