Tried to post using the multi-quote function today - didn't worked. 

 

Posted a normal sentence - did work. Tried to add the quote via copy+paste, didn't worked either.

Did the multi-quote not appear in the reply box? If that was the problem, you have deactivate and then reactivate the BBCode switch (top left icon in the reply box) and it should magically appear.

It did actually. But when I hit "post" it just didn't posted (similiar to the already known issue with quotes and likes). No post at all.

Yup, sometimes pasting a quote doesn't appear on the first attempt and doing it again results in a double paste (despite only one appearing in the text box). Similarly, using "more reply options" and trying a preview doesn't work until you try it again. As Dos says, switching to bbcode mode gets around this but that can be annoying/daunting (delete as appropriate).

 

For what it's worth, the Admins are aware of the problem as it's one for the few glitches we've has recently.

I know, but that's not my issue in that case - I just couldn't post at all^^

 

Normally, if I quote manually (so not using the function), what you said happens - I just quote (don't see it), and hit post, everything's fine. But today I used the normal multiquote button and it added them, I could write my responds but it just didn't allowed me to post ^^

Weird. We'll let the Admins know and let them take it from here.

Can you provide a bit more information please, such as the browser you're using (useful link)? The more information you provide the easier finding the cause/solution will be. When you say it didn't allow you to post what happened exactly? Did you create your post normally and when you clicked "Post" nothing happened for example?

browser you're using

I'm using Chrome =)

Yep

 

I used multiquote, wrote my replays and hit "post" - but nothing happened. Tried it three times, after that I tried to post without any quotes - this worked. I than tried to go to edit and multiquote/answer there again - and this also didn't worked (I just couldn't get it posted, like with the current likes issue, but worse). Really weird lol^^

[Chaplain Dosjetka]

Which version of Chrome? Latest?

Have you tried clearing your browser cache and trying again?

[WarriorFish]

Did you get the normal process, where the post buttons disappear and you get the replacement text "Saving post..." message?

 

Quick short cut to a hard refresh (bypassing cache) is Ctrl + F5 / Ctrl + R, if you don't know already.

I couldn't post at all in this  thread just a second ago. I made a post, failed to post, lost it, made a new post that went through, tried to edit it, lost my edit, tried to make a new post instead, and couldn't get that to work

 

The little "saving" dots appeared at the top of the screen, but the post didn't actually get saved.

 

Eidt: No quotes or anything, though both times it failed I had used the Image button to inset an image via its URL.

This actually sounds pretty much the same as my issue (but without quotes, lol). Ah, the awesome world of bugs

The "saving dots" at the top of the screen signals that the data has been sent, and goes when it gets the "ok" - in the same way as mentioned previously in the other bug report. The difference would be that the error appears to come sooner, before the data is inserted into the database.

 

It appears it may be related to the BBCode, or rather the expression engine that processes them so I'll pass that on. Thanks for the help, if you have any further information to post please update this topic

Just testing.

[Montford981]

I have discovered I'm having the same issue regarding quotes, as well as posting images. I'm using Explorer as my browser.

[Kurgan the Lurker]

I am on PC with the most up to date version of Chrome and I am still not able to recreate the multi-quote issue. 

[Montford981]

I gave it  shot using Firefox. The quote box appeared and I thought everything was going to work, but when I clicked 'Post' the Internet ate it. (My post seems to have vanished and is nowhere to be found)

[GreyRavenC]

50% of my edits don't go through either. The dots appear and dissappear, but when I reload the page the update didn't get through.

[Montford981]

Microsoft Edge seems to allow me to fully posts with quotes.
