[QUOTE=Adams' Apple]...
I really miss having the "Profile" info on the left side, by our screen names, [/QUOTE]

This feature is back! Clap

[QUOTE=Adams' Apple]...
and the "Profile" buttons in the post boxes. [/QUOTE]

The button is gone, but if you click the member's name on the left side of their post, it takes you to their profile.

[QUOTE=greypoupon69]When I do a "Quick Reply", there are 8 choices above the reply box.
But, when I do a "Quote" there are a lot more choices that show up to the left of the message box and above the message box.....hhhuuuummmmConfused
 
On the "Quick Reply" I don't even get an "Insert Image" box to click on. Confused
[/QUOTE]

"Quick Reply" is new feature that is just that...to post a Quick Reply.  If you just want to enter some quick comments without formating or images or anything fancy, it is quicker to use the Quick Reply form.  If you want to add formating or images, etc, you should use the or  or  buttons.  There is nothing to fix here. This is just a new "feature" of the forum that may take a little getting used to.

Thanks.

Adam, something somewhere is hammering the ending HTML tags.  It has been popping up in thread posts occasionally since the new version went in (the above QUOTE is an example).  But where I'm seeing it the most is when someone maintains their forum profile.  More often than not their forum signature is getting whacked, even when they didn't change anything in it - just changed something else in their profile.

This is happening anytime you "Edit" a post, or even in the P/M, also. It really wreaks havoc if you have a link, or "image" in the post. I've learned how to compensate for it, but it is weird.
I just assumed Adam knew about it, and was werking on a fix.

I may have found the fix for this issue.

Supposedly, it only happens if you are not using the RTE (WYSIWYG) Editor. (can be selected in your Forum Settings).

My "setting" was "NO", for the enable. I set it like this for some other problem I was having a long time ago.(gee..THERE'S a surprize!) I just changed it to "Yes", so this will be a test.....TongueOuchCry
 
 
Otay...THAT ONLY took TWO MINUTES to post, from click, till appearance!AngryAngryAngry   BUT...it DID solve the "edit" issue. I think I would rather just fix the errors in the edits as I go!!ConfusedLOL
Even the "preview post" takes about 30 seconds now..
I will change mine back the way it were...Ouch

Hecko All!
Lately, I have noticed that my head is getting too round.  Is this a new feature of the improvements made in posting, or what?
 
If not, please let me know so I can go down 25-35%.
 
Thanks.
