Forum.. Message box problems?

Cleoriff — Sat, 06 Sep 2014 07:22:45 GMT

Hi all

Not sure whether this is just a problem with my netbook...or something affecting others.

2 nights ago the Forum went down for about an hour around 2am in the morning....(I was getting the Oops we are having a problem' message)

The following morning (yesterday) all seemed back to normal...except the message reply box?

The Insert link>Insert picture>Insert video boxes are now being displayed (for me) in a completely different format. No longer the usual colour and design but black and white.

*The insert link feature is not working....

*Spellcheck is not working....

I cannot take a snip to show you as I don't have that facility on this netbook

As I say this is happening on my MSI netbook. I rarely use my phone to access the forum

It just seems coincidental that it all happened after the forum went offline?

Hi Cleoriff.

I've just checked on my MBA and it's the same for me.

Not being funny BoB but I am quite pleased to hear that!...in that it shows its not just me

I know @MI5 looked last night and he said all appeared fine. Though I wasn't sure whether he was checking via phone, tablet or laptop....

I can only talk about my netbook...as I haven't as yet checked via my S3...

My iPhone won't use the Rich Editor but my MBA does and on selecting spell check it does pop up with a message saying that nodule is un available.

What I see.

I see no differences on the tablet, phone or laptop? All the box buttons are working though slightly larger and modified and much clearer?

This is what I'm seeing on all devices:

I see both of your pics...however (and I am not colour blind..honest) the 'insert picture' icon USED to look like a green tree and is now black and white. The insert video icon was a different colour also.

IF it was just a colour change I would have no problem.... but the fact is that since the colour change ( on my netbook) some of the icons aren't doing their job?

I have no problem inserting a picture...but the inserting a link doesn't work....(Copying and paste the link and when I press insert the box just closes)

Neither does spellcheck work

When I click on spellcheck..the box just comes up but with no message at all..?

However...I am still having the problems as stated.......

I will try tomorrow on other laptop when I get home.....
However we all agree that the colour of boxes have now gone to black and white..
Spell check is coming up with an error massage
And at least one of us is having problems inserting links via the link box...?

I am convinced that this all happened when the forum went down two nights ago (2am)...when it came back ...these changes were noticeable...:smileysad:
