I recently noticed topics that begin with quotes. Here are a few examples:
- Alert to Slack when users hit cheers points thresholds
- How to assess storage size?
- Ayudame con mi smtp de maileroo
- Can someone tell me how these two functions are achieved?
- 网站使用行为埋点插件discourse 有哪些推荐
- Discourse-fully light/dark下不同的颜色变量如何设置并生效
- How can I install Discourse on Windows? Getting restarting (100) error
- Troubleshooting S3 Uploads: Site hangs after rebuild, JS assets fail to load with net::ERR_... on both R2 and GCS
- How to approve the creation of a user account without them receiving an email?
- When quoting someone, how do I make their text appear in my reply
I have the impression that this happens because it is more difficult to notice in rich text mode that after you remove the text, there is still some formatting.
At least, I haven’t only noticed topics that begin with quotes before the feature was added.
So maybe it makes sense to adjust the template to prevent this.
