Hi folks,
On the morning September 8th we worked with our vendor and deployed a change to this site that we hoped would fix some of the 'flagged as spam' issues many of your were experiencing. Unfortunately, our efforts did not adequately fix things as intended and created some new bugs.
Current issues are as follows:
- Posts with @mentions will get rejected
- Adding an image and then typing more content will duplicate the image and your typed content will disappear
- Other types of pasted content is rejected
- Headings are missing in the format dropdown for those that have the permissions to create articles
Here is what is being done:
- @mentions have been disabled until the issue is resolved
- A current workaround for #2 is to hit return/enter twice, then go back to the top line to insert an image.
- The dev team has a fix that addresses issues 1#, #2, and #4 that we are planning to release later today
- We will spend more time addressing #3 as there are a few edge-cases with pasted content that we need to spend more time testing. Ideally, all users will be able to write, and copy/paste anything from other websites and not have to worry about a post getting rejected due to some odd HTML markup that the backend system doesn't like.
We'll continue to post updates here. Thanks for your patience. And to those that I was able to meet at Summit - thank you for showing me some of these issues in person. We're excited to get our editor in better shape and build cool new features for you!
