Answering questions with truthful preview User 152178735-Sep-21 14:57 User 15217873 5-Sep-21 14:57  Does anybody know a way to get truthful live-previews? So far nothing works for me, it always lies, so that whenever I click "Add A Solution". I then discover that my posted text was modded from what's displayed in the live-preview. Tried several 'pre' codes, its easy to get the preview looking correct, but it wont post that way. If not, I'm ok without previews if there's anything I can do to keep the posted text from being auto-modded (it will usually be PCRE regular expression). modified 5-Oct-21 21:01pm.

I notice that you have only posted one Solution, and it does not have any formatted part. So are there any actual examples of the problem you describe? And by the way, this has nothing to do with Article writing. Re: Answering questions with truthful preview User 152178737-Sep-21 7:43 User 15217873 7-Sep-21 7:43  Many thanks for replying. Yes, I tried many times answering... https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/727990/REGEX-for-validating-URL I tried at least 8 different times. The preview displayed perfectly, until I actually clicked the 'Post your solution'. After that, the text was auto-modded, this happenned irregardless of how many pre tags I experimented with. Im not sure what finally made the difference, I did change the default paste options. And then I just used the standard pre tag (not ASM,ASP,etc), and it posted just like the preview. Again, many thanks for the reply! modified 5-Oct-21 21:01pm. GitHub import - formatting issue Richard Deeming24-Aug-21 4:14 Richard Deeming 24-Aug-21 4:14  I've just imported a project from GitHub[^], and I noticed a formatting issue: Source: Imported: Where has the <span class="pl-pds"> come from? "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Re: GitHub import - formatting issue Sean Ewington24-Aug-21 4:28 Sean Ewington 24-Aug-21 4:28  I've seen it on a few blog entries and projects. I am not sure the cause, it could be the way GitHub structures their language tags and the article editor spits the <span> tags out. In any case, I have removed the span tags. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: GitHub import - formatting issue Richard Deeming25-Aug-21 2:34 Richard Deeming 25-Aug-21 2:34  Thanks for that. It was looking fine, but now some spurious line-breaks have appeared within the code blocks, even though I haven't updated the project: "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Re: GitHub import - formatting issue Sean Ewington25-Aug-21 2:50 Sean Ewington 25-Aug-21 2:50  Very weird. I think I fixed them all. How does that look now? Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: GitHub import - formatting issue Richard Deeming25-Aug-21 2:53 Richard Deeming 25-Aug-21 2:53  Much better, thanks. "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. EgorYusov15-Aug-21 23:45 EgorYusov 15-Aug-21 23:45  Hello! I am trying to update my article, but for some reason always get this error message: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. This never happened before. I tried to reduce the number of tags to 6, but still get this error. Can you please suggest? Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8.

EgorYusov6-Sep-21 8:51 EgorYusov 6-Sep-21 8:51  Can somebody please take a look? I am unable to make any updates to the article. Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. Sean Ewington7-Sep-21 5:08 Sean Ewington 7-Sep-21 5:08  I was able to post a change. If you'd like, you can email me (sean@codeproject.com) the modified HTML[^] and I can apply it Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. EgorYusov7-Sep-21 5:41 EgorYusov 7-Sep-21 5:41  Thank you! Do you know what was the problem? It is kind of inconvenient if I will have to send you the HTML every time I want to update the article. Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. Sean Ewington7-Sep-21 6:15 Sean Ewington 7-Sep-21 6:15  I actually wonder if it was a temporary problem and you might be able to update the article yourself. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. EgorYusov7-Sep-21 6:19 EgorYusov 7-Sep-21 6:19  I am planning to make another update soon. Hopefully it will work then. Otherwise I will let you know. Thank you for your help! Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8. EgorYusov11-Oct-21 19:21 EgorYusov 11-Oct-21 19:21  Hi Sean! I just tried to update the article and the problem is still present - I still see the same error message any time I hit Publish... Re: Too many tags. There is a limit of 8.

EgorYusov12-Oct-21 7:06 EgorYusov 12-Oct-21 7:06  Thank you. Though it is certainly quite unfortunate if I now have to ask you every time to update the article. Re: Too many tags.
