    Editing a post/thread?????????????

    Tried to edite a post/thread I started yesterday. I first typed the text in word then I pasted to the post. Now I cannot edit the post to add pictures. When I click on the edit button it brings me to an empty box, the post box is all blank - where did all the text go?????

    I too had this problem not long ago. Seems to have worked itself out. I did notify Spink of the glitch. I did not hear back from him, so did he fix it or not. I don't know.
    The measure of a man is not how much power he has, it's how he wields it.

    Should still be there unless you pulled from the host.

    It's been an issue for some of us for quite some time. Sometimes things all work OK, other times not so!!
    Take a kid hunting its more rewarding than shooting an animal yourself!!

    That happens a lot if you make folders, and put the pic in a folder. This software (vBulletin) will look for the pic in the location you specified before you moved or deleted it off the Photobucket server.

    PS.....Had to edit the post, and it worked fine. I guess keep backing up, save your text often , and keep trying.

    OR: Write it all up in Notebook (On your Startup Programs bar, lower left of desktop) and preview it at leisure.
    When you're done, copy , paste here and post your thread.
