First of all, when I insert an infobox into a page (add a new one) it says "there are no fields to edit". Is there a reason why it won't automatically include all the fields that it usually would (I can do paste all the parameters within the template via source and it works fine)

Second, when I insert a new one it has a shade of blue or completely rids of the custom orange that I had implemented on the infobox. Is there a way to get the custom coloring back?

Third, in some cases it renders words like "image" and "image hover" as a parameter rather than it being invisible. Is there a way to do all of this. More or less it doesn't work like the original and would much like it be like the original infoboxes, rather with the new portable code

Thanks,

 * 1) That's because that functionality hasn't been added yet, and the visual editor is not yet officially supported by the portable infoboxes. For now you'll have to do it manually.
 * 2) That's likely a caching issue . Give it some time for the cache to refresh. It'll probably work well by tomorrow, unless the css wasn't defined properly (see Help:PortableInfoboxes/CSS or http://fanz-of-lucy-worsley.wikia.com/wiki/The_Styling_of_a_PortableInfobox).
 * 3) It renders parameters that have been added to the template, unless there's a bug.
