Decline What happened to the 'Strike' feature of the forum?

The 'strike' feature is the one where you could type a word, select it and then click one of the buttons at the top of the text box to make a line go through that word, effectively striking it out. This was a useful feature to have, but I'll admit that it wasn't used all the time.

Now the button for it is gone. It probably got wiped during a 'forum upgrade' and was part of the Codex's custom settings. Any chance it could be put back, please?

Search harder, it's still there.

Hopefully I'll be able to bring the old buttons back soon.

What buttons and dropdowns do you assholes keep talking about?
I don't see any difference since the supposed upgrade?

No idea why they'd put it there when it has nothing to do with block formatting.

Update: I was looking to use the Strike feature just now, and checked the images provided by rusty_shackleford to know what buttons to click to get to it.

Guess what? That button isn't there. Instead there's a "Inserts a spoiler!"-button and nothing more. WTF?

Fortunately whydoibother 's method works perfectly, so thanks very much for that! :D

Carry on.

Old school FTW. I still mostly use my own BB code, but the implementation for images and video here is actually a lot better than many other forums, so overall I tip my cap to the functionality of the site.

Being nice will change my name, right?

Agreed. As poorly as some "features" work on the codex, the interface here is miles above any forum I've used, except maybe MySpace.

At least MySpace would let you embed sounds and songs into your posts for maximum "entertainment"
