Losing text in post edits and PM's

Recommended Posts

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?

From Invision:

When they are losing post, are they making large posts? Or is it just any size post?[/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.

You care! - have a nice cup of tea and a pat on the back :)
