  1. Can't/wont fix. I explained to milk directly privately but I'll break it down here too.

     

    The bug mentioned is in regards to a feature of CKEditor, the library that our forum software uses for its rich content editor. It will periodically back-up the contents of the field so that in the event of an accidental page navigation, an internet outage, or a power outage, the contents are not likely to be lost. The side effect is that sometimes that content is not cleared properly.

     

    Fixing this would require modifications to CKEditor's source code, which could result in the feature being broken and resulting in content being lost prior to being posted - potentially costing people to lose quite a lot of work in preparing a longer topic. The fix would then need to be re-applied with every software update to the forums.

     

    So yes - while this is inconvenient, it's not something that'll be fixed as it's a minor side-effect of a crucial forums feature that prevents hours of content work from being lost.

    how did u get to bug tracker? help > trackers > bug tracker?

    it seems like u accessed the wrong page, the right one is https://chaoticunited.net/forums/trackers/bug-tracker/ - same with suggestions

     

    He was accessing it via the subforum links. Theres links to both as subforums under Suggestions & Feedback and Support respectively.

     

    The Bug Tracker link was fixed earlier hence why it worked later, the Suggestions Tracker link was fixed just now.
