| Anyone having problems editing??
The last few days whenever I try to edit (which is often as I never seem to see the typos till I post the post) and press the save button it just does it's little going in a circle thing and never seems to post. I end up having to go to advanced options to submit it. Is it just me??

I get that delay, too, but if I reload and check the post, it has registered. Frustrating though....

same here. I've been doing control-C while waiting interminably for it to load; then refreshing my browser, which seems to make something happen, then control V. Helps sometimes. I'm an inveterate editor, as well.

Me too. After waiting forever -- god, at least 20 seconds! -- I scroll up to the top of the page, click on the forum I'm in, and see that my post has posted after all.

If you press the 'go advanced' tab and submit from there it goes through fine. Just tiresome having to do it every time.

I do another forum which was just yuku-ed off of ezboard, and I cannot edit for the life of me there. I will have to edit my thoughts first I guess, instead of cooling off and revising!

Same problem here. Also, I am having a problem with new posts loading properly. All started about the same time.

After editing and after you hit the "save" button, just go to the top of the webpage and hit the refresh button[ 2 arrows pointing up and down] Your editing will then "take". This has worked for me 3 times today.[ including just now]

The edits work -- they just don't APPEAR to have worked because the save thing just keeps going and going and going...
