Default Cannot edit or post links

I have been unable to use any of the editing features in the Reply to Thread box, or the Post New Thread box during my last couple visits. None of the icons work (they are non clickable) and i have no idea where to start looking to test my end of things. I also noticed that i am not being redirected automatically into the site during sign in and must click the link to redirect me, which is it not a big deal for me, but for all i know, is a very important detail for you. I am using Win7 with IE11. Thanks.

Im guessing you are on PC? Have you tried logging in with a different browser? Try Firefox as your browser and see if that helps..

Yes, pc. Tried Chrome (im on IE right now) and it appears to be working, but thats not a fix for IE11, its a workaround. I want to use IE11, not a workaround. There are no issues using IE elsewhere. Just here. So, does IE not like CF, or does CF not like IE? And why just me? I have gone thru security settings, etc. and nothing has changed. I kept them the same as my old windows installation (everything was written down), and CF worked perfect then. I dont understand.Another issue are paragraphs. When i post, multiple paragraphs post as one large paragraph. This is with IE11. I have not tried Chrome yet for this.

This is with Chrome.

One paragraph.

Two paragraph.

edit -Chrome separated that into two paragraphs. Sentences, whatever. They posted as intended. IE11 would post that as One paragraph.Two paragraph. No separation.

Weird. I just added Cherokeeforum.com into Compatibilty View and now the upper row of editing tools have names when hovering over them, but the lower row does not. And clicking the [More] link below the smilies takes me to the top of the page. So i removed CF from Compatibility View and now the lower row of editing tools have names, but the upper row does not. And clicking [More] does nothing.

This may not have anything to do with the issues i am having on CF, but i do recall messing with the Tracking Protection a couple years ago for another website. I cant remember the who or why, but it did fix a few things. If only i could remember what. The entries all pertained to Google. Are there any entries that must be allowed for this website to work properly? For example, under Content Provider there is an entry for googleapis.com, followed by iquery.min.js under Content. That sort of thing.

I think i fixed it. Everything is clickable once again, and i am automatically redirected into the wite after signing in. BUT everything is slow. All i did was go back thru Internet Properties and found a couple items mischecked that i overlooked. Active X stuff mostly.

So far, so good. Paragraphs are working, too.
