I was just reading about Virtual Pages at the PPX site.

Can I use the same plug-ins on different Pages or UI's? For example, if I have Journal Bar on one UI, and I also have it on another, when I switch? Or are plug-ins limited to one UI?

Thanks,
Rayanne answered the questions beautifully, but i thought i'd add that you can use the same plugins on different virtual pages in a user interface (ui) and you can use the plugins in more than one or in as many themes as you want. As for it being on another when you switch:

When you install a ui or theme as i call them, you are given only the settings that the author of that theme put in place before packaging it for distribution. Sometimes you get a plugin already setup, and sometimes you don't depending on what the author does. I usually send mine out as blank slates for people to setup how they want and only configure appointments/tasks and a couple other links to default programs.

So, you configure each of your themes the way you want them, and those settings stick so that when you come back to the theme the settings will be there. You will have to set your plugins on the different themes unless the author of the theme has pre-placed them there for you. Setting up the plugins isn't hard to do. Simply follow the faq or manual links in my signature for more help or contact me via email or chat and i can walk you through anything personally.

p.s. Glad to see another Pennsylvania person. Vram is one as well. :)
