Hamster Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 It may be a related problem but I find that when I edit a post, when I look at the preview (and edited post) I loose loads of text. In fact I only seem to retain the top portion of the post that would fit in the text window. This happens every time in "full edit" mode, but seems to be ok in "quick edit" ? I also did a long (for me!) reply to a PM and the recipient told me she didn't receive any of my reply and a portion of her 'quoted' PM was missing?

P-T-P Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 [quote name='phatmonkey' post='34141' date='Jul 19 2007, 02:32 PM']Next time the problem happens, can somebody copy the exact text that is left over, save it as a .txt file and attach it here. If it's always the same size, might help indicate what it is. From Invision: When they are losing post, are they making large posts? Or is it just any size post?[/quote] Hi, details of problem attached, my comments/explanations are in quotes " " while post details entered are in between the ----------- lines.

Hamster Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 [quote name='P-T-P' post='35280' date='Jul 21 2007, 04:15 PM']FYI Javascript errors gone now but still have this posting problem.[/quote] Think I may have cracked this - reply and/or edit a post in full edit mode, and see if you are using the "standard" or "rich text" editor by toggling the top right icon above the insert list icons. I've found that using "rich text" seems to cause the problem. I must of toggled mine inadvertantly when attempting to format large posts.

nedsbeds Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I've also been having no end of problems with the rich text editor. Lost an entire post when I previewed it. editing posts with it turned on can be flakey too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 [quote name='phatmonkey' post='42689' date='Aug 7 2007, 11:17 PM']I've disabled the rich text editor, it just seems to be causing problems. Nobody cares do they?[/quote] You care! - have a nice cup of tea and a pat on the back Hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
