Can't expand quote to show all text (Down-arrow missing/unclickable)
When loading a thread, long quotes show only the first few lines. The arrow button to expand the quote is missing. Sometimes the arrow will appear after a reload of the page. What I did: Open a thread (Happens across the forum on many pages) What Should happen: A down-arrow lets you view the whole quote What happened: No…

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…

Google voice typing
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…

Alt text input field
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…

URLs not automatically clickable
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…

Extra text being added when copying/pasting from excel into the forum
What I did: Copied the below section from an Excel spreadsheet into the forum. What Should happen: It should paste directly into the forum and look like this: ESBS Monthly Saver at 6% Launched 1/2/26 Leeds BS Regular Saver (Issue 74) at 4.45% Launched 30/1/26 Mansfield BS My Milestone Saver at 6% Launched 22/1/26 Market…

Markdown Issue (Getting 'stuck' in a format)
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…

Unable to Underline Text in the New Editor
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…

Re pasting and autosave
What I did: In addition to mine and others previous threads about not being able to paste, my (non technologically minded) impression is that this is happening when the site autosaves, which is every couple of seconds. Is it possible that autosave could be changed to eg once a minute, or that we could have the option to…

Pasted content shows as code (grey background)
If you copy text and paste it into the forum, it can appear as normal text, but sometimes it shows with a grey background: What seems to be happening here is that if you’re precise when selecting text to copy, it will usually copy just the text. But if you position your cursor more roughly, it may (in the background) copy…

Paste no longer works in the Rich Editor
What I did: Copied text to clipboard and then tried to paste using Ctrl-V, or right click paste from the menu, or pasted from the Windows clipboard manager (Windows key-V) and many more inventive things I can think of What Should happen: Text should appear in the RTE What happened: Nothing Why it matters: The inability to…

Missing 'Preview' option when drafting new thread
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…
-
Partial Quote Mis-attributed Upon Quote
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…

Text cursor/position jumps around on mobile
What I did: Started typing a post What Should happen: When you press space the text cursor should advance on space What happened: The first word in a post exhibits odd behaviour, when I type the first word and press space the text cursor jumps back two spaces. Why it matters: You need to manually reposition the cursor…

Content disappears while creating thread (Merged)
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…
