Thread: post replies

I have problems with post a reply. Example i writing a response to a topic with 100 characters, clic on post anwser then I get the message the "answer is too short, he must have at least 10 characters." Have only i this problem or have more members this? In tapatalk doing fine, but I find it frustrating that it is through the regular straightrazorplace.com site does not want to succeed.

And with a quote

I'm not sure what is up with that, kalerolf.
Could it be some kind of security setting on your end?
Have you installed any new software, like a new browser or something?
Perhaps a security update of some sorts have blocked you from replying to this site?
I don't know, but the site, as you can see, seems to work just fine...

It's most likely something on your end, so try different browser, private browsing in your current browser, if those work then clearing the browser cache/settings should fix it.
If the problem is with all browsers on your computer it's something specific to your computer - as birnando suggested antivirus software, firewall, or even your operating system.
If your phone uses your home network it's not a network problem, if not, connect it to your home network to check that.

That's pretty much how you troubleshoot it - you have to first narrow down where the problem is.

If you reply with quote, and dont type at least 10 characters after the whole quote this will happen

+1. That is to say ....... if your text is not outside of the quoted text ........ the software will read it as part of the original quoted text ....... so I.E. there is no new text to post. Make sure that your text is not within the brackets that are on either end of the quoted text ..... assuming you are replying with a quote.

Ed and JimmyHAD are correct. Happened to me and then i saw i was typing in the "quote" area.

Dave

Its bloody annoying if it happens while posting from a phone as you cant cut and paste, you have to start all over again

This is probably it! It has happened to me several times. Just be certain you start typing AFTER it says [/QUOTE] at the end of the quote you are using. Sometimes it is a few lines down!
