Trouble posting and editing - Again
Starting today i am having issues posting and editing no matter what portion of the site i am on. I was unable to post ANYTHING, ANYWHERE. I kept getting an error telling me my message was too short, even tho my post was atleast 50 words. The font reverted to what i believe was Cambria, which never happened before. I dont know what it usually is, but it wasnt Cambria. Also, NONE of the editing tools were working. Click on them and nothing happens. I was using the same WYSIWYG editing format i have used since joining.
I found that by switching to the basic text format (which i am using as i type this), i was able to post. But i lose the smilies and other editing tools in doing so. Not cool. Another observation is that the font is no longer Cambria. It is using whatever the site default is. What that font is, i dont know as it is not highlightd in the font dropdown list. Parts of the website work, and some do not, by changing the format in the UserCP. That to me would suugest a website issue, yes? I am a member of a Mustang forum and that site works 100%. No issues at all posting. All editing tools, etc function 100%. That website is powered by Vbulletin.
Seeing as this website has issues using Windows 7 and IE11, but the Mustang site is working perfect using the same, it would seem that something doesnt like Cherokeeforum, or Internetbrands. I am not part of any other Internetbrands powered websites to check.
And what is this websites email address, for issues such as this in case i lose all posting functionality? I seem to have lost the address. Thanks.
Edit- Cherokeeforum.com has been added to the Compatibilty View Settings for quite some time. I just took it off to see what happened and the same issues persist, so i added it back to the list. So far, switching from the WYSIWYG format to the basic text format is the ONLY way i have been able to post anything. Still digging on my end, but have not found anything amiss. I have every setting written down should something go wrong, and so far, everything is as it has always been.
