Clear your cache: http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cache If the problem still occurs, you need to descibe EXACTLY how you are experiencing the problem.

I have made some changes to the forum, and this issue now appears to be resolved. I can edit and make changes to the quotes and the whole quotation no longer disapears. Please confirm...

No. The security updates are often tied to the upgrades, which means you get the good with the bad. Gone are the days when we could wait till a version is 100% stable, before upgrading. As incidents of hacking/exploits have risen considerably over the past few months.

Yes, I've identified that there are issues. We're going to need to apply another upgrade, as these bugs seem to be inherent in this version of the forum software. I'll keep everyone posted.

It does not look look like I can do much about this quoting issue - it's a problem inherent with the WYSIWYG editor that is shipped with the IPB forum software. It is also the case that I don't have any option of picking and choosing which features come with a forum upgrade. Unfotunately, I cannot ignore the upgrades as they include important security patches that NEED to be applied to the forum software. I can't leave the forum unpatched, as that can cause security holes that can be exploited by hackers and script kiddies. HOWEVER, it is possible to disable the WYSIWYG and return to the simple text entry box that was used in older versions of the forum. To do this, click the tiny switch on the top left hand corner of the post box. That will disable the WYSIWYG editor, but you will still be able to using the quote and multi-quote feature.

I see no issue with posting images, if no one updates this thread in the next few days, will close it.

This issue is being investigated and will be fixed shortly. I agree, it's annoying. Give me some time to troubleshoot the problem and I will update this thread when I have a solution.

Ok, I've had enough of the bitching and complaining -- I've let it go on long enough. I've close this thread, if you want to whine, do it over email, PM or in the chatroom.

And what is your point?

If any of you feel you can do a better job, leave and start your own forum. Seriously, I don't (nor do any of the moderators) get paid to babysitter anonymous thin-skinned forum members. If you repeatedly break the rules, you are shown the door. Plenty of members have been suspended and or banned for bad behavior over the years. This is a fact... I should know; I'm the one that sent them packing. I simply cannot fathom how some of you can have the gall to lecture me or any of the mods about "doing our job". If I suspended or banned a member for every single infraction, there would be no one left, except perhaps myself and the mods. We use discretion when issuing warnings and suspensions and I think we've done a admirable job over the years. Go out and try to find another political forum that has the breath of topics and the overall civility that is present in MLW forums - I think you will be surprised to find how good you have it here.

We are looking into the image issue. It's related to the upgrade, it's going to take a while to track down the problem.

Is this issue still occurring?

Yes and no. Obviously, if everyone reports every infraction you see, the Mods and my self will be overwhelmed with reports, and nothing will be done. So keep this in mind - everyone is responsible for ensuring the quality of the forums stays at a high level. If you see petty squabbling, tell the posters to take it off the boards. We have a chat room and private messaging where members can squabble all they want. I will repeat it again - EVERYONE is responsible for ensuring things run smoothly around here. If we all run to the Mods every time something happens, nothing will be done. Lets all take some ownership in this place.

Exactly!

Read the rules and guidelines of this forum. You will find they are very thorough and address your issue of the definition. http://www.mapleleafweb.com/forums//index.php?app=core&module=help&do=01&HID=17 However, the only way to effectively deal with someone you feel is trolling is to ignore them. Its really that easy...

Thank AM - if you can take a screenshot of the errors or problems you're having, that would be helpful too.

What errors are cropping up? Everyone needs to clear their cache before they go any farther in this thread. I believe 99% of the problems are stemming from a caching problem. I can use the quote and the multiquote features with no errors. I can edit the quotes and add to the quotes, and no errors (formatting or otherwise) are present. See this page for how to clear your cache in all modern browsers: http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser's-Cache

I am glad you figured this issue out.

This issue has been resolved, I am closing this thread.

Ok, I will investigate this issue more thoroughly. However, if you encounter any further issues (unrelated to the quoting), please start a new thread in the Support forums - that way I won't overlook any bugs. I will update this thread when I have a solution. Thanks!
