kevin Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 There is a bug in the forum software, when quoting someone with an apostrophe in their name like They'reOutTaGetMe, the quoting systems fails to work properlyFor example, it would set it as this in the name = block of the quote tag:'They'reOutTaGetMe' The apostrophe in They're gets read as the closing apostrophe, breaking the correct way quoting should work.

Just dont know how they can fix that Quote
kevin Posted December 8, 2009 Author Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) You'd have to edit the php file (i'm assuming it is php) that handles quoting. It really isn't terribly difficult to find, but to fix idk. Maybe remove apostrophes in the name at the time of quoting?testtesting Edited December 8, 2009 by kevin Quote
Jumpin' Jack Flash Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Yeah, I've noticed this too. Try quoting my username My name is NOT Jumpin Quote

Guest floyd the barber Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 This is exactly why this forum upgrade stinks. Quote

eRomano Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Small Forum software glitch.The old Forum software had glitchez of it's own.I'll submit it so they can fix it in the next update.Thanks for taking the time to report the bug. Quote
highvoltage Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Funny. For some reason my \\\' are becoming /.It did it again! I can\'t even post them.That's what happens when former banned members use proxies so they can keep posting. Quote
Ms. Dewitt Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) If you think I am a banned member, why not simply have your master re-ban me? Edited December 8, 2009 by Ms. Dewitt Quote
highvoltage Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 If you think I am a banned member, why not simply have your master re-ban me?Because I don't really care enough to bother? If you're going to post with a proxy, then be smart about it and don't draw attention to it - jeez. Quote
kevin Posted December 9, 2009 Author Posted December 9, 2009 Hey she/he said "its because im posting from work," before they edited it. JSYK oh b& ll Quote
Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) This again.So what was the problem? Isn't it possible to quote someone with an " ' " in the name?Edit: Yes, I see what the problem is. Only Jumpin on Jumpin' Jack Flash's name. Edited September 23, 2010 by Satanisk_Slakt Quote
Guest gunns5 Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 these bugs are totally unacceptable, I demand a full audit of this forum by the fbi, csi, cia and irs. Quote
