Apex Insider Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) I don't think I'm the only one having trouble with the built-in editor on this forum. The editor injects huge paragraph spaces when you copy and paste to it. I suspect there are some hidden formatting codes but they are not accessible. I'm not sure who's moderating this forum but can this be looked at? A lot of rich text editors will allow you to see the raw formatting code. Perhaps turn this on? Also, when editing a topic, the button at the bottom says "Edit Topic" when it really should say "Submit" or "Save Changes". Don't mean to nitpick but as a former UI guy, I have to mention it. The availability of this forum is much appreciated by the community as I'm sure you're aware.

BlueB Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 When I use mobile version and start a new reply, it often inserts my previous reply?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 ^^ I've noticed that too, except I'm on full version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 It drives me absolutely nuts too. However, this software is used for another forum that makes this one look great. I think it's a glitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Brammer aka PSR Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I almost quit posting this last week because of this! Rob had boards I wanted for sale, and All I Could Do was post my pic! luckily, I had his email info, and secured the board. Annoying, to say the least! But, they'll fix it, I'm certain (Oh, Hey, I can TYPE again.. Hmm, must be better already!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apex Insider Posted January 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) This is what happens when you copy and paste plain text. These are supposed to be double spaced lines. Well, of course, it worked that time. Edited January 18, 2017 by Apex Insider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selecting no removes those issues for me. Is that not happening for you guys? Nope. You must be in admin mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duck is either really tasty or really awful; it's rarely somewhere in the middle. Ho s***, I see what you mean. I'm feeling totally lightheaded.

Corey Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 My issues aren't even with pasting, more like whenever typing a reply. If my phone or tablet (both Android devices) autocorrects a word, the cursor jumps to some new/random spot, and includes parts of the word that were autocorrected. Even without autocorrects, the cursor jumps around pretty randomly. I've tried 4 different browsers with no change. The issues are not present on Vbulletin forums.
