Lol basically yes. You have to either mess with the code or you get a package which someone has ore written

The phpBB forum is an amazing resource of knowledge for both the coding and the package stuff.

I'll do that tomorrow and take some pictures at the time so you can see how it all plugs into the back end.

It's easy now, but at first I had no idea at all what to do with the 3 sets of text.

OK, i found a new one, installed and configured..

How's that ?

We've now changed the button, it's a weird eye shaped one next to 'normal' above on the buttons.
