Forum removes formatting.

[KYBLUE]

Why is the forum not posting paragraph formatting when posting a new thread in the DIY e-liquid forum? I was able to post the same text correctly in the Sandbox forum. Will soon know if I can here. ENJOY

Above post should have had three line breaks.

I don't know exactly what is happening, .... but I know when I post using my CHROME browser that there are times when I can not 'reply with quote'.. unless I switch to FIREFOX. I was hoping someone would post something about this... not sure if it's a legitimate change of some sort or just Gremlins in the Machinery, if you will.

If you're using html code for paragraphs, it won't work. The forum software automatically deletes any attempt to use HTML within your posts.

 

[KYBLUE]

No HTML. Just enter for line breaks.

Find it odd it doesn't happen in the Sandbox forum.

As the pretty blonde said, ghosts in the machine, I suppose.

Enjoy

This sounds like a local issue with a browser editor script.

In other words, as this doesn't affect anyone else, then it's an issue with your software. So please can you try:

1. Use another browser and see what happens.

2. If the other browser works fine, then it looks as if there is a glitch on the first browser, related to the script it uses to edit online forms.

if you can get to that point then please let us know - thanks.

OK... it works fine in Firefox..... (but I don't like Firefox anymore since I began using Chrome).... and "sometimes" it works in Chrome, (As it did just now when I responded to this post using the "Reply with Quote"... or sometimes just the "Reply" function alone. It really is a 'hit' or 'miss' sort of thing with Chrome the last few days. I have another ECF Peer who uses Chrome exclusively and he indicated he isn't having this issue.... so, maybe I should delete my browser History when this happens and try again?

I really appreciate you for looking into this rolygate...

Normally a Firefox user. Could not replicate problem in IE.

Could not replicate in FF after logging out and deleting cookies.

I'm thinking auto-save glitch but who knows.

Thanks for the response.

Will post further details if any arise.

OK well let's try this first...

1. Open the Chrome browser.
2. Clear all history. This means flush the cookies, cache, browsing history.
3. Close and re-open the browser.
4. Go to ECF and try to edit/post.

If you don't flush everything then whatever is causing the problem could stick. Be sure you got everything in #2.

1. done - 2. done - 3. done - 4. done and, 5. done!

... and I was able to "Reply with Quote" as you can see with no problems.

Thank you!
