That's been happening to me also - there's no way to get rid of it except to hit send and then delete it right away before someone posts under it. Any other ideas of how to get rid of it?

It's a new feature I added and posted in the About this Site and added the instructions here:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Basically, if you start a post, but need to go to another thread or another page/topic, or another window's application not related to the forum, when you come back your post will still be there.

If you start a post, but change your mind and you don't want to send, delete the post within the reply box, refresh your page, or click view new posts, it should be gone.

The new lines separating the post and signature are great, but it's too long and throwing off spacing on my iPad

I took it out for now until I figure out what is compatible for everyone.

--TO VIEW ABC CLIPS AND OTHER LOCKED MEDIA FROM OUTSIDE US--

for those outside US, you should have Google Chrome. Then Installed inside app called Media Hint. It serves to unlock all the ABC clips, Bing video and other format that usually is restricted from outside US. Its free and so easy , only take you 2-3 minutes. Just give it a try... yes

Can someone help me with a series of tweets. I was trying to make a post that shows about 10 tweets. For the tweet I clicked on embed tweet and copy and pasted it into my post (with media). I then did that for the other tweets and then previewed it. In the preview it shows up correctly, but when I send it you only see up to the first tweet without any media. What am I doing wrong? Is there somewhere with instructions? I am unspoiled and afraid to go digging. TIA.

ETA: I figured it out. It was cutting it off because of an emoji. So I removed them all and it posted.

You beat me to it. If a post is messed up, always check emoji's. They show up as square boxes in your preview. Usually that is the problem as this fourm doesn't support them.

I'm glad you were able to post the tweets! yes

Is there any reason why creating new "topics" inside of thread is no restricted? (In the Bach Australia section) - I can't make the contestants threads now. no idea

The permission in some threads are locked for creating new topics. I prefer to be PM'd or post anywhere on the forum the request when anyone wants a new topic created.

I created a Contestant Topic, you can now add Contestant Threads.

Okay, I am not sure where to put this, but I am sure it is going to be needed sooner or later....

HOW TO EMBED FACEBOOK VIDEOS:

Copy-and-paste the URL link of the FB video you want to embed.
This should look something like this:

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]693594780713370
or this
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]693594780713370&set=vb.478928618846655&type=3&video_source=pages_video_set

Just copy the 15 character text in the video URL(bolded above) and replace the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with it in the code seen on this site:
(I can't post the code here - it will automaticall format and the code won't be visible)

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Set "width" to 720 and "height" to 480.

Example: - The above FB video embedded:

When I post a message and the page reloads itself, it always took me back to my message. Now it has been going to the top of the page instead. I noticed it also happened on another Forumotion forum I am a member of. But now I have realized it only happens on my iMac, and not on my PC. Please, does anyone have any idea how to fix this, it is driving me crazy!
