Hey, indeed the Old Wysiwyg editor you're using is no longer showing its icons correctly, that's because the icon version changed and caused an issue with it - we are no longer supporting this editor since it has been deprecated. I suggest switching to Euclid editor which is similar and is receiving active support from us!

Great. any chance you can explain how I am supossed to change this? I am not updating your website for you. I pay for this site and expect it to work. I built the world in this website and have not changed any major settings. So why, when you changes the editor did it not update in my world?

I known your team doesn't really care but I would love for someone to explain to me how I am supposed to change the editor as you suggested I do. I am not a webdesigner nor am I some form of code writer, and it now seems I need to be both of these in order to properly use and maintain this site that I have paid to access. It would have been nice if this was explained in one of the many site sponsored videos i watch or one of the site created articles I read before deciding to upgrade to Grandmaster for an entire year. Any help on how to do this would be greatly appreciated, even if it is just a link to an article on how to do it. I cannot seem to locate any form of actual help on this site.

A lot of false assumptions on your side in bad faith towards us as a team certainly don't help the situation, but we are trying to help all users when they encounter problems. Here - Switch Editors Guide - you can find detailed steps on how to change the editor of your world and it doesn't require any coding skills or anything else, you just need to change your world or article settings. And we don't force the change when we make updates because many users want to keep using older features because of the way they're used to on our website (this will including changing the world editor will not force the change on your existing articles to avoid breaking their format, which can happen depending on the BBCode you use, there is a step-by-step checker when manually changing the editor of your articles that will help you resolve any such issues).

We have a very helpful and supportive community on discord you can join for questions like these when you're not sure how something works, a very detailed Learn Section with many guides and the Bug Report system here for issues that might be caused by a bug. Assuming we don't care is a pretty pessimistic way of looking at it.
