You then punch EDIT on the post. You make your changes and then the PUNCHES to do are then, among them EDIT. What are you supposed to take that as? EDIT, meaning I want to get back into that post to make further changes? Or EDIT to mean that I am through with the corrections and want to make these EDIT corrections that I made. Why not do something easy with the program, and lable the PUNCH BOX "Post Edit Changes" or sumpin like that so that you really know what you are doing? Would that be too easy a change to ask for?

I'm fine with the status quo, but if you're a board admin, you can change what this button says. Hit the Admin link in the navigation bar. In the Community Settings box, follow the Edit Labels link. Check the box at the top that says "Use Custom Labels." Scroll down to the Post Forms box (second group of items from the top). Next to "Edit", type in whatever you want the button to say instead. Hit the Submit button at the bottom of the page. (Note that there's also an "Edit" in the Buttons and Dropdowns box just above the Post Forms box. That "edit' refers to the edit link within the post, not the button to submit the edit.)

Posts: 2173 30-Dec-08 11:28 AM munificent member	Chris, I don't think Nacho is talking about being accidentally being logged out. If a reply button is available, the post editor pops up, and a member is prompted to log in upon hitting the post button, contents of the message shouldn't be lost.

Posts: 2173 30-Dec-08 9:55 PM munificent member	Thanks for the clarification, Chris. This is stuff I'm not too familiar with. Unless I'm browsing under someone else's (OS-level) account, I almost always try to stay logged in and give board owners the benefit of my Yuku Supporter. If it isn't already, the Quick Reply situation should definitely be bugged up. There's no way that something that user unfriendly would be part of the system by design. One fix or the other would work... Better solution: Quick Reply should retain the message while intercepting a member to get him/her logged in. OK solution: Quick Reply should be unavailable to logged out users.

ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 13280 31-Dec-08 12:41 AM Yuku Help	I was thinking about your solution #2 there. It should not be available to logged out users.

Posts: 4 17-Jan-09 8:42 PM	>> Hello Nacho, Please see this topic for help with staying logged in: http://gethelp.yuku.com/topic/2884 Slowness, please let us know what board(s) you experienced it at and what time of day if possible. << Standard ezboard/yuku help response. Please .. Please .. Please .. have your programmers program up a script that can notify you when a board goes DOG, and you won't have to keep asking that question. BTW, how many times have you asked that question, only to find an answer, and then when you finally get back to it, it is working OK as far as you are concerned and go on about your business? Woudn't it be much easier if your programmers could write a script to notify you when a board when DOG, and you could check it out right then and not have to worry about subjective posts like this? The question that I had that you are trying to respond to was not about trying to stay logged in .. that is not the issue .. it was about being logged out and trying to make a post. Try it sometime.

If a reply button is available, the post editor pops up, and a member is prompted to log in upon hitting the post button, contents of the message shouldn't be lost. Exactly .. one of the issues I mentioned. This happens when you are voluntarily logged out, and trying to make a post, but responding to the ezboard/yuku question AFTER YOU HAVE WRITTEN your post, that you need to log in first.

Chris W962. That is how I see it. Funny that you and other yuku people have not corrected that even yet. It's been a problem ever since yuku started. Along with that "edit" problem. I posted this same stuff (less the slowness problem) over a year ago. Last Edited By: Nacho 17-Jan-09 8:56 PM. Edited 2 times.

In safari the back button works fine, so if I am logged out and type a reply in the Quick Reply box, I can use my back button after I've been prompted to log in to return to the topic - and my typed reply is STILL THERE. In Firefox, the back button does not work (this has been a documented bug for a long time) and so I cannot return to my typed in relply, it's lost. This is also the case with the flood check warning. I get this all the time now, and if I am posting in Safari using the Quick Reply box I can just click back and wait, then try again. In Firefox my post is lost.

This happened me on a board just yesterday. I let the screen sit for a minute and hit 'refresh' rather than 'back', and the post went through. I then tested it using the normal reply rather than the quick reply box and that worked too. I'm using Firefox3.0.5.

This doesn't excuse the bug (which extends far beyond losing replies), but if one hits Preview early and often during the process of posting, s/he can hit the back button and return to the most recently previewed version of the message.
