Title: Forum Error
Post by: Cory on November 15, 2016, 02:51:56 PM
Hey all; Judge

So when im trying to edit my MMA Rankings thread since the forum changes, I get this error that says The Message Body was left Empty and trying to do a quick google search it seems like its been a common error on SMF forums. I dont know if the word count limit or something had changed or something like that, but it's like 6600 characters which doesnt seem too crazy to me. So it didn't let me save the post after editing, and to do a test I copied the post and tried to start a new topic and I got the same error. I don't know if anyone else with a long post could try and edit and see if they get the same error or not.

It doesnt seem to be an error in regards to editing a post as Ive been able to edit/save other posts that I have around the forums.


here's a screen shot.

Did you type it in Word?  Sometimes when you copy/paste from word that happens.

I removed all of the coding and it worked. Judge, do you know if there is a word limit/character limit for a post on the forums?

Either way I got it working, just less fancy.

I've got the post size limit turned off however there might be technical limitations.  You could probably break the post up into two or 3 posts and achieve the same effect with the formatting.
