editing posts/quoting posts

**cesium** · March 2nd, 2015, 11:13 AM

I´m still having problems with these issues. I get a blank page in the message box when I try to edit and quote posts. Has it something to do with my settings or is ti something else?
Currently I´m using the copy/paste method to outsmart the system (copy the said post and paste it on to the blank page), but that is just a makeshift solution to the problem. Please help.

Most probably it has something to do with the settings. By default, the forum uses the WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get)-method.

This has caused problems during the phase of major issues some weeks back - so I guess this issue belongs to the ones that would be taken care of later until the major probs are dealt with.

You can change these default settings via User Profile:

Settings and Options > Edit Options > Message Editor Interface > use Standard or Basic instead of Enhanced (WYSIWYG).

That should do the trick for now.
