Subj : SlyEdit - Cannot Cross Post

I cannot get cross-post option when ESC is pressed for menu.

/c no longer works as documented in readme
ctrl-c doesn't trigger cross-post either

The following history mentions as can_post setting



1.75     2021-12-11   Refactored the cross-post menu and quote selection window
                     to use DDLightbarMenu instead of SlyEdit's own lightbar
 code.
1.74     2021-01-23   Making use of the new K_NUL and checking user input
                     against null, SlyEdit no longer thinks a 0x0 (sent with
 CTRL-Space on a Mac) is a timeout.  K_NUL was added on
 Jan. 21, 2021 by Rob Swindell. (This update was from Deon
 George)
1.73     2020-03-31   Now uses DDLightbarMenu instead of SlyEdit's own internal
                     choice menu.
1.72     2020-03-04   For cross-posting, to make sure the user can post in a
                     sub-board, SlyEdit now checks the can_post property of the
 sub-board rather than checking the ARS.  The can_post



Is this can_post property within Message Area settings (toggle)?
why would it not be on my default ?

Another sysop using 1.75 of slyedit these cross-post options work. So wonder if something changed between 1.75 and the current 1.89c.

I've downloaded latest fix about slycfg; and confirmed config file is being changed and read; by changing theme colors. The SlyEdit.cfg has allowCrossPosting=true


...The poor man.  He's completely unspoiled by failure.
