The "quote" button is not always working. Anyone else having the same problem?

Hi Jon,

Yes, everybody's having that problem. It's a 'known issue' for which I unfortunately lack time (and interest...) to fix it.

The board software is slightly outdated and not supported anymore. So EMPortal should really move on to something a little bit more modern. However, it's more than just installing a new package... There's some history that needs to be transferred/converted too. Not a task to do an a Sunday afternoon.

I may do it. Some day. Until then, there's not much I can do about it.

This particular thing is getting irritating. Not easy replying to a post when you can't quote it...

Yes, I know. Did you read my reply above? For the last 4 years I've been working 52 weeks a year, 40+ hours a week. Which leaves very little time to dive into this stuff. Thanks for your understanding. Oh, and if you know how to fix it, feel free to share it with us. ;-) Hint: it has to do with unexpected behaviour of the preg_replace function under php5.

Have a good day and keep on smilin' :-)

No need for an answer like that. I am not telling you to fix it right away. I am just posting a comment about a thing that is not working. On the helpdesk, with the subtitle "any technical questions, please send them in". OK?

If I knew how fo fix it, I would have said it.

For me it happens randomly and I copy one of my previous quoted post replacing the text.
The process helps sometimes composing a more rational reply :D
