RC5 is underway witht he above changes made (read a few posts up) im still having issues with hiding the notice section via js (refreshing the page for some reason) and it frankly looks ugly without it there im currently downgrading my test server to PHP5.2.12 to test on since 5.3 is pure evil 8- )

Thanks for your work!! :up: :up:

BUG REPORT!!!!

After I enable this addon, I cant use the switch Editor Button when creating or editing Articles.

In the forum and comments it still works tho.

Disabling this Plugin, and I can use the button!

Now that's interesting. I had noticed the advanced editor not working but had sort of assumed it was another 401 bug.

How odd GCBOS doesnt touch anything like that...
Update: Tested on localhost works fine for me if the text editor is showing the raw tags just highlight them to worked for me.

Just one last thing to fix in RC5 (i hate javascript) and i shall release it if any one can help with it (show the notice container only on certain events please pm me).

Update:
Im currently working on a surprise feature, which might push back RC5 for a day or so. I have the html etc done its just the backend that needs doing now!
