There is no preview window anymore. Click on code tags does not have the “Past code here”. Similar posts window pops up inside post edit window.

I find it really confusing when I post code copied from the IDE using “Copy for Forum” that there is no obvious way to get the cursor past the end of the code and back to normal text entry. Everything I type seems to be added onto the code block.

Don't use WYSIWYG :wink: I do not know if you consider that an option.

I have noticed that edits which are made to posts using the rich text editor do not benefit from the 5 minute grace period that applies to the mark down editor. So even very new posts, that is 2 or 3 minutes old, are marked as changed if a quick edit is made.

Why did the Forum functions change?
