You have purple? I agree about the whitespace when you have adblocker turned on.

Yeah I’m not filling out that form (mainly because I don’t care about TSR wanting to know this information).

Can’t you just copy and paste the content without it being in the quote?

Ah yeah sorry, I didn't realise the purple would be a bit confusing. My browser lets me customise bits and pieces about certain sites, I changed the colours because I prefer them (which is good news for the incoming TSR rebrand )

Yeah, I totally agree about the study level data harvesting thing, I'm just never going to fill it out - I haven't for the three years it's been here, so I don't plan to give in now.

Not if there's LaTeX in the content, no. (And I'd assume any other formatting would also get messed up).

So, when I reply to myself, I can't access the LaTeX source I'm quoting (or, indeed, see more than one line of what I'm quoting). Being able to do this is necessary when replying to complex queries.

OK, so if I edit a reply I've made, I can actually access the tag code. That's something.
But I have honestly no idea what TSR was thinking rolling this out in this state.

I know I've even defended the size of the header before as I understand it's fairly vital screen real estate for ads but it's intolerably large, the dimensions which are taken up by content versus void/non-useful space are totally out of whack.

I think for the header I'm getting hit with 35-40% of the screen, near unuseable imo.

Yes,

Would you mind sharing a screenshot, please? I wouldn't have expected it to be taking up that much of the screen!

The emotes button will be added soon - in the meantime, you can add TSR emotes to your post manually, or you can add general emotes by typing : followed by the emote you wish to include - e.g. : followed by 'star' would let you add ⭐️

Just now I clicked "Reply" to your post and started writing, and then it vanished - both your original post, and my half-written reply: I was still on the same page of the thread, and both had just vanished! I had to reload the page to get them back. Please can we have the old version rolled back until this current one is finished, fixed, and ready to be seen?

I have experienced this error as well. Using the old app until the website works again.

I pretty much don’t use LaTeX and barely see users use it these days so I wouldn’t know. Sucks then if you heavily rely on LaTeX.

Sadly, you're right about most users (hence us having to repeatedly ask for clarification about what people actually mean).

But almost all the maths "experts" (people with post-A-level knowledge) can and do use TeX. There are several hundred worked STEP solutions on TSR that use TeX.

(At the same time, it's not actually broken. They just only support the LaTeX tag and not the tex one (which everyone on TSR uses because it's less to type)).

It should display the latex/full content in the post above the reply field still - if not, could you share a screenshot, please?

Or is it specifically that you need to be able to copy the latex content from it that's the issue?
