The quote etc buttons disappeared for me a while ago.

Is this a fault or just how things are now? If it’s a fault, how do I report it?

The quote etc buttons disappeared for me a while ago.

Here for me (Android)

I had no formatting tools for posts the other day. Logged out and back in. Now I have the ‘fancy’ editor tools, but no longer have the option to switch those to the non-fancy versions like previously. Android here.

IT’s a feature of the forum being completely borked.

When i read this post it said Fazzini 7seconds… If i refresh the page it says Fazzini 7 seconds…. then in about 10 minutes, it’ll see someone else posted. When i came in there was showing as 1 reply, but 2 had replied.

I get this a LOT.

It’s not the fact that the buttons don’t work that irks slightly, it’s the lack of communication as to why and what’s being done. I can accept things go wrong and don’t work…. but ignoring it isn’t the way forward.

That’s the root cause but one thing at a time…

They work for me (today) but have been very temperamental recently

No buttons for me. I can’t even try the logging out and back in trick, ’cause that button’ s gone, too.
Pixel 6.

I’ve got buttons on Chrome desk top.

I have the buttons too.

Also Pixel 6/Chrome

And on chrome on pixel 7a.

The buttons are back.

Mine are still away on holiday.

I have fancy buttons but no option to switch to the basic editor for the last couple of days (that I’ve noticed).

Chrome on PC

Don’t think I’ve ever seen those buttons – what editor are you using? Think I’m on the basic one.

The quote thing is easy enough to type – square brackets round the word quote then paste the wording you want to quote and then square brackets round the word quote with a ‘/’ before the word quote.

I’ve not used anything else so never needed the button options.

What am I not really missing?

Yay, buttons are back.  Thanks fazzini.

Theres another thread running where I learnt that there’s an option in Preferences under your profile  to enable “fancy editor”,  which fixed it for me last night.

Not sure if that only applies to members.
