I haven't saved my miscellaneous settings for this account in a very long time, but when I looked just now, I saw one <br /> before my tutorial link. I'm glad I have more than one line in my signature, so I was able to check this.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Sat, 09 Feb 2013 01:53:51 +0000 Re:https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279849,from=rss#post279849https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279849,from=rss#post279849You can clearly see that I had saved mine more than once. It makes the new siggy show sooner. However, I thought I had only saved it twice. From my screenshot it looks like I did it three times.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Susa)Sat, 09 Feb 2013 01:39:32 +0000 Re: Greek turns to gibberish in miscellaneous settingshttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279848,from=rss#post279848https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279848,from=rss#post279848Eek! I just put this in on one of my test accounts: Sunroom eHappy When I went back in, it had this: <br /> <br />Sunroom <br />eHappy Then I saved it and went back in, and it had this! <br /><br /> <br /><br />Sunroom <br /><br />eHappy It could very well be related. I forgot to announce that the gibberish bug had been fixed, but it looks like a new bug was introduced in the process. Thanks, Susa. I'll pass it along to Thor. ***Edit to add*** The same thing happens with the PM answering machine. I decided to test it because it's also in the miscellaneous settings and accepts BBCode.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Sat, 09 Feb 2013 01:36:15 +0000 Re:https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279847,from=rss#post279847https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279847,from=rss#post279847I thought this might be related to my previous problem with the gibberish in my state. Tonight I changed my signature picture and ended up with a bunch of br's in it that I didn't put in. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Susa)Sat, 09 Feb 2013 01:23:20 +0000 Re: Greek turns to gibberish in miscellaneous settingshttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279624,from=rss#post279624https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279624,from=rss#post279624If you say so. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Sat, 02 Feb 2013 04:38:50 +0000 Re: Greek turns to gibberish in miscellaneous settingshttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279623,from=rss#post279623https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279623,from=rss#post279623quote:Lesigner Girl wrote: There's a difference?

I sent that link to Thor just now, so he'll know what other types of characters to watch out for when he fixes it. He would probably already know it affects more than just the location field, but I mentioned that, too, just in case.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Mon, 28 Jan 2013 01:01:04 +0000 Re: Greek turns to gibberish in miscellaneous settingshttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279523,from=rss#post279523https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279523,from=rss#post279523You're welcome Susa, You ran into the same bug that had Erika panicking the other day but back then we thought it was just a glitch on the difference between mobile devices and full featured PC's (obviously we were wrong). You're welcome LG, It really is the same bug discovered first by Erika I think (Global staff can see the first report here)...nondisclosed_email@example.com (Pastor Rick)Mon, 28 Jan 2013 00:52:22 +0000 Re: Greek turns to gibberish in miscellaneous settingshttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279518,from=rss#post279518https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279518,from=rss#post279518You're welcome, Susa. Thanks for the added info, Rick. No worries about me touching Erika's sig. I couldn't even if I wanted to.

You can see what I mean if you look at Erika's or my own siggy (just don't touch anything on Erika's or she will lock up the coffee pot)...nondisclosed_email@example.com (Pastor Rick)Mon, 28 Jan 2013 00:26:47 +0000 Re: Control Panel issuehttps://bakheva.runboard.com/p279503,from=rss#post279503https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279503,from=rss#post279503Ah, now it makes sense, and I'm able to reproduce it consistently. Basically, it's submitting the Greek properly, but when you go back into your miscellaneous settings, it's putting gibberish in that field instead of the Greek. I'll let Thor know, and also move this over to the Bugs forum after changing the subject line for search purposes. Edit to add: It will also do this with Chinese, and I'm sure anything else that uses non-Latin-derived characters.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Sun, 27 Jan 2013 23:26:28 +0000 Re:https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279502,from=rss#post279502https://bakheva.runboard.com/p279502,from=rss#post279502No. In my location under my name.
