The last step will be to set it up so that it will *exclude* tags in question, thus officially making it effective as the spoiler filter I had planned from the start of the site.

• wp-jquery-lightbox is active for image display- however, it is extremely out of date. Starting the process to look for a new lightbox plugin to replace it.

• Require Featured Image plugin is installed, but not activated. This won’t be activated until we clean up the posts that don’t have featured images.
