Hi Karen,

Though you can't turn off the ability to choose to mark the post as edited or not, you can edit this out of the templates. It's fairly easy - here's how to do it.
</font>
  • <font size="" face="">Access your server via FTP</font></li>
  • <font size="" face="">Go into your "ubbthreads" directory</font></li>
  • <font size="" face="">Locate and enter your "templates directory</font></li>
  • <font size="" face="">Find the files called editpost_withpoll.tmpl and editpost_nopoll.tmpl</font></li>
  • <font size="" face="">Open the files and locate this bit:
    <pre>
    $markeditselect
    <input type="checkbox" name="preview" value="1" $PSelected />
    </pre></font></li>
  • <font size="" face="">Comment this out, by adding HTML comment tags around it, so that the end result is:
    <pre>
    <!--$markeditselect
    <input type="checkbox" name="preview" value="1" $PSelected />-->
    </pre></font></li>
<font size="" face="">

Next question - without looking at exactly what you've commented out, it's hard to say why this column is still appearing (can you give us a link to where it appears?).

If I'm following you correctly, you want to add the button above the instant graemlins table, but below the posting box? In the newreply.tmpl file, look for this:

<pre>
{$ubbt_lang['POST_TEXT']}
<br />
<textarea cols="$TextCols" rows="$TextRows" name="Body" onkeyup="storeCaret(this);" onclick="storeCaret(this);">$QuoteBody</textarea>
</pre>

And you'll want to add the line that's used for the button, which looks like:

<pre>
<input type="submit" name="textcont" value="{$ubbt_lang['TEXT_CONT']}" />
</pre>

(Also, you'll want to add a break so that the button appears below the post box) So your final product looks like this:

<pre>
{$ubbt_lang['POST_TEXT']}
<br />
<textarea cols="$TextCols" rows="$TextRows" name="Body" onkeyup="storeCaret(this);" onclick="storeCaret(this);">$QuoteBody</textarea>
<br />
<input type="submit" name="textcont" value="{$ubbt_lang['TEXT_CONT']}" />
</pre>
