I don't know whether this is a bug, something to do with size of the linked file, or that a site (often giphy.com) is providing an awful lot of bad links when I use "copy image location" and link to it, but I'm getting an awful lot of indications that posting a gif failed even though it appeared to work before posting. You know, that picture with the red X through it. Ditto for if I view the post in preview.

But then if I edit the post, I can suddenly see the gif again. Like these two Monty Python gifs:

It's the file size, too big.
 
Maybe I missed this, but can we no longer delete PMs?

I assume there’s no cap on PM boxes anymore?
PM's are now called conversations and you can remove yourself from them. And no, there is no cap, at least not presently.
 
Sorry to bug you. A question about sigs.
My attempts to change it failed. I tried 1 sentence, but it keeps telling me that I have exceeded the max by 3 lines. Thought it might be the size, tried going down to font size 1, but it is stuck at 9. I am currently set on size 15.

The limits are 200 characters and 3 lines. Does your one sentence exceed 200 characters?
 
When I do a paste of copied text, the forum software places a space at the beginning and the end of the text. It is incredibly annoying and pointless, since there is not supposed to be a space between a quotation mark and the word that comes next.

" This isn't how it's supposed to look. "

"It needs to look like this."

And I have to putz around to make it right every time.

Can this obvious bug be fixed?

This isn't a bug, this is a formatting setting. I'll look into it.
 
When I reviewed a post on my iPhone, it had an ad in it.
Who got paid? You guys or some digital grifter in Fresno? .

Might not be a forum bug. Are you double clicking on what you are copying? That will a lot of times put extra spaces in for me, regardless of site or program.
 
I have been getting notifications from the future for a couple of days now, not sure if this is intended behaviour. I'll get a new notification, and when I click my notifications, it will sometimes say "so and so" (in a moment.) Until the post shows past tense not future tense in my notifications, if I click on it, it takes me to where the post would be, but it won't be there for a few seconds to a couple of minutes.

This time I saw a full two minutes into the future, just wanted to make staff aware so we don't accidentally destroy the spacetime continuum.

That's awesome! I'm betting the time on your device is at least 2 minutes slower than the time on the server.

I haven't been able to locate a fix for this. It's annoying I know.

Sorry

I thought you had fixed it, actually, since I'd pasted some text earlier today that didn't get spaced.

I just saw this myself a couple of minutes ago on my own notifications, it's hilarious!

The selection bar at the top of my posting space is blurred, so I can't select Italics, Underline, etc. It's happened before. Please help.

Best,

This sounds like a browser issue, not an issue with xF software. We haven't made any changes to the software since it was installed on the server.
