Question: Edit fail

[Flareen]

heya >.<


lately I've had it a few times that when I edited my post some things got messed up.
For example in my current thread:

https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/258975


I had my "looking for" list in a spoiler. Later on when I made a edit it suddenly had a spoiler tag right in the middle of it and even though i edited it and removed the spoiler it kept coming back D: It only stopped appearing when I totally removed it. Similar things have been happening in other posts ofmine as well >.<
Such as when I changed the text colour the rest of the text would be in that colour as well even though I tagged them to be in another colour @.@

It's probably due to the post editor you're using, which sounds like the WYSIWYG editor. Switch over to the Enhanced post editor. I think this setting is somewhere on the Edit Options page in the User CP. That's the nly thing I can think of that would cause it off the top of my head, since the WYSIWYG editor doesn't take too kindly to you manually typing in the tags yourself.

Oh hm - I tried looking for that option but couldn't find it.
Do you know where exactly it is? D: I checked user cp-> Edit Settings

 

[donavannj]

It's specifically under User CP -> Edit Options -> Miscellaneous Options. Switch to the Standard Editor if you are at the Enhanced Editor.

I changed the settings and... I'm still having the same problem x.x
If you check the thread now... there's a break in the middle of my list turning it into 2 spoilers.
I delted the extra spoiler several times but it would always come back D:
And this time I dont even see the extra spoiler while editing x.x

I'd suggest you rewrite your post using the enhanced editor from scratch.. it seems the wysiwyg editor has added a shi..ton of useless and un-needed tags and there might be a limit on characters you can use in a spoiler (not sure really).

I'd especially look at all those nested [size] tags

In any case its a VERY hard to read post (editing wise) and should be cleaned up.

 

[Flareen]

Alright I suppose Ill shove it all into word and do a clean up ^^"
Hopefully that will fix it up x,x
Well if this works - thanks in advance :3



EDIT:

Ok Ive cleaned it up and it seems to work. Thanks guys :3
