Forum:Old Wikia Switch

Ever since we got this new Wikia system in late 2009, it has caused me nothing but problems. It was so much easier before. If I acidentaly add one more ' to make a word bold, the whole page goes bold! Also the lack of the spellcheck is annoying, and cutting and pasting is a nightmare. One of the reasons I stuck with Brickipedia is because they don't utilize it. I want to know if there is any way I can switch it back to what it was before for me, because I have trouble editing with it and I've been stuck with it for almost a year now! Please if anybody nows how to do it, let me know. Thank you, GG360
 * You seem to be talking about the Rich Text Editor, you can disable this in Special:Preferences > Editing > uncheck Enable Rich Text Editing. -- 13:27, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

(edit condlict) Looks like Pcj beat me to it. !
 * If you mean not to use the (usless) wysiwyg ('sometimes') Visual Editor, just turn it off in your preferences control panel. I turned if off a soon as i found out there was an option and have been editing in the old editor ever since as the new on is useless with templates & it quicker to type the code than move the mouse & select something and the click a button etc. anyway for most edits & i have a number of custom buttons added for usefull functions.

 * Thank you both! Now I can return to "decent" editing XD Thank you! User:GameGear360
 * Also for spell checker, there are plugins for both IE and Firefox that will give you a descent spell checker. -- 19:18, August 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Though they won't protect you against typing "descent" when you mean "decent". :-P -- ◄mendel► 14:07, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well Spellcheckers while helpful, they are not a cure for dysgraphia 8) -- 16:58, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks more like paraphasia and agrammatism to me -- typing with a keyboard instead of writing seems to work well for some people with dysgraphia. Do you still feel the pain? -- ◄mendel► 21:24, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Typing does eliminate the pain. it kinda annoying i was out of school before anyone told me writing wasn't meant to hurt. -- 00:20, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
