I tried to edit a reply of mine and tried the "Use Full Editor"-button but nothing happens, it doesn't seem to be possible to remove an attachment in the other edit mode...

[Albert]

Is anyone other than me able to successfully use the "Full Editor" when editing a post?

  Albert said this might work in a post that answered a few of my questions  This was a bug in the forum software that has since been fixed. However, your browser may have cached the "broken" Javascript. You will need to clear your browser's cache and/or force a refresh of the page and that should remedy the issue.

I cleared my cache and hit Ctrl + F5, but it still doesn't work for me using Firefox.

I tried and the full editor automatically showed up after clearing the browser cache.  That's odd, though, because on this post, the quick edit showed up and the full editor doesn't work.  Hmm...

If it goes to the full editor immediately, that means the Javascript is not being processed on the page.  If the full-editor button isn't working (and you see the "quick" editor), the Javascript is working, but part of it is broken.  

Version 3.0.4 of the software should be out in a few days.  Invision did fix this issue with this new release, but I already applied the fix here.  So I'm at a loss as to why it's not working.  What makes it worse is it works absolutely fine for me.  

I will investigate this soon--this is a pretty hectic week for me as I have a ton of work I am trying to catch up on.

I restarted Mozilla FF, cleared the cache and reloaded Atariage.com, no difference. "Use Full Editor"-button still does nothing. I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3.5.3.

I tried Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702 and it doesn't work there either, it reports an error on the page after pressing the "Use Full Editor"-button.

This is the error, sorry, it's in Swedish but I think the error is probably understandable anyway:

Thanks for the additional information--going to try it with a few different browsers and see if I can get one of them to fail.  If I can, then it should be easier to track down.

I've had the same problem using Google Chrome "solved" it by changing to the Lo-Fi version which gave me access to the full editor.

Just get 'error on page'...perhaps there's a 'posting' bug when using it for editing first post

Can you give me more details?  Which specific post were you trying to edit?  What browser are you using?  Did you use the quick editor (the one that appears immediately after you click "Edit") or the full editor?

Thanks,

[Tempest]

Full editor works just fine for me.

It works fine for me also.  I'm not sure why it doesn't work for some people.  I will spend some time investigating soon.  A new version of the forum software was released this morning and I will be installing it in a few days.

[gamerz]

Just to let you know, it doesnt work for me either.

[Chickybaby]

I don't know what happens when a member tries to edit their post after the editing time period is over. Perhaps it was just too late to edit it?
I have to double click everything using IE 7 and it's a real annoyance.

Quit using Internet Exploder.

I agree, but that's still pretty odd.  I haven't heard of anyone ever experiencing that particular issue (having to double-click all links).  I did look at Invision's bug database last night and couldn't find any mention of this.  I have IE7 installed in one of my Windows virtual machines and it seems to work fine in this regard.

Can't use Mozilla/Firefox. Won't run on this version of Vista 64bit or isn't compatible with AOL DSL (that I don't have to monetraily pay for) and crashes everything. I love how people alwasy say to use something else but don't take into consideration that some people can't for whatever reason.

Nor me.  Full Edit button does nothing.  I'm using Firefox 3.something with Windows XP.

[Albert]

I'm going to update the forum software today.  If the Full Editor button still doesn't work for people after that, I'll raise holy hell about it.
