We have launched a new editor for the forum posting and profile editing screen. The new editor is not only faster to load but also gives mobile users the same type of semi-WYSIWYG forum posting option previously only available to desktop users.
Old spellchecker option has been deprecated in the new editor as it now supports browser’s built-in spellchecker which is more accurate, customizable, and comes bundled for free with all modern desktops and mobile devices.
We do expect some rough edges on the new editor so please send in your bug reports and help us flush out all the quirks.
Fixed:
- Problem with network login using Google/Twitter/Facebook account.
- Error connecting or frequent disconnection to the admin area from certain internet service providers.
- Stats bar graphs not able to scroll horizontally for some.
For those having issue with “loading charts” within the Stats area, please clear your browser cache and reload.

Why the forum replying feature is not working with Opera Mini web browser (mobile)?
I liked the old forum posting better. This is giving headache.

Will take some time to get used to the new editor…
especially the fact that when you write a reply and hit enter, the ‘Undefined’ marks the line where you should write, but your pointer moves two lines below that point. If you don’t know that, you’ll continue to write and end up with a post containing lots of ‘Undefined’ lines.
Think that should be changed.

I use a Nintendo 3DS on mobile for writing on forums and it won’t let me write anything! We don’t type the way you do on IPods and such, please fix the matter. Thank you.

It isn’t easier at all! Its extremely diffiult, it sometimes won’t let me post, I can’t send links and the ‘Enter’ button doesn’t work anymore!

This is giving a headache.
On my computer, I now have to use html formatting to make paragraphs and they occasionally don’t show up.
Links work less than half the time as well.

I’m also having to use html in the forums. It’s almost impossible to read (I have poor eyesight). My browser is IE8

I recomment using Google Chrome 25.0.1364.160.
Tried for the last 20 min, but could not reproduce one of these bugs there.
Firefox has the formatting problem, and well… will try it out with Safari in a few.

Oh for the love of- WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE FORUM?! This isn’t easier, nor it is faster. It is more, like, confusing, irratitaing and frusttarting!

Reply doesn’t work for me at all (GNU/Linux, an older firefox version) and old hardware.
Wysiwyg has not worked before, but I don’t want wysiwyg, anyways, and disable styles in order to get to tge plain textfield. But the posting button does no longer work at all.

Cleared. Charts are working again. –The number of visits/visitors was given even when the charts weren’t working, It’s still nice to have them back.

I was wondering, is it possible to have a strike-through option when posting stories? I think you had that at one point, but it’s been removed.

I can’t access the regular site so I can post a chapter on my story. I am using this through my cell phone and have posted chapters previously by just clicking on the normal site, not the mobile site. No matter how many times I select ‘regular site’, it just brings me to this mobile one. The only thing I can think of is when I cleared my history a couple weeks back? Help, please, I need to update my story!

Everything I had in Bold and Italic on my Profile is gone and every time I try to put it back when I hit Update Profile… it won’t save it. If this goes on for too long… I’m going to look for another site

The profile is annoying. It was bold, but then now if I update it, it has to be made bold again and again. Please change? It takes longer and is annoying. -_-

On the forum posting, it won’t even load the new editor. And, when I break into paragraphs, it just squishes them up when I post it. Now that is annoying. I haven’t touch my profile editing yet, because I just don’t want to deal with the hassle of everything. I am glad I am not the only one having problems with this new editor. Please, launch back the old editor!

I’m using my 3DS to write this, and I made this account on it too. I will be switching to a laptop, soon. Please tell me how I can post stories. Also, it would be amazing if you could show me how to view my account. Thanks!
