This is on the page that shows all of the threads Tom.  Not on each individual post.  Back up one level.

Okay, here we go again.  When you insert a (") quotation mark this thing is coughing up a question mark instead.  It is also using a question mark for the (') apostrephe mark at the same time.

Which in turn creates an editing nightmare if you use any of the above mentioned characters.

Test: Now is the time "For all good men to come to the aid of their county".

Let's see if single and double quotes work now.

Humm, single and double quotes worked for me. Let me test something else. Maybe it has been rectified.

Step 1 - Try using a dash as in this case and see what happens.

Preview looks fine.  Now let's Post.

Appears to me that if you create a document in a Word (or maybe other word processor document) as Krash mentioned to me that when you paste it it goes kaddywampus. But if you create it in the note space itself, it seems to work fine.  So bottom line, worse case scenario is that all posts should be created in the editing window itself rather than in a word processor and pasting them in.

Are the folks having the problem with the question marks coming up, creating their posts in a word processing software then cutting and pasting them in? If so, this is apparently the problem.

Let me know if this helps.

Don't see that on topics page, maybe because I'm looking on my phone or tablet? Tom...

Funny you should say that.  I just looked at my Android and I did not see it there until I turned my phone to Landscape mode i.e. sideways.  Try that. If that works, you may only be able to read the Forum lying down from now on.  ;D

I always read the posts in the landscape position. Since the change to the forum, the vertical position is screwed up. Not a problem since I have always used landscape for this forum. Samsung S4or S6.

Hi Gary, thanks I see it now. I was going to say something snarky, like I only read it vertically, but I won't! Tom...

So have you made a decision about reinstalling tapatalk? Or is it still up in the air? I really hope it comes back.
Some are called, some are sent, some just got up and went.
