foxxykat1223 said: @Shishio-kun I don't know if you can see it from this or not. It's not just getting the code of my large posts, it's also that I can't add images to any posts now. Not the old way or this "new and improved" bull way. I have been collecting cards since I started and now it's pointless if I can't even post them. This is fine for new users and small posts, but it's crap for larger posts and collectors. That sucks! Yeah I can't see your link but also I can't paste or even view your post via the quote most times. I could never see the source code. It's so odd even small chunks of it won't work it's like they are tied to the original post and they are lagging the entire thing. Collectors are one of the big parts of the long-term community, so hopefully they can fix it! |
| @Shishio-kun It sucks beyond belief that I can't edit anything of mine anymore. All I can do is just save my cards and wait for MAL to fix this huge glitch which knowing MAL could take a really long time. |

It is probably just how the new BBCode engine handles line breaks. It may be easy to fix.Example: How it looked before: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1886009&show=150#msg65315390 How it looks now: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1983710&show=150#msg68180187 Before i added for example "one" size and one color tag for the entire post and now that code is repeated in every line. Also the editor seems to hate lists. |

All I can do is just save my cards and wait for MAL to fix this huge glitch which knowing MAL could take a really long time. You know what I was just trying to work with a few posts, it is glitching BAD! It also keeps formatting random parts wrongly or adding the wrong code tags. Terrible update for clubs, collectors, and support if these errors aren't fixed. |
| Yaaay, I sure do love having to start any post edits with fixing whatever got broken by that idiotic new editor after just clicking an edit button (: Honestly, at first when I saw that update I thought it's really nice - I certainly didn't want anything like that, but, hey, there's thankfully still an option to switch to the regular editor, and the new one will surely be useful for many people. Now I see how stupid of me it was and I'm very sorry, MAL, for ever doubting your ability to implement any changes in the shittiest way possible. |
 |
| I can't say most but a lot of people on here are collectors and club managers. This sucks for them. Just because it's new and improved doesn't mean it's better. Of course there's always glitches with new stuff, but this one is a huge problem. |

| While this function is helpful, there should be an option to choose whatever mode users want as default. It is annoying to switch to source mode every time I want to edit something that cannot be done in this new mode.

Same here, I cant source (switch to code view) with the bigger posts, near the end of this recording: https://imgur.com/qcLeGdz They should allow us to switch between the classic editor and modern one. |
| The main issue is that the code isn't the same when we go back to edit it later. If the code simply stayed exactly as previously entered each time we revisit it, that would solve the main problem. |

Kind of a bug but didn't feel like reporting it. It's since been removed. |

| I've barely been using MAL in the last couple of years, but was pleasantly surprised to see this feature finally added to the forums when I decided to leave a post on an episode thread. I mean, it's about freaking time this website starts updating to modern internet standards, but I'm not going to complain. With some luck, they'll invent a dark mode feature within the coming 10 years. |
| umm do I need to enable it somewhere? Don't see on forums. Disabled bbcode toolbal scripts as well |
 |
| Big update, tho should have been made years ago, and given the amount of bugs people have already found, I think I'm gonna refrain from editing posts for a while |

Also it keeps the list numbers black. Thanks for reporting this bug. It seems like switching from the visual editor to code editor adds the [*] tag. amlg said: Hmm... is it just me or does "Copy & Paste" not work for this new BBCode? I can't copy or paste anything in the text box... Could you provide a more detailed description of this issue? What is it that you are trying to copy, and which part of the site (forum/club - new post/edit/reply, PMs) are you using the editor? |

Hibbington said: So when you press the center button on the panel it puts a on every single line, which then puts a space between each line. Thanks for reporting this bug and the cause. elkensteyin said: Still no ability to edit posts in a club I see. Could you elaborate on this statement please? Shishio-kun said: Will be a good update if you can resolve the many problems with quoting and formatting Thanks for compiling together these bugs and suggestions. For the mentions, I believe that might be because the BBCode editor retains any formatting from the source when you just do ctrl-v, much like on Google Docs. If you want to paste without formatting, using ctrl-shift-v should work. @Sad @deg Thanks for bringing up the issue with quotes too sukusen said: all of my codes are a mess right now i cant even update anything without breaking everything Hi, thank you for reporting this. Could you please link the affected post? |

But it is kinda annoying when you just want to quote a single sentence. It's now way harder to isolate bits of text from a long conversation. Also once the text formatting is enabled: bold/italics, I can't seem to turn it off again. Are you experiencing this when using the quote toolbar here? Also, can you provide some more details on where you were having trouble with bold and italics? I'm able to turn it on and off in the visual editor. |

| Thanks for the update! On a related note, are there any plans to increase the inbox limitations? I prefer to hold on to my messages and am constantly find myself hitting the threshold. Considering profile comments can go well above 1K messages, I think it is appropriate to allow for more space to those who prefer privacy. |

| @firefractal no problem hoping its fixed soon also on a related note, your profile shows youre online but when you post here in this thread its showing youre offline so i hope that online status between thread posting and profile can be synchronize |

Found another issue, this time with color tags outside of list tags:[color=#CCCC33] [list] [*]ITEM 1 [*]ITEM 2 [*]ITEM 3 [/list] [/color] Result:
When I go back in to edit, the editor changes it to this: [list] [*][color=#CCCC33]ITEM 1[/color] [*][color=#CCCC33]ITEM 2[/color] [*][color=#CCCC33]ITEM 3[/color] [/list] Which results in this:
This isn't as egregious as the other faults of the new editor, but it really just contributes to the point that the editor needs to preserve the code entered into it, not automatically change it to some arbitrary predetermined format every time it's opened. |
"An earnest failure has meaning." "Nothing is definite in this world. But it's okay. Some things within me are definite." |
| If I am allowed to advertise, there's a small script that adds BBCodes to other places outside of just forums and private messages; it does not have any of the new tags, though: http://greasyfork.org/scripts/5709 |

| Wow finally, this looks really cool. I was expecting some buttons that insert the tags at my cursor like most Markdown editors but no this is a fully WYSIWYG editor. Good job. |

| ok now this is based. thanks |
| at least give me an option to default back to how it was without this. this caused a lot of my codes to break. |
 |
| ^ yeppp agreed, good feature for beginners but not people who does advanced bbcode i know theres a way to disable it by touching the embed code icon but its useless, if u ever like did a wrong code u have to restart all over and quoting is such a mess plus the centering position and all is hard to fix |
|
| Image size and height options!!!!! YES! How many times I've embarrassed myself posting a picture that suddenly is wider than the whole internet |
| This is so incredibly annoying. Do the people that worked on this even use MAL?? The forums???? Who decided it was a smart idea to just change any and all freaking existing bbcode on posts!? Like, okay, so I can't work on old posts and now I'm even getting told how you want it to look like.... I'm getting random new bbcode tags added where I don't want them. You are changing how it looked to how I didn't want it. I can't even recover the previous format cause you already changed it to what you wanted! How can an update take things so far back that it's detrimental. Gosh, things like these sure makes one wish to move somewhere else. This is arbitrarily changing what one sets for our tags. Everything. Now there's a minimum font size, a max font size, a set spacing, a set way of setting color.... I'm getting annoyed just trying to see it all.... I welcome the new feature as it was much needed, but for the love of it all.... just... get a beta testing website or some shit. Heck, I bet a good chunk of us would be more than willing to test things out before they are freaking forced on us! (โฏ°โก°)โฏ๏ธต โปโโป |
