Text Editor Selection
There are three text editors to choose from:
Plato (WYSIWYG),
Euclid (BBCode with Highlighting) and
Legacy (BBCode).
Plato
Plato is the default editor for most.
It's a visual editor, or WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get). You can not see the BBcode that it creates unless you go into source mode.
Up sides:- Makes formatting easy without BBCode
- Cleaner to look at
- Visualise what you're doing without leaving the page
Down sides: - Can be a bit buggy
- When using the 'Add Image' button, instead of using the [img:123] format, you'll need only the numbers! (just the 123 in the case of this example)
- Alternitivly you can use the [img:123] in source mode instead
How to get to source mode
Legacy
The Legacy editor is a no frills BBCode editor. Its also the old editor, so is often popular with those who've been on WA a long time.
Euclid
Euclid is an editor optimized for BBCode.
Upsides:- Colored BBCode tags
- Highlighted BBCode tag pairs
- Built in search function
Down sides:- Doesn't work well with browser spellcheckers

Hello, there are articles in my profile section that I have long since deleted, how do I remove them from showing up there? They are in the latest works, most viewed, and most liked sections. When clicked on they go to my homepage because they have already been deleted.
have you made more articles since then? i'm not sure there is a way other than to push them out and force an update with new articles
