  brechbuehl, don’t use the Beep, Beep, Boop, too-blue-to-use and less functional editor. Use the classic editor instead for new posts and editing older ones.

  Here is a post I made with screenshots, and links to “work arounds”:

  @brechbuehl, if you’ll let us know what browser you’re using and which post you tried to edit, we would be happy to test and figure this out.

  I’m having that problem now. I see these typos and want to edit the title and it is really irritating me, especially since I can’t fix it at this time. I think the site might be having a temporary glitch and I hope it’s over soon.

  Hi @earthquakejohanson, I’m going to go ahead and close this thread since your issue is likely unrelated to the original. I’ll contact you via ticket instead. Cheers!
