Oh she's a lux bitch huh
 
Was just testing about posting copied cells from a spreadsheet and get this

'The submitted message is too long to be processed. Please shorten it.'

Early days but I've not figured out or a workaround yet.

Please try again if you will still get the issue. let me know your feedback
 
Weird, it can now post the table but posts the column headers at the bottom in HTML format.

Can you send me the link to that post?
1000 guineas post that was just copied from a spreadsheet. I think it might be because they are bolded in my spreadsheet as that's the only difference between the other cells that are fine.

Yep does seem it doesn't like bolded text copied from a spreadsheet, so that's worth noting
 
Can you try now?
When editing that post by deleting it all and copying from the spreadsheet I get the message:

'Oops! We ran into some problems.
Please enter a message with no more than 20000 characters.'

It's not close to being 20000 characters.

I believe the table consumed the characters.
Can you again now? I increased the lenght
 
Like it Kev, pages open quick as a flash. Will navigate the site properly later.
 
Yeah loads faster isn't it

Anyone had any issues, or any suggestions?

Warmer colours? Not a moan by the way, just you were asking for suggestions. Everything's very white or off-white. Maybe it's just because I use my phone to read on here 99% of the time and I've found myself squinting a bit the past few days.

Could be an age thing actually 😂

great work kev! super fast now.

the only thing I find harder now is to see the threats where there has been a new post I've not read. before that was very easy to see but not sure if that is highlighted now?

I do all viewing on phone so don't know if that's different for laptops etc

I agree. Fantastic upgrade but a little more contrast would help me scan things a little more quickly, particularly on a small screen. Things like unread posts, stickies, and @s don’t seem to stand out as much. It might also be that I just need to get used to the new way of things though.

….its loads better.

Be a help to me to easily upload screen shots or pics. Not sure how ‘http’ process works, it would be better if you’re taken directly to your pad/phone pics to make a selection.
