siouxforeverbaby Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I have a very random question. I was trying to post the Sioux Survivor thread and the items that are single-spaced with no spaces in-between lines on my Word document have spaces in-between lines on here. You used to be able to edit posts when things transferred wrong, but I can't figure out how to fix it right now. Am I doing something wrong or did something change?

jimdahl Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 In short, the forum's new editor is trying harder to correctly interpret the HTML that you're pasting in. So, coming from Word, the first thing I would do is try to make sure that Word doesn't think each line is a new paragraph. I think a future version (next few weeks to month) is going to introduce the option to paste as plain text (no formatting), which might also help with such problems.

MoSiouxFan Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Perhaps this has already been mentioned and, if so, I apologize, but when clicking on a topical thread on the main page, it always goes to the first page of the thread rather than to the last post read, like before.Thanks.

I guess the dots/stars aren't on the front page of the message board, though, which is where I usually start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
