Title: Punctuation changing in posts?
Post by: Timmy T on March 01, 2021, 09:16:37 pm

Does anyone else have issues with punctuation and formatting when posting? I seem to get a question mark in a post when I have used an apostrophe in composition!

Am I being a techno biff (not uncommon) or is there something else?

Question mark also appears instead of pound sterling designator.  (I wonder how this post will look when I add the designator ? and press the button  :) )

Yep,  a pound sign ends up as a question mark.

Ah, I get a question mark correctly but for a pound I need the write GBP or I get another q.m.


Let's try a dollar $.........  :rant:

Sorry! Looking into this now, it's related to the major upgrade last week.

This is fixed now, apologies for the issue.

Sorry I can't do anything to fix affected posts, but any new posts will preserve punctuation and symbols correctly.
