Default Unable to Use “Source” on Replies

iPad iOS version 11

Within the last two weeks, the source button no longer works properly.

On quoted replies, pressing source does nothing.

On new posts, pressing source does show the source format, but now puts in two tags IIRC.
If I press source again, that goes back to the WYSIWYG type of format, however, pressing source to revert to that format does nothing, just like quoted replies.Another problem is that paragraph breaks are lost, concatenating the text to the previous line. I have to edit my post to reinsert paragraph breaks. This is a pretty serious problem, considering everything worked OK a couple of weeks ago. AFAIK, i’ve Not updated the operating system recently. Please help. Thanks.

ETA: You can see the formatting problems above.

So glad you brought up the paragraph break problem. I am using an iPad Air 2. Not sure if it is a problem with Apple or if they made a mod to the website.I am on other forums and don’t have this issue.

Believe it or not, I’ve never used the source feature. It looks like it just toggles to a plain text version?
I know and have reported something wonky with top of page edits in a long message on iPad but still haven’t seen the paragraph issue. TestTest Test1234

Can both of you test a post and the features not working on your iPad with the normal ‘post reply’ button please? It may be related to the quick reply feature

test from iPad Air 2 on Safari

Can you please walk me through what happens when you press the image icon? Do you see any sort of error message when trying to upload your image?

Thanks!
