    Question Editing posts issue

    Hi, I have noticed that for quite a while I'm unable to edit posts - you used to simply click on 'Edit Post' and then edited it and 'Saved' it - but now getting no 'Save' at all!!
    Anyone else?

    I've noticed that I have to refresh the page, or navigate away, then back to the thread, to get the edit function to save the newly amended data.

    PS: No, even after leaving original post and attempting edit/save still no joy Win 10 Google browser!
    Nogo after refresh either - will try Firefox as Win 10 also supports that too!
    Watch this space!

    Well, that IS odd, as Firefox does indeed have 'save' option within Edit function - but I KNOW this hasn't ALWAYS been the case and that I always USED to edit/save outside Firefox ok!

    True mate, but not all of us use Firefox - by choice?

    not a forum issue though , which computers and which operating systems and which browsers you all use is your problem, not ours

    Yes, I hear what you say, but it's only started to happen on 'basic' Google this past few months- on both Win 7 and Win 10! It's always been fine in the past!
    So to me, that means that whatever is causing it may be peculiar to Pimps tech system 'set-up'!

    Only for we 'simple' people who choose to use plain common or garden IE on Win 7 and Win 10 mate with Google, so if you say so, then so be it mate!!

    you have the option to remove the offending updates till it works again
    or use firefox

    if you don't make a typo when posting you would not need to edit

    Ech has told you its not a forum problem ,others using the same o/s and search engine say its working ok, im sure HDA5 would have commented if there was a known issue .

    you cant get more simple/common or plain the system im using , and working fine.

    it must be an update problem
    do a suggested and remove all updates and not them and find the 1
    that is caulsing the problem

    or use another web browser


    simples
