Minimal configuration on DW Answer PRO

Hi DW,
Recently I purchased the pro version of your Q&A plugin, but I have a lot of problem with the styling and configurations.

1. I would like to remove the voting – how can I do that, there is no option in settings
2. I would like not to have a description section, just a field for questions – how can I do that, there is no option in settings
3. Private vs public could be radio buttons – usability! – how do I change that
4. I would like to remove the tags, not possible
5. I would like to have simple forms not a customizable toolbar for reply fields – not possible
6. I would like to adjust the module to my website stile – how do I do that – I followed your Styling section in the documentation, nothing is happening.
7. What do I need to do in order to have categories on the right side, there is nothing in documentation

Can you customize all this for me?
Need to say that there is not that much difference compared with the free version, and I payed for the pro version to be able to customize all those things above.

Hi,
1/ You can add the following code to the style.css file:

.dwqa-answer-vote, .dwqa-question-vote, .dwqa-pick-best-answer {
   display: none;
}

2/ You can open the question-submit-form.php file in the templates/styles/default folder.
Then find line 23.

<?php $content = isset( $_POST['question-content'] ) ? $_POST['question-content'] : ''; ?>
<p><?php dwqa_init_tinymce_editor( array( 'content' => $content, 'textarea_name' => 'question-content', 'id' => 'question-content' ) ) ?></p>

3/ At the moment, the plugin does not support to make Private vs public could be radio buttons4/ You can remove this field, in the question-submit-form.php file.
Or you can add the following code to the style.css file.

.dwqa-question-tag {
   display: none;
}

5/ You can enable the Markdown Editor tool in the Dashboard > Questions > Settings. 6/ You can download the following file and add this folder to your theme folder to customize the Q&A template.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/h02ecvenw18vdb0/dwqa-templates.zip?dl=0

7/ You can use the DW Q&A categories/tag widget to insert into the sidebar position.
If you still face their issue, you can send me your username & password of your site, I will check and help you resolve it.
