Rich-text editor doesn't work on iPad

[Street Comedy 327]

Every time I try to post on my iPad, I can post and all, but no being able to highlight my words into colors or cross out stuff, change font and size, or upload any images. I don't know what the problem and I need help.

I'm not sure but you might need to manually add in the BBcode. I'm not sure there is much the admins of the site an do here about that but you might wanna check though...

 

here are some BB code examples

/*
[s]strike Through[/s]
[u]underline[/u]
[B]bold[/B]
[size=1]Font size 1 (change number for bigger/smaller font[/size]
[color=#000000]Change 000000 to a hex colour #RRGGBB,[/color]
[quote]quote[/quote]
*/

I don't think there are options for those unless you are on the full version of the site.

Best bet is what Flare said, you will have to manually put in those pesky codes. Because of the time that will take you might as well go with regular font/size

I got my iPad today and I've noticed this too, even though I'm using the full version of the site. I think the only solution is to manually enter the codes.

I can confirm that typing in the codes manually works.

The problem is that the iPad's browser (a stripped-down version of Safari) has certain limitations that prevent the full editor from functioning. This is beyond the control of myself, Kurtiss, or IPS - only Apple can "fix" this.

 

However, as BBCodes are processed server-side, they will still work if you enter them manually (you have to do that on most other forums, anyway ).

I'm pretty sure this is the same for all apple mobile devices
