Changing signature error message

Post

Back to the top
Hey,

I seem to have a problem when trying to change my signature, whenever I try to edit it following message pops up:
"The signature is too big for all applicable usergroups"

Even when I try to completely delete it, it still pops up. This also causes me to not being able to change other settings;

Am I doing something wrong?


Thanks,
Martijn

Hi,
I have just tried and it saves fine for me.
I even tried it masquerading as the  Martijn and it saved fine.

What device and browser is being used?

Cheers,
Ade

Hi Ade,

Hi,
Ok, so this looks like a chrome issue with the WYSIWYG editor.
I was using Safari and it saves fine.

You can make it save on Chrome as follows:
(1)Open your profile.

(2) Click Edit
(3) Click Signature.
(4) Click "Disable WYSIWYG editing" - it will mess your signature up, do not save it, close the browser window and open your profile again in a new window. A cookie will now of been saved that forced non WYSIWYG edtiing.
(5) Edit and select signature again, you will have the simple editor now and will be able to save your signature.

Or just use Safari !

Cheers,
Ade

Worth pointing out is that you need to disable the "WYSIWYG editor" before you start typing a new post.

I've found to my cost that if I disable it halfway through a message or at the end it makes a total hash of the text.

You'll find yourself typing the whole thing again.
It happens across multiple browsers and operating systems!  :thumbs:
