Forum post editor problems

Post by Fangbeast »

Ever since the forum software was 'changed' or 'updated' (No idea which), using the tag buttons no longer works for me and I don't know what I can do to fix that. I have noticed that including some url's causes them to be enclosed automatically and not always properly.

For instance, highlighting any text and using the Quote, Code, Img and URL buttons does absolutely nothing for me.

What do I have to do to turn their functionality on again?

They work here just fine. Must be a problem with your browser?

I've noticed this too. I think the URL detect is a little too strict, but this is a phpbb3 issue - not one for Fred and co.

I saw in the profile prefs that automatic url passing can be turned off to solve this but I still miss the old tags functionality.

no problems here with Firefox and proSilver skin...

I had such problems on the old forums software with one of the skins, not with the other.
oh... and have a nice day.

Will have a play with the different skins and see what happens, thanks for the idea.
