1. what device and web browser are you using?
2. did you click the " Quote button to get to the view shown in your attachment?
3. what happens when you click the post reply button at the top of the page? do you see the advanced editor or just the attachment button.

Using an iPad mini 2 at this moment. I can try my iPad Air 2 and/or PC when I get home.

I clicked the Edit button to bring that up.

I have a blue Post Reply at the bottom of my page. It is at the bottom right edge of the box I am comprising this reply in.

I sent you a PM, please review.

I believe this issue may be isolated, however, if anyone else is missing the little "A" Advanced Editor icon, please let me know .

Mark,

I just installed Chrome on my iPad Air 2 and still am lacking acess to the advanced editor when using it to access the site. Crazy huh?!

[Bajora]

I just created a new account Mark, to see if the problem was tied to my account. The second account has the same problem. No advanced editor. :(

Thanks Mark, PM read and replied.

I just found my iPad Air and tried this. I was able to replicate the issue using the Safari and Chrome browsers. This is what I found:
1. if you post a reply you see the camera icon, post link icon and attachment icon
2. if you are editing one of your existing posts you will only see the attachment icon.
3. the advanced editor button does not appear using safari or chrome on an ipad (I'm not sure about either on an Apple desktop?)

I then tried Google Chrome on my Android tablet and the Advanced editor icon showed up as expected. So I can only surmise that this is somehow an bug with iOS devices. I will log this with our developers.

Another FWIW... Installed Firefox on the iPad and saw the A the first time I went to create a new thread. But only the first time. After that it is also missing in FF.

Thanks I'm a little behind on some of the lingo.

It's definitely an iOS thing. I contacted the software vendor this morning and made them aware of the bug. They have entered it into their tracking system and will assign a developer to investigate shortly. These things can be quick or can take months, it all depends on the complexity of the fix. Hope you can get buy without adv editor in the meantime.

Tnx Mark. A PC is never far away! :)

any chance of having the page numbers below the thread titles ,so you can click on the last page (or 1st ,2nd ,whatever) instead of having to go into the thread first? hope that make since..

[Aros]

Indeed TSHobbies, that is definitely on our task list. We would like that as well. :)

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but if you click the little blue arrows (looks like a fast forward icon) next to the post, it automatically takes you to the last post of the thread. See the image below, the buttons are circled in yellow.

Thank you, that will save a bit of time!

I have been trying for 6 days to get my password to change. I can log onto forum using the temporary password I was given. Yet when I try to change my Password in settings it says that the password I am using to log in with is Invalid. I have requested a password change via "contact us" with no response. I dont seem to have the option to change what it says below my user name under avatar either.....

Sending you a private message olwarbirds...
