Yesterday, I and one or two other members had a problem with Windows 10 Edge browser where the "Use rich formatting" button would not work on this site; today the problem seems to have been resolved as I was able to upload a test image, however, on some browsers, like Safari, other's are still having problems. It would be helpful if either this thread or a new dedicated Tech's thread for any site problems/issues could be made into a sticky so it stays at the top. That way forum members can find it easily and add any technical issues they are having on this community. Thank you in advance.
Will start off with Bob's post from this morning:
Quote: Yes the site has plunged downhill again. Rich Formatting button is not working on Safari either, though instead of the old error page message I get a "That was unexpected page" telling me the problem has been logged and reported. It remains to be seen whether anything happens. Personally I would start a new thread about the issue, but believe it or not I can't actually start any New Threads. So I would be grateful if anyone using a different browser can start a new Thread on the Community Upgrade page and try and alert the powers that be. Even if it is a browser related issue, Safari is not exactly one of your rarely used browsers.

It appears to be random and there's no logic to it at all. Some days Edge works fine then without altering anything, the "Use rich formatting" doesn't work and I keep the software updated, sometimes it affects both Edge and Firefox and then it may affect Edge but not Firefox or Chrome. I now just switch browsers if things don't work on here although there are occasions when none work ! This has only happened quite recently. An explanation from the techs on here would be much appreciated - I can't believe it is purely a browser problem as links can still work on other websites. Maybe there's a glitch in the "use formatting" link. Today, all is hunky-dory so fingers crossed.
It half works with Opera on my tablet which I'm using now. The first line of options of the edit dialog is not showing and only part of the second line. All very weird.
