'Use Forum Jump Menu' option in 'General Settings' is disabled.
You must enable this to get this hack working.

Nice Hack.

Here's a feature others may benefit from, when you select a forum from the dropdown box, below the dropdown it shows the forum description?

Hmmm -

I was just informed that when users of Firefox try to post - (after they get the warning, select the correct forum) - they can enter in a subject - but not enter any text into the message box.

I have tried it - and under MSIE - it works - under FF - you can't click into the message box at all...???

If I want to upgrade to this version, will I need to add everything again?

If you have version 1.6 and above then just import XML with allowing overwrite. Phrases are same, just check settings after upgrade.

If you have 1.5 or older version installed then uninstall it before installing latest one.
