I understand, thank you so much. I will keep this last bit for future reference. If I get brave I might try it while we're still in test mode and not live.
Thank you for all your help,
Alisa

I have found one additional problem with Custom BB Code. When I put the buttons in for the regular forum editor, it throws the CMS editor out of whack by putting the "example" verbiage into the editor.
Example: On CMS Editor, instead of the HR button showing, it had the following
[HR*] wraps horizontal rule line around selected text [/HR*].
My solution for now...remove all the custom buttons and do the BB Code manually in posts.
I also updated the custom HR code to take out {param} so that now we get a 100% width line by inserting wherever we want the line to appear (without the asterisks).
Code:
<hr style="height:3px;width:100%;noshade=noshade;display:inline-block" />
This is all very rough and I'm sure there is a better, cleaner way to do this than what I've done...but so far it works in 4.0.3 on all of my styles, custom/default/fixed/fluid.
