Can't edit posts?

College Confidential Community

Hit the gear on my posts, then “edit”, and I don’t get the option to edit, just this random line of text…

I just saw that, too. On my iPhone.

I was on an Android tablet, then went to a laptop and same thing on both.

As an added note, when I post something I can’t see it at the end of the thread right after hitting post. It is like Indid not post at all. But if I go to another page, then go back, I can see it. Then if try to edit, get the garbage string in the edit box.

Ack, @intparent I just posted a thread about that before reading this.

6

On my laptop. Can’t edit and can’t save drafts.

@CCadmin_Sorin, @Lenitus, can you look into this?

Confirmed with a post on another thread- gibberish here.

Same issue too…

Thanks for reporting, guys! I’ve informed the vendor and asked them to look into this asap. I’ll keep you posted.

FYI - it happens to me, too. I just had to refresh to be able to see my post.

And if you try to edit it after refreshing, you will likely get the gibberish string. I saw the gibberish string when I sent a PM yesterday, too. Right after I hit send, I could see it where the text I had typed should be. On an iPhone.

I know, @intparent. It’s exactly what happened to me, too. I’m waiting for the vendor to get back with some details. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks!

UPDATE: I got news from the tech team that this should be fixed now. Thank you all for your help in identifying and solving this problem!

It’s fixed! Weird…why did it happen?
