Is it supposed to do that?

Thanks in advance

You'll have to give me an example. Most often, however, it's the missing 2nd [quote] tag that's probably causing the problem.

It just started doing it last week. I can quote posts verbatim with emoticons on fluff threads,but this evening I tried to quote the last post on the "Femme Cave" thread. There was nothing in the posting box.

Weird.

Hrmm.. potentially a browser issue (Firefox has been problematic of late). What happens when you post with a different browser than you normally do?

[Sweet Bliss]

Am currently using Internet Explorer, my kindle has NO problem quoting or posting.

Maybe the ancient cpu is the problem? No worries. I will just quit quoting posts with images.

I love using the keyboard again. doesn't take me an hour to say hello... lol

I already addressed this in the other thread. I've asked them to look into it but it's the server provider that is having issues. You will have to wait until they address whatever the issue is.

I can't post with out it quoting the post above . I can't rep all the posts I want to rep, a message comes up saying I'm not allowed to rep.on this thread, then I will rep the next post and it takes , i'm totally confused ~ help lol

[Linus]

Do you see the following (the icon under the red arrow):



And you are limited to how many reps you can do against a single user in a row. It's very possible, with prolific posters, that you may hit this and have to "share the love" to others.

Tell her that she needs to wait until I approve her membership. I see it in the queue. I'm sorry that i haven't done it yet. I had family commitments over the weekend and will be doing the approvals shortly.

Hi Linus,

Is there some way for us (as in each user) to change the background colors etc of the site? For some reason, when I read this site, my eyes get very strained. I don't have that with other sites, so I figure it has something to do with the way the site presents on my computer. Is there a way I can control the background settings?

Hopefully that made sense, I am not a techie.

Thank you!!

Not unless we upgrade the site to version 5. That requires a major change to the site and is a huge undertaking that would require some coordination between Medusa and myself. We've talked about it in the past but our concern is the look and feel for the site and keeping that. (from a navigation point of view)

Linus. I am still having the issues explained above ~ When I went to respond in the Here and Now thread I would have to erase the prior response ~ I used really enjoy posting and I haven't been able to in a very long time ~

And I had replied above. Did you do those steps that I asked you to? This is a browser/computer issue (your computer). There is something that is holding those settings in place. Another option is to try a different browser.

Oh.. and before I forget, what button are you pressing to reply to posts? The one with the feather or the "quote" button?

the one w/ the feather linus ~

[WolfyOne]

Ocean, I always use the button at the bottom left that says post a reply...try it, unless you're quoating someone.

Ok. I just wanted to make sure it was the Quick Reply one and not the Quote button. So did you try another browser or the steps I had listed before?
