Bolding failures on app

6 replies

Graphista · 01/11/2020 19:40

Noticed this happening more, checked and updated app but it's still happening

When I write a post if use the bolding option more than approx 3 times it cancels them all when it actually posts - but when I look at the writing window the quotes are there showing in bold

Very annoying as it means I feel I have to limit how many times I quote people or how long a post is or have to use both * and " to ensure the post is clear

Very irritating and confusing for readers

I don't want to keep duplicating posts with the bolding corrected in multiple posts as that's very messy and makes it look like I'm being overbearing!

What's going on? Anyone having similar issues on site?

Hi OP

Can we just ask - is it the IOS or android app you're using?

Graphista · 02/11/2020 20:46

iOS - i did say

Also since I updated it's very jumpy and won't refresh if I "pull down" I have to go back to whichever list of threads I'm working from then back onto the specific thread to refresh or occasionally even have to force close the app

Hi @Graphista thanks for the report. Please can you try deleting and reinstalling and let us know if you still have problems? Flowers

Hey @Graphista - sorry for the delay, I've managed to find and fix this bug. You should have bold and other formatting working by the end of the week when Apple approve the fix.

Let us know if you still have issues!
