I've been doing some more testing (Kind of had to considering what I do on FSE requires me to use BB code) and I've also been thinking about the problems. I think the problem lies in an error with the BB code. Maybe the new update changed the way or priority of how BB code was read? Like (Center - Times new Roman - size 12 - B) in that order before the update worked, but now the update changed it so it doesn't work unless it's in, say, reverse order? Drafts worked for me when I didn't use any BB code (besides spoilers), and using BB code also kills regular posts and PMs, so it's more than likely a BB code problem... or something. I don't really know  :-[ Perhaps rolling back to before whatever was updated would fix?

Major Edit: PM-ing is also broken in a major way. I was PMing myself a message for the Forum Game I'm running. I had the tab open and was (and still am) constantly editing it. I had to PM DoctorWarband something that I needed him to do, so I opened a separate tab and PM'd him. I typed the message and hit preview to make sure it worked. The message worked but the text in the PM I was sending to DoctorWarband changed to the text of the other Tab I had open.  :-[ I did not tamper with it in any way, I merely hit preview. What is being previewed is my PM to DoctorWarband, ie what I typed in that PM. What appears in the actual typing box is the text for my other PM. I have permission from DoctorWarband to post the PM to him, I can post screenshot as well if needed or you can ask him.

Why is FSE breaking?  :-\

I don't know, I have no idea. All I can say that it might have happened after our server crashed and we had to reboot the forums from an old backup... But I don't exactly remember when that was. It might fit in the timeframe though.
I re-added the drafts mod for now, as it does not seem to be the one that is breaking everything.

Ive tested some other mods, deinstalled, installed them all without any real success. We could roll back to an old forum software version, but that might allow hackers to get in. Which is not very nice, and I would like not to consider doing that.

After spending way too much time on this I fixed it.

Turned out in the .12 Security update that prevents people from injecting posts upon other people they added some really restrictive posting code.

I digged deep in the .12 patch and found the code they added and modified the PHP so it is still secure as before but at least fixes this stupid bug.


Sorry for taking so long but it took us a whole lot of time to find it.


Cheers guys!

It was probably related in the way the post code got handled by this security mess they created which was not working correctly.

Button for posting got cut?
Explain   ;)

Fixed.

We removed the spell checking package, but it did not delete itself completely.

Should be good now.

It's useless because nowadays all browsers have build in spellchecking.
