    Hi,
    How do I change the message reader / viewer back to the default?
    I changed it a long time ago, but don't know how to change it back to what the default setting would be.

    Thanks,

    Yes, this is the section that contains what I need to change.
    Currently these values are:
    ../xtrn/DDMsgReader/DDMsgReader.js
    What should I use to change them back to the default?

    For quite some time now I seem to be missing messages from time to time in some areas.
    This seems to occur a lot more often after I add an echo to a message group.

    Just blank them out.. I imagine they were blank before you added DDMsgReader.js?

    For quite some time now I seem to be missing messages from time to time in some areas.

    Hmm, interesting.. When you say missing messages, is that happening during a newscan (not showing some new messages), or when just listing or reading messages? I can't say I've seen that, but I'll look out for that. And how do you know there are messages missing?
