It's been a couple of days that I am stuck with plaintext while posting on the forum with my iPad.

Don't know if this happens also on other OS's.

 

Also, the first empty line of text used to separate the quoted message from the reply is removed when editing the reply.

I think it has always been doing that on Mac OS and Linux, but only when you deleted the last part of the quoted text.

Uhm.. weird. I am almost sure it behaved differently on iOS till a couple days ago. Haven't yet tried on OS X.

I just edited this message on my iPad, and the spacing from your quoted test was removed in the editor window I am using right now.

 

Did you guys update the forum software recently ?

Are you running iOS 9.3?  If so, there have been many reports about its buggy behaviour so perhaps that's a contributing factor.

Yes I am on 9.3, however I am pretty much sure it is a forum software bug.

If the User-Agent field is spoofed to fake a non-mobile browser, I get the fully working HTML editor on my iPad.

 

Please fix this.

You are right, the problem is on our side.

 

We had this problem before and fixed it.

Two days ago I ran an update and must have overwritten the fix.

 

Will try to find the correct solution again, may take some days.

Thanks Andreas, I am testing with an iPad Pro and got the HTML editor running fine.

I really appreciate the quick fix.
