Otto42: many, many thanks, a problem solved. I can’t tell you how grateful and relieved I am.
I lost my identity. This is an alternative. The forum still thinks my original ID is a spammer.

I just installed the upgraded plugin with no solution.
Doh, seems my original ID is still thought of as being spam. Still, this topic needs a bump.
