Try refreshing, you might be caching the old editor scripts. If not, try another browser.

If you post bug reports, please also post the error you get when trying it. We cannot help you otherwise.

theres no error. if I submit my new siggy, I get warped to the list of replied subscriptions (the CP frontpage) and when I check my siggy it hasnt changed!
The preview button acts like a reset button. It just resets the edit window. that's quite useful.

Clear your cache. You can do this by hitting Ctrl-F5. If that doesn't work, clear your cookies. To do this in Firefox, go to Tools, then to Options. Select the "privacy" tab, and below that the "cookies" tab. Hit the "clear cookies" button and restart Firefox.

I have this problem too. And I have yet to find out a way to fix it.

clearing history, forms, passwords, download history, cookies and buffer on both IE and Firefox doesnt work. Not for IE and not for FF. this seems a bug that is on the board. Now contact those vBulletin guys.

Have you tried using a different text editor? The plain text box should fix your problem, I think.

where can you set that, then? I just get a box like always... there doesnt seem to be a setting like that.

User CP -> Edit Options, and scroll all the way to the bottom. It's there.

Did this problem start after the upgrade to vB 3.5, or as it always been like this for you? What version of Firefox are you using?

Im using 1.5.. not the latest version becouse the latest version doesnt support the HTML Validator... I mean to remember changing my signature bedween the download of Firefox 1.5 and the forum update, I think it was the update... cuz it doesnt work in IE anymore too

Have you tried changing the text box setting to basic as Sonyk suggested? (It's at the bottom of the Edit Options page in the user CP)

yes, I have it on the more advanced features now, but not the WYSIWYG, sadly. When I made my edit (the tweedle with text) you sent a private message it was 10 kb too big:P thanks again:P

I just tried editing my signature to see if I could. Pressing the preview button resets everything. There really must be something wrong with the board.

We never actually updated the template for editing signatures. That could be the problem…

I'll look into it.

Edit: I've reverted it to the new template. Do you still have the same problem?

Fixed.

Hurray for Link!


... yes, I know my sig is pointless. =/ I couldn't come up with anything better. I should go find a picture of Uncle Scrooge, I guess.

Why the heck do you want that stupid tweedle image in your signature anyway? It's widely regarded as annoying.
