    Hi all,

    Created this account but fat fingered my email address so the confirmation mail will go into a black hole of typos. I created another profile with a similar username with the correct email address but it's restricted more than this one.

    Could someone kindly take a look and either approve the other address or fix the email on this one (I don't see an option to change it myself).

    Whichever works best for ye.

    Thanks!

    I'm not able to assist, I can't see account details such as email addresses or change their status. You'll need to wait for an admin or @Boards.ie: Mike to fix this.

    I'll look into this. New accounts now need to be approved before becoming active.

    I don't think I have PM privileges. If you look at this account you'll see .com is actually .c9m so, from what I can see that's all that needs changed.

    Thank you!

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.
