HI Wanda
Click reply in the bar above the icon of the person you want to reply to. To create aa new thread you just write directly in the text editor. The problem with the architecture of the forum piece we use is that when you reply the text editor appears way down the bottom of the page – so it feels disconnected, but it does all work exactly as it should if used correctly. I’ve been looking if there is a way to have the text editor appear next to where you reply, but has seen nothing yet that does this!
Thanks
Neil
