My Code Disappears/Recodes Itself Without Being Touched

[Nahara46]

URL: strongwindacademy.proboards.com/thread/1540/hogwarts-sorting-hat

So that's the main thread this is a problem in and we've noticed it, though it's happened elsewhere. Basically, a bunch of code likes to very randomly between saves change brackets to < & >'s like changing it to HTML, but only a few throughout the whole thing and you can just imagine how much chaos that causes in a code. Sometimes the breaks between columns will disappear, and after trying it at least 10 times to fix it, I know for sure it's not my just putting in something wrong. For example, I have gotten it to where the 'Eagles' and 'Owls' and 'University' tables are all sorted out, but then between saves they'll change suddenly, even though I didn't touch the code of them between the time i saw them working and I saved again.

Please and thank you for any help, this is causing a lot of problems.

Hi

Not sure i follow entirely. But looking at the link you posted, i can see the post is a little messed up. Could i ask that you try replicating the issue on this forum. So make a post using the same content, and then see if the same problem arises/

[Nahara46]

Will do! Hope it's just something on my forummm (Just gunna paste the whole thing here and see it messes up again between fixing it)

And, if it means anything, I have gotten a similiar issue on my test forum. Though there it never deleted any of the table code, it would just randomly turn something from bbcode to HTML.

EDIT: Just to keep track, as of this edit the Eagle and Ravens are entirely fixed and I am no longer touching any of the code above the Owls so- if it changes then we'll know?

EDIT AGAIN: Okay, just finished the Owls.

EDIT 3: University is done. Maybe it was just something on my forum? MMmm, wel, at least i can just finish it here and then copy past it over or something. I think maybe the best example of thing changing, is that in the img codes, it's changed between brackets to < & >'s for many of them.

The Sorting Hat


Oh you may not think me pretty, but don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find a smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black, your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat and I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head the Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you where you ought to be.

You might belong in Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff, where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin you'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends.

So put me on! Don't be afraid! And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none), For I'm a Thinking Cap!

Okay, so, it looks like the problem was solely to my forum? I'll try just copying this into there right now, and see if it decides to destroy itself randomly again.

[CheatAreZee]

Looks like it's working on your forum now, Nahara46? I had a look at the thread you linked to, but everything looks good from what I can see

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you:

Yes, since the code didn't mess up on this forum, i just copied it over and haven't touched it since. But, it wasn't really messing up at original posting- more things would disappear and change between edits? I think it might have something to do with going between Preview and BBCode, but still not sure and we haven't tried editing it again since yet. If something happens I'll definitely take a screenpic or something and let you know.
