Updated Panther Nation

I can't really put my finger on why but does anyone else feel panthernation took a step back with the new site? I get that it's newer architecture, probably more secure and easier to manage but seems like there's no activity any more and it's not just because of the teams performance. I really miss just seeing how many unread posts I have and quickly reviewing them.

Traffic is basically a function of how well UNI is doing. Being in the playoffs and March Madness are huge things to miss lately.

And that post did it as well when I used a quotation mark.

Any special character triggers this site and it cuts everything after it. I took a screen recording to show what I am talking about

Is it a mobile only thing? Or no ' or " anywhere?

That last one was should have said:

When I paste in an apostrophe that is straight vertical in shape, it works. When I paste in one that is curly, it doesn

Or apparently when I type one that is curly.

the 1st one you typed (') is a "Single quote"
the 2nd one you typed (’) is a "Right single quotation mark"

What browser are you using on what device?

Testing from my phone with a ' and a " for good measure

I get it on phone and computer - much more on my phone when typing but equally as bad on both when I copy and paste. Which is why I assume it is a format recognition error.

I try to use exclusively Chrome on my iPhone and computers. I have had the same issue with Firefox as well. Can't confirm from IE though, because f IE and it's garbage browserness.

[AmesPanther]

I changed the character encoding just in case. I haven't figured out how to duplicate it so it's hard to test any changes. I've tried Chrome/Firefox on PC. Chrome on Android. I'll have to try an iPhone.

Paste from word ‘ just to see.

[clenz]

I tried pasting a few things from UNIPanthers.com in my previous post and saving it to see if I could duplicate the result and it came out fine from my PC. UNIPanthers.com is usually horrendously bad at cutting off when pasted from.

I'll try one more article from my computer and then run a few tests from my iPhone

I know the rosters are really bad as well, it made doing the countdown thread almost impossible. I'll try one of those.

Whatever you did seems to have fixed the issue on Chrome from a Windows 7 based work PC

I'll try a few tests from my iPhone. Prior to iPhone rolling out their screen record feature I couldn't properly communicate the issue I was running into. Hopefully having the video helped show what I was talkinga bout.
