My Reply Posts Keep Disappearing

Post by lawman »

I have tried 4 times now to post a reply to OldFather in the Piano 3 Forum. Twice I tried logging in before typing my reply (pressing "Post" disappeared my text), then logging in after typing my text (same result when I pressed "Post"), then logging in, typing my reply, then pressing "Preview" (text disappeared - I've seen a message that said my reply had been saved, but I can't figure out where it is or how to access it to try again). What am I doing wrong, or how can I fix this? Thanks in advance.

Do you have particularly aggressive anti-ad plugins running that might be blocking the submit scripts?

Hm... I do not know what it could be. Have you tried posting using the Full Editor button?
Edit: I just posted a test (posted OK in firefox) and deleted it.
What browser are you using? As analogika asked, do you have any "no script" plugins that you need to allow this site?
Strange think is that you have been able to post in this thread.

I agree that it's odd that I successfully posted on this thread. I don't any any plug-ins that I know of - I'm not that sophisticated. Could there be a limit on length?

Ah, that makes sense.

Most forums have a post character limit set at 0.5 Hemingway — the equivalent of 150 milliJoyce.
