At some point, there was a slight change in the directory structure.
That could require you to manually define the $boltwire variable to
get things hooked up right, and possible other vars if you have a
non-standard installation.

There was some desire to see the actions be an actual ul list, but
that requires additional css in the skin. I think these lines will
likely do it:

.actions ul { margin: 0 0 0 -3px; padding: 0; display: inline; }
.actions ul li { margin: 0; padding: 0 5px 0 5px; display: inline;
list-style: none; }
.actions ul li+li { padding-left: 5px; border-left: 1px solid #999; }

Note also that code.skinvars was renamed to code.snippets. So if you
have custom skinvars, they should be copied over to the new location.

It should be there. I see it in mine and in the default code.snippets page...

I don't know that this is normal...   Normally each one has a unique
login key, based on the field name. You could try setting manually in
site.config

fieldKey: uniqueid

If it interferes with your logins, just delete it. I don't think it's
used in the login encryption scheme. Just defines where in the session
array info is stored.

I usually leave the kissing to my wife and daughter. Thanks for the
offer though! And glad it helped.  I think you'll be glad to get the
upgrade completed.  The only remaining changes in going to 3.xx should
be under the hood, though some plugins could be affected. And then I
plan on taking a long break from pioneering. Just fixing little bugs
and improving the docs here and there. That kind of stuff. Just using
BoltWire. I think it's pretty close to done.

Cheers
