WYSIWYG previews still a problem …

The gibberish in my subject is Erdoğan of Turkey. It shows up correctly in the preview, but fails in the final form. The version I pasted from the message body shows up correctly.

Other peeves are circular avatars that show up square in composition.

Yet another is the lack of "Member since …" in composition. I wanted to comment on how long someone had been a member, but lost it in the reply.
These were all fixed, but I spotted another problem today. Sometimes a non-OP will get the the dark shading in the reply composition. It goes away when you return to the thread.

Re: WYSIWYG previews still a problem per Erdoğan Erdoğan

WYSIWYG editors are a pain in the butt. I designed one for my site and it's still problematic. There are too many encodings and case specific things to worry about, and it's even worse when browsers choose to handle contenteditable specifications in their own unique way.

I see we both joined in March 2017. Back then, nits like mine were taken seriously. Now, not much at all.

We'll try to do better. There is a fairly long to-do list that needs to be worked through.

Great, but now the Erdoğan bug is reversed! It fails in the [Reply To] and goes thru in the final post.

Thanks for the support. Now the reply-to subject appears correctly.

The bigger a site gets, the more overwhelming things can get, what with dependencies and feature integration and all that. To fix one thing, you need to break something else, then fix that before you can fix the initial problem, etc. I get it.

I see the site has solidified itself and it doesn't appear that much will change on here anymore.

@support seems to be legit. How else would he be user #2!
