I have installed it, but all my custom BB codes still don't appear on quick reply panel...
I tried to use "Visible Custom" option, but any tag I put there getting rejected.
What do I do wrong?

If you want to show custom BBCode(s) on the editor, you may need to specify an image for that BBCode.

Almost everyone of my BB codes have an image. But which switch/checkbox turns them on to show? Because by default it didn't work.

Found what was the problem - when choose "Visible Custom" check box, I should not try to put anything in the edit box showing when you select, just check and that makes the trick

Ok... now a different issue
I have more BB codes then it fits in the bar (like 5).
I tried to use option "Quick Reply - Form Width" where it says

If buttons over quick reply are outside of the box, you may use this option to specify fit form width.

Note that you may set form width via Style Manager for each style too.

If that is the place, what should I put in there? I tried random numbers from 1 to 300 - result the same: the quick reply stretches to my page width (which is fine) and my regular post edit/new screen is aligned left (which is kinda weird).
I can certainly live with that, but how should I handle that, if it is fixable?
Thank you!

Every template that started with imp_ prefix is related to this modification, and you may edit by yourself.
