Exclamation "Edit Post" Has Nothing In It!

Hi, when I go to edit my posts, it does not show my original post at all! It just gives me an empty field...

Please fix this, I wanted to update my car journal and don't want to loose what I have already had in my first post.



Edit: Nvm, it seems like it didn't recognize the bulletpoint system and just decided not to show anything at all... w/e, I changed them to dashes instead.

I'm running into this more and more lately. It's sporadic, but really frustrating. Hope it's just a glitch that can be easily fixed @Hachiroku @FT-MH

I get this on some posts as well.

the 86CUP rules thread is one of them... but it started working again. I can't readily duplicate it.

I've also run into this a few times after clicking "Edit", it also happens when I "Go Advanced". I'm not sure if it's due to specific browsers or browser versions (I use 3-4 different machines throughout the week and can't remember which ones have been affected. I'm pretty sure I use Firefox on all of them.

This is happening to me in the below thread. I've tested on two different computers using, IE, Firefox and Chrome, and on all when I click Edit or Advanced edit the content window is blank.

This happened to me, turns out the cause was that I had clicked on a "multi quote" button (blue button with " on it). I had to find the thread where I had done it (the button turns red when you've clicked it) and click it again to fix it.

When it happened to me I couldn't edit or quote any posts.

You can probably fix it by just clearing your cookies (or at least the one for this site), but I didn't try that.

I found out my problem some time ago; but this problem may be affected by more than one cause... But try this:

I know vBulletin doesn't like special characters, try taking those out and it should work; if your problem was like mine.

Hm... It seems like I'm having the same problem once again... And this time it has nothing to do with special characters or bullet points.

To bring this back from the dead, and it is relevant:

I'm having a very similar issue where not only am I unable to edit any of my posts, but attempting to directly quote or multi-quote a member's posts results in an empty field.

Any idea as to what is going on? It's happened to me twice, and it seems to happen whenever it wants to.

Go back several pages on random thought posts. Iirc Sar's post might answer your question.

Keyword "might"

I've said it many times before in several threads, and I'll repeat myself in here since this seems dedicated to the problem.

Posts with "special" characters such as ° and ø can neither be edited nor quoted.

This is obviously an encoding problem, and should be an easy fix for the guys with the source code.
I have also stated that such problems were common before UTF-8 came along more than 20 years ago, but these days any web software should take any language and character in stride.

I quoted him just fine!

EDIT: And then I edited the quoted post with the special characters to add this! Y'all just don't know how to computer.

EDITEDIT: FYI, I'm using Chrome version 47.0.2526.106m on Windows 7 64-bit.

I am just going to blame my hardware for everything I can't do! Easier that way.
