(1.) Ability to change text size, font, and color in posts— the "Text Style" options do not work as intended.
(2.) Fix the "Add a Line" feature in the text editor— it doesn't work as expected.
(3.) Either get rid of the feature where all users tagged in a post are notified of every edit to said post OR grant the user the option (in the Settings menu) to disable notifications on edited posts they were tagged in.
(4.) Allow for a "Compact View" mode: Shrink the size of the user icons (i.e. name & profile picture).

(5.) Allow for files e.g. Excel to be displayed normally.

(6.) Allow for greater control over line spacing... like right now. I don't want there to be so much vertical space between lines. I'd like to have the compactness of the first few lines of this post.

Do we know what the cause is behind the inconsistent vertical line spacing on forum posts? Or if there’s any way to mitigate/fix the issue?

Quick Reply uses line breaks, whereas 'Rich Text Reply' (as it sems to be called) creates a new paragraph when you press Enter. Between each paragraph, there's about an empty row's amount of space. For what it's worth, there's a list tool in 'Rich Text Reply' for, uh, lists.

I guess the Shift + Enter trick is nice. I didn't know about that myself.

There should be an option for users to turn off the “[X] user(s) agree(s).” I see nothing wrong with allowing for an “Agree,” I just personally don’t wanna see it under every post. I think that it’d make for a neat option.



WDA articles should have a corresponding forum thread. Part of the reason why this forum is dying is because lots of news articles have more comments than posts in the actual related thread. This is a forums site and should be forums-focused. Anyone can hit an upvote button or browse nested comments on any social media platform. People come here to actually read a coherent thread timeline IMO.

I don't know if this is for here but ..
There is a bug when you try to post or edit a post lately maybe in the recent 2-3 months. So you edit what you edit in the post, and when you click submit, it refreshes and nothing happens, it returns you back in the edit screen as you haven't done anything. The same goes if you try to post new comment or even a thread .. It's very annoying. Also it's not from my browser or anything like this, I tried from another device and another browser, I get the same issue. I think it has something to do with the server the site is on, since it's happening non stop for some period and then it's gone. Then after a while again it comes back up. And when this happens it's for like 20 or 30 minutes. After that it fixes itself up, but after some time if you try to again post or edit something it's again there.

These "posts". How many have images involved? Can any regular post/edit post cause the problem - or is it only ones that have images involved/attached?

I've encountered this on both, posts without images (even creating new thread without images), and posts with images too.
