Sometimes it does not frame the persons i am quoting and I only see the [/quote] code

In here, it seems to work. Let me know if you have a specific case that I can reproduce.

I've noticed this is a few posts (last thread I saw it in was the Ferrari engine thread). A dangling [/quote] and no highlighting.

Here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=21958&start=4830#p881927

Izzy and PZ's reply at least but this is not isolated to this these posts.

I don't recall the previous behaviour, but if you try and quote someone who previously broke a quote, or if I voluntarily happen to write a closing quote tag in my message [/quote] for fun, then the forum no longer escapes dangling quote tags when quoting.

So a broken quote becomes contagious :wink:

Isn't this how it should be?

Anyway, I don't know how it used to be. I never quoted bad quotes, and usually fixed them for you through my moderation powers :)

Tbh this forum layout isn't great on mobile devices, when you go to submit a post it sometimes takes a few clicks for it to register.
