Issue: Bug When Submitting Threads/Posts/Blog Entries

[Belldandy]

Whenever I submit any new threads, posts or blog entries, it comes back telling me that I haven't entered enough characters / the post is too short.

My last blog entry (which published) was easily 200 words long, thus the word count wouldn't apply. That goes for the last 30 posts or so I've made recently.

I have to go back in my browser and resubmit for the post to show up, and if I make any edits at that time to the post, they don't show on the submitted entry i.e. I added another sentence to my blog to see if it would help, and it didn't show up when published.

This has happened for the last two or three days.

I've already wiped cookies and cache with CCleaner, if that's relevant. I did it for a different reason, though lol

I just think it's a bit irritating to constantly have to go back and resubmit for posts that shouldn't have an issue anyway.

Just confirming that I have been having this issue as well for about a week, but only when posting/commenting in blogs. I am using The Johto Elite skin if that info is needed.

Oh, good, so it's not just me lol

I'm using "Let's Fly Together" in Mozilla Firefox (Windows 8.1).

I think TheFattestSnorlax told me he was having this issue as well, yet I don't think it's happened to me lately. Might be different between members or something. PC skin I'm using right now is Chromatic so it might be an issue with some skins.

I haven't really been on PC in a while, but I have popped in every now and then. I've always used Let's Fly Together (since release, anyway!) and I've never had this happen. I'm thinking it might've been a change on the board that's irking certain skins, as you said, to behave wonky.

I've also had this issue in the past too with blogs. Also use The Johto Elite, for what it's worth.

Just to be sure, if you're having this problem, try logging out of tpc. clear any pokecommunity.com cookies, and delete your browser's cache. Close and restart your browser, log back into tpc and try again.

I already did that personally (not sure about others). I did that before even posting because I know how cookies and cache can be silly :P and it still didn't have any effect.

I'm not sure what's causing this and as it's not happening for me and others, it makes it hard to troubleshoot and locate what may be causing it.

Do you preview your posts before posting? Are there any differences when you preview VS not previewing and just posting?

Does it do it when you change styles to ones not already mentioned?

Belldandy: ccleaner won't erase Firefox cache while Firefox is open/running so use the tools in Firefox to clear pokecommunity.com cookies / browser cache and then close browser and run ccleaner.

Nope, no previews. Not sure whether there are differences because I don't typically preview.

:$ haven't tried changing styles either. When I ran CCleaner, it prompted FIrefox to close, so it was closed when it ran; however, since Adobe Flash 12 is bugged and doesn't work with Firefox lately, I'm now using Chrome nad I do not have the problem I had in Firefox when posting. Not sure if it's maybe a plug-in I have in Firefox that's causing an issue (all I have is AdBlock and Ghostery, though lol), since cache was properly cleared.
