Black Tiger Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Every time a user reply's to a post, then his previously entered text is appearing again. This is very annoying. There is a bar at the button called: i Your previous content has been restored. Clear editor But that's a bit devious. I don't really see this happen here on IPS. Is there a way to disable this so if a user clicks box to reply or uses the reply button he get's a nice fresh screen instead of the text of his previous post/reply?

bfarber Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 That shouldn't be happening. When a user leaves the editor without submitting their post, if they come back their previous message should be shown. This is intended to help protect against browser crashes and the like so you don't inadvertently lose a long post you typed out. However, as soon as you submit the saved post should be cleared, so returning to the page later should not continue to show it. If that's not happening, you may wish to submit a ticket for support.

Black Tiger Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 It's also happening here on Invision. I had typed some text in another post some days ago. After posting to some other threads like this one, I went back to that thread because other posts were added and I could reply to that. And all my text from days ago appeared then too, It sometimes even happens if I delete the text from the box and then go to another post, very weird. I would rather disable this in whole.

bfarber Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 There's no way to disable it in whole, and the behavior you are describing is not intended. Do you have any browser extensions installed that may be interfering? It may be worth testing in another browser temporarily, or fully clearing your browser cache and disabling any browser extensions to see if the same behavior persists for you. (FWIW, in Chrome I'm not seeing that - when I post, the text is gone if I return to the topic later, but if I don't submit my post then it is remembered and shown to me when I come back, which is what is expected) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Tiger Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 but if I don't submit my post then it is remembered and shown to me when I come back, which is what is expected) That was what happened here on Invision, so in that case it's good here. On my own forums I got a different issue, even when posted everything is saved. But I already send in a ticket for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas P Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hi @Black Tiger was your issue solved and if so: How? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Tiger Posted May 21, 2019 Author Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hello @Thomas P Yes the issue was solved, it was caused by myself. It had to to with a .htaccess setting in my case, but this setting might also be used in a virtual host or something. This is the line which had to be removed, the second line could cause other issues so I removed that too. Header edit Set-Cookie ^(.*)$ $1;HttpOnly;Secure Header set X-Xss-Protection "1; mode=block" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
