What I did: I came late to this thread Nothing important — MoneySavingExpert Forum One of the annoying ones where the original poster didn't like responses so went back and deleted the original post. Luckily someone responding had quoted the post further down What Should happen: I should be able to read the content of the…

What I did used Google voice typing to input text into a reply to a thread What Should happen: The text should appear as I speak. Below is what actually is produced ie thevfirst two words duplicated and then one more is produced and then it stops. PS it works fine everywhere else ie outside mse forums What happened: The…

What I did: Added ALT text to an image What happened: The box for typing the ALT text is very small and does not expand, which ironically is an access issue for the cognitive load of typing thorough alt text. It makes it difficult because it requires holding a string of thought that one can no longer see, and is extremely…

What I did: Quote post and attempt to cut/highlight What Should happen: As above What happened: Nothing Why it matters: Being more specfic Device/Browser: PC/FF

What I did: Pasted a URL in a post. What Should happen: The URL should automatically become a live clickable link without any further interaction. What happened: The URL just pasted as un-clickable plain text Why it matters: I realise there is a button to make a link clickable but we shouldn’t have to do this. It’s extra…

What I did: PPut text (Leaving the new coding double letters there) Where it says text in italics above, was meant to be * text * (without spaces) I appreciate this is how one does italics in whatsapp but in whatsapp if you go back a space it undoes the italics as you've deleted the last asterisk, whereas here it keeps the…

What I did: There is no option to underline text. What I used to do in the old editor is a) highlight text then do "control+U" or b) switch to HTML and insert < U > and < /u > at the relevant places. (Spaces are deliberate.) We need an underline button. What Should happen: My text should be <u>underlined</u>. What…

But if you position your cursor more roughly, it may (in the background) copy…

What I did: Creating a new thread What Should happen: The previous editor allowed a user to see a draft of their thread/post while drafting. This does not appear to be possible under the new editor What happened: Unable to see how a thread/posted comment will appear Why it matters: Not having this facility will lead to…

What I did: Fully quoted a post that contained a partial quote What Should happen: The partial quote should remain formatted as a partial quote (it should look like the above screenshot, rather than the below plain text within the quote panel) What happened: The partial quote formatting was lost, mis-attributing the text…

What I did: Drafting new thread on comps board, I was trying to insert a link to the relevant competition page, but then the text box for the new thread disappeared and left me with just the discussion title and closing date boxes, so I was unable to complete the task. I saved the draft, closed the page then tried…

What I did: Trying to type with 1 line spacing instead of 2 line spacing. Answer What Should happen:Should be able to type normally and have the choice of 2 line spacing by using the return key. Answer What happened: Just went straight to 2 line spacing. Answer Why it matters: Can't make sense of anything posted if I have…

What I did: Answer Tried to post a normal update to my diary What Should happen: Answer Should post as usual What happened: Answer Got a red error box with message that the body was one character too short.
