... anyone know a solution for when formatting stops working on this forum? I can see everyone else's formatting is working, but now all my spacing and paragraphing disappears when I post.

... I don't use a PC. Firefox or Chrome on a mac. Neither are formatting properly. Weird.

I use Firefox on Windows 10, and I've noticed the same thing ever since the update of Firefox to version 60.  I have no idea why that is occurring.

To get paragraph spacing to come out properly what I've been doing is to initially put a second space between paragraphs, then clicking the Preview button to see what that produces, and then usually for just some of the paragraphs eliminating the extra space based on what I see in the preview.  Followed by an additional preview to verify that everything looks right.

@prof, I'll add my best wishes for a speedy and full recovery to those that have already been expressed.

All the best,

Out of curiosity, is anyone else getting weird stretched-width formatting for this page of the thread?

I believe that what is causing the page to stretch horizontally, at least when viewed in Firefox, is the long URL in Unsound’s post dated 4-3-2019 at 12:32 p.m. EDT. I’ve seen that happen in the past in other threads, and in at least one such case the poster subsequently deleted the post and things went back to normal.

On my system the issue does not appear with Microsoft Edge (which wraps the URL into many lines, so that each line is not any longer than usual), but does appear with Firefox.

My practice when providing a lengthy url in a post is to put it "under" a short piece of text, like this. Which can be done using the "Insert URL" button that is above the response box, after selecting the text under which the URL should be inserted.
