Topic: New bug in author chapter note field

We appear to have a new bug. The author chapter note field no longer formats correctly and, if you go in to edit it, the field contains visible formatting characters (e.g., <p> and </p>).

Re: New bug in author chapter note field

Those are HTML formatting codes. I did notice that, too.  Just something to do with the text field, I imagine.

Re: New bug in author chapter note field

Sol, this bug should really be fixed. It makes the author chapter note field a sloppy mess for all newly posted and edited chapters, and it makes a poor impression for new users wondering about the professionalism of the site. This should be an easy fix.

An old related bug is when a user views an inline review in x-line mode (that's probably most of us). The reply box is tiny (less than 2" by 2"), even on a large screen. I reported this about a year ago. Here, too, it affects probably everyone, should be an easy fix, and makes a poor impression.

Thanks.

In the Reply box, and all boxes, I think, there are small lines in the bottom right corner. Click and drag on those and you can re-size the box.

I agree, the default size is smallish. But you can re-size it to your convenience.

Ok, we'll take a look. Thanks for letting us know.
