    Default Space bar issues

    A few times in the past I know a few members have had issues where the space bar didn't work, or that hitting the enter key didn't drop them to a new line. Part of the resolution had to do with hitting the a/A key in the interface box to help (Temp resolution).

    Anyone recall having similar issue, and what they did to resolve?

    testing

    Cool, it works again!

    I did the settings change, saved, then changed back to Enhanced like you recommended - problem solved!

    That was a weird little glitch.

    err, I mean...

    Mine doesn't work if I'm typing the last character of the post. To fix it I need to put another line below the sentence I'm typing by hitting the 'enter' key before I start or putting an extra period at the end.

    You rock! I just posted this in our staff section as a test, and one of the guys from VB said to do the same for now. You using Chrome I assume?

    Not sure there is a resolution for sure, I will keep peeking around, but read this:

    Weird that this just started for a few folks, did Chrome just do an update?

    For those affected - go get an update:

    ​​​I heard that the next Chrome update fixes this issue. I have not confirmed this but you may want to check it out.

    Hi all, the latest update to Chrome (11/6) corrects this issue. I have updated three computers and tested it and it seems to be 100% fixed. I am using 64-bit Chrome.
    Version 54.0.2840.87 m

    Yes, Chrome. I don't know about updates but it's been for a couple of weeks I'd guess. It oddly doesn't do it on a new post such as this but will when I quote another post.

    It also did it when I've played WGT in the past but I haven't played there in ages and I didn't find a work around other than using periods.

    Yup, that thread weirdly enough states it only happens when quoting as well.

    My glitch only seemed to happen when I was replying to PM's, and occasionally when trying
    to quote and reply to a post. With the quote and reply,I had to go back then try again.
    With the PM's, all I could do was use a hyphen or period between words.

    @jimnyc...Can You 'STICKEY' this thread in case others have a similar problem?
    There seem to be some good solutions being offered in it.

    I am definitely not as techie as some of you folks!

    I was experimenting with Chrome a couple of weeks ago and noticed that problem when I tried to post. I stopped using Chrome and still use Firefox.


    To change topic, I can't update my profile picture anymore. I can upload or reference one, but it just won't show up on my posts. Don't know if that's something that's been reported.

    Also try closing a/A that shows up on the bar when you open up a window to type a post. Then close the window and reopen.

    It's 200k or smaller, and 200x200 or smaller? Which browser are you using? Can you send me the photo or link me to it?
