Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

How do I make the small 'st' or 'rd' to go with a date? Eg: July 15th. Thanks

In Word and other word processors they do automatically ...

Otherwise I think its called Superscript (super meaning upper as compared to sub)

Once you do the 'th' or 'st' and hit space, it'll be superscripted. It's an Autocorrect feature AFAILK and it could have been disabled. If it doesn't work for you automatically, do Format --> Font or Format --> Paragraph and tick Superscript. I think the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + shift + += key.

OpenOffice 2.04 seems to do it out of the box

if not maybe look at Tools AutoCorrect...
