is it only me, or does anybody else have these funny HTML-like
formulas instead of proper working quotation marks since yesterday?

And if it's only me, any suggestions what I might suddenly be doing wrong? ... :roll: ...

hmm, that's a strange one.

i did upgrade the forum software at the end of last week, so its quite conceivable that a bug crept in without me spotting it :|

As far as I gather, the problem occurs only within PMs ...

aha! thanks :)

i've managed to recreate it.

- view a pm from your inbox
- hit the 'quote' button
- preview your reply, including the original quoted message

instead of

Code: Select all

[quote="username"]message here[/quote]
you see

Code: Select all

[quote="username"]message here[/quote]
it seems like there's some character escaping/replacing going on when your preview the reply, and that it's not working quite correctly

i'll look into it 8)
