    Hello Everyone,

    I recently installed the HiSoftware AKS. The HCCE seems to work well, (essentially a big find a replace) which got me from 400 validation errors to 40! Sweet! But I'm noticing some major problems. In addition to the HCCE I installed the WebPart Smart Adapter which I think might be the source of my problems, but I can't be sure. 

    I'm posting these here in hope that there is some brave soul out there that has run into these and could help me out. I would be very grateful! I can't find information on these issues anywhere.

    1. Custom web part properties seem to be global now, rather than instance specific:

    I created a custom web part a while ago that is intended to be placed on numerous pages across my MOSS 2007 site. 

    On each page I change a custom property so that the web part displays something different on each page. 

    This worked great up untill recently. Now when I change the properties on one part it now changes on all them across the site, I loose my customizations!

    2. Info path xmlformview web part won't load .xsn's, javascript errors!
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    3. My master page seems to break with sharepoint menu data getting thrown around

    The username in the login menu for some reason get's thrown outside of the <html> tags which naturally is invalid XHTML but worse it breaks the entire layout brutally in IE7. As IE7 freaks out if anything is outside of the <html> tags.
