XF 2.2 Toggle BB Code User Preferences

[MattW]

XF 2.1 - Toggle bbCode should reset on post or cancel

If the toggle bbCode is turned to text mode, the editor remains in text mode for that user. The behavior in xF1.5 was to clear the text edit state and our users find this behavior very confusing. I cannot find a control to change this behavior.

So a bug report has been raised on one of the sites I help with, where people are saying the BB code editor is disabled. I've pointed them to where they should re-enable it with the square brackets, and that they must have disabled it at some point. They are stating that they haven't actually disabled it themselves.

So with the above referenced post from Mike, how is this preference saved per device? I've looked in the access logs, and I can see where the POST request is made either enabling or swapping back to HTML



Just looking for some suggestions on what look for if possible to try and figure if it is indeed a bug, or they are actually performing the switch in their device / browser.

Thanks,

If you're seeing those requests, then that should indicate they're toggling it -- I don't believe we ever call that programmatically.

But it's stored via local storage on the client, so you won't have any server-side access to ti.

That's great, thanks for confirming Mike

@Mike - they are still reporting this happening:

I don't see that user swapping to the BB code editor from the access logs.
