      Edit Errors

      Quote:

      You aren't doing anything wrong (except for submitting an initial post that needed editing 😉). Editing forum posts has been broken for quite a while. My experience has been that when I clicked Edit, I got a textarea with the post for editing, but then when I submitted it, the page displayed with the old post version.

      Yes, I got several of these "old post" versions as I tried to post an edit. I'm glad that it's not just me. At least I know now that I shouldn't try to edit a previous message, but just post a new message instead.

      If you're getting an error message, maybe that means things are changing as someone's working on the problem. 😉

      Yes, I got this error message also, in between the "old posts".

      TOC boxes like examples?

      By the way, about the Page Contents box, to make it even more like your example boxes, you can also put a horizontal rule (three hyphens are the wiki syntax) on a line between the box title and the maketoc tag. — Gary


      Gary, I tried to make this TOC with a line under the "Page Contents" title. The only way I could get it to put a line under the title is when the box went the full width of the page. I tried a number of different ways and couldn't get the line under the title in the small TOC box. I'm Using Tiki 1.85, would that make a difference? Here is a sample of the 3 ways I understood how to make a TOC here:http://www.carrscorner.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Create+TOC

      1. . The top TOC, with no line around, with a grey background.
      2. . The Second TOC, with a line around, in a light background. (Like the one at the top right of this message.
      3. . The Third TOC, with a line around and a line under the "Page Contents" title. (I couldn't figure out how to make this one small like the other two above it on my above mentioned website. An example of this is also show directly under here.) Any ideas?


      This is and example of the Third TOC example:

      Upgrade or Wait?

      I currently am using Tiki 1.85. I have been trying to decide whether or not to upgrade to tiki 1.90. I have been talking with one of my friends (that I'm helping to set up a second Tiki website) about whether to upgrade or wait until a more stable release. I think that knowing about this inability to edit a previous message helps me to know that I should just wait for a more stable release.

      Expand Edit-Window Problem

      Another feature that needs fixing is the "expand editing window" in the wiki section of Tiki 1.90. Whenever I try to make the editing window larger, the buttons don't work. I hope both of these gets fixed in the newer versions.

      Thanks for all of your help. It is greatly appreaciated!

      Best Wishes,
      Stephen
