Bug in the Linkshell hall

[Maril]

Heya! 

 

Sorry if this is already a known issue but, I have noticed that sometimes when I got back to edit my linkshell hall topics, the editor erases some of my spaces at seemingly random points. 

So for example if I've written "them at" in a place, it makes it looks like "themat". I don't know if it's because I tend to copy the text in from a document or what, but it's starting to get on my nerves a bit because it takes time to sit and find and fix  It's exclusively in the linkshell hall that I've experienced this problem. 

I wanted to also ask if there's anyone who has the same issue, just to root out the possibility of it being something on my end. I use google chrome as my primary browser, but I have no idea if that's got anything to do with it.

I have the issue too. It's any forum though. So long as I'm  copying text from a word document  and pasting it into the text box here the formatting goes a bit wonky.

 

I've  just started combing through the post again and previewing before submitting.

I do believe the problem is in one of the text editors and has to do with pasting text. I'll admit, I don't copy-paste much, so I haven't had much of an opportunity to suss out the problem. I would be curious to know what browser and editor people who have this problem are using. Your current editor selection can be viewed from the User CP->Edit Options page, under "Which BBCode editor to show on post pages".

Mine is set to "MyCode Editor" 

 

I tend to always write in a document/google docs first and then put it onto what-ever-site it goes to, because I have a real habit of accidentally closing my tabs/browser and other such related bad luck. This is the only site that I'm noticing the issue I described.

So, let me dig a little deeper, since I'm having trouble replicating this.

 

Does it work properly in Internet Explorer or Firefox?

 

Does it only happen when you copy-paste from some sources -- for instance, if you type it up in Notepad, then copy-paste it, does it work, but not when you copy-paste from Google Docs or Word?

 

What's your OS?

 

Anyone else who's having this problem, feel free to chime in, too!

Maybe one out of every ten posts I do here, I'll have this happen to me. Usually for me, though, it's an entire spacing break between paragraphs; only occasionally is it between words.

 

It will happen to me if I'm copy/pasting from the text box here while I'm typing a long post and switching paragraphs around, or if my connection is acting like it's gone down just after I hit the post button and I'm scrambling to copy my text before it disappears into nothingness. I have also noticed after I've hit 'preview post' a few times, it'll start cropping up.
