    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.

    I just started using Chrome myself and also have/had the issue. Here's a temporary workaround and you won't have to worry anymore.

    Go to "Settings" at the top right of the board. Then scroll down on the left to "General Settings". On that screen, scroll down to the last set of options. Dollars to donuts, since it's default, the interface is set to "enhanced" - change this to "Standard" editor. "Save Changes" at the bottom.

    You will see a visual difference when writing your posts. You will see the "code" instead of images, for example. But don't worry, it will be perfect once you make your post.

    MANY are asking about this on Chrome/Vbulletin forums, so hopefully a fix will come out.

    I just checked my browser version for the hell of it, and I noticed mine is later than yours, so you need to update:

    Version 55.0.2883.87 m (64-bit)

    Google Chrome is up to date.


    Additionally, the good news is that I just set my settings back to enhanced, came here and hit "reply to quote" on this, and it appears to be working!!

    I reverse course on this. While Pete should be aware that there is a later version out there, it is NOT solving the issue in 'replying with quote' and being able to use the space bar to start off. False alarm. So use the instructions I pointed out above to use the standard editor. My bad.
