[QUOTE] tags sporadically work

Post by Ambush Commander »

I was searching the forums the other day (because that's what everyone should do) and I noticed something.

A lot of the tags weren't parsing correctly. Here are some examples:

viewtopic.php?t=6748 (second post quotes)
viewtopic.php?t=1118 (fourth post)

And of course, tags aren't parsed in search findings (although that's not necessarily a bad thing.

The funny thing is, if I were to quote the post, and then remove the quotes and preview it (so that I'm looking at the exact same underlying code), it *works*.

Am I seeing a weird cached version of these pages or something? Or is it just me (I can take screenshots if so).

I believe this broke when this update took place... the new quotes work fine, but the old "quote code", stored in the DB for all of the posts you linked to, doesn't.
