Sorry for delay spotting this! Will ask tech tomorrow. Anyone else having/has had this problem?

Littlefish · 16/02/2009 20:10

I'm not having this problem, but I still can't customise at all. It just doesn't save. And yes, I've tried refreshing after I've saved, but it still doesn't work.

I also get some messages not wrapping round the adverts so I get a big white space (or sometimes blue space).

Littlefish · 16/02/2009 20:11

In fact it's doing it on cocolepew's second message above.

We've tested the preview/posting in mumsnet classic and new and it seems to be working. Anyone still having this problem. Littlefish, sorry you're still having problems. Which computer/browswer etc are you using? Could you email us some screenshots of what's happening eg messages not wrapping round ads. Thanks

It does that with me too but not all the time. Sometimes i can preview fine, other times I click on preview and it goes straight to post!

can I check, just so we can eliminate possibilities, are you definitely using the 'preview' and 'post' buttons ie not typing and then hitting return?

Saltire · 17/02/2009 10:56

. Yes I am definately pressing Preview. I don't post then press return anyway, I always post then press post.

Far too many Posts in that sentence

ok thanks. NikitaTech is investigating

I'm using XP with explorer.

I'd be delighted to send you a screen shot - how do I do it?

Funnily enough - this thread is now fine with the wrapping thing. However, it happens on quite a few others, so if you could tell me how to do a screen shot, I'll send you one.

There should be a print screen button on your keyboard (usually top right somewhere) and for any mac users who don't know it's apple + shift + 4

Me - just started another thread about it. Sorry. Didn't see this one.

It's only when starting a thread, not when adding to an existing thread. I press preview and it posts.
