Ah, I see what's going on. The new editor is a javascript-based editor that goes through all of the HTML and learns what is within the textarea so that when something is modified, it can know that the element has changed or is gone.

So, that page with all of the tables and images is taking the javascript a REALLY long time to load.

I guess we're going to have to put a link to the old editor back at the top of all pages since the new one isn't playing nice with some of the more complex pages.

I noticed that sometimes, when trying to insert a photo in the New Editor selecting the white button "Insert image from SP or web", the orange bar "Admin-editor options" overlaps this button and covers it preventing the selection.

I was using Internet Explorer and nothing was working. Could not align pictures, could not put text in table etc.

I started using Google Chrome and everything worked. In case anyone else has the same problem.

I noticed that on some pages, the text has become completely invisible:

https://www.summitpost.org/mont-v-lan/152711

I assume these pages must have some sort of special coding.

With the new format when taking my SP images and starting an album, ONLY 1 photo uploads. I upload a 2nd and it replaces the prior. Also I get this message when deleting a page "delete_object()failed: DB Error: already exists"

No, that's just poorly coded HTML that is also breaking the page. There were two <div> elements right at the start of the page that were opened and never closed. I just closed them and the page is fixed now.

I'll check that out.

If you notice when you request to have a page deleted, you'll see this message:
"Your object was marked for deletion. It will be deleted manually by staff shortly."

If you request a second time, you'll get that error message because the object is already in the deletion queue.

Yes, IE is basically unsupported on the web at this point. Only moder browsers (Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, FireFox, etc.) will work with the new editor.

When creating albums historically, uploading images was disallowed. Albums are intended to be a collection of images that are already uploaded to the site.

Hmm, you're the first to report this and I can't seem to replicate it. Can you describe more about your setup and how and where you are not seeing the users' avatars?

I tried with Firefox and IE - same result: when I log out or browse in invisible/anonymous mode, avatars are shown correctly, and have a hyperlink to user's profile. When I log in, they are replaces with "no_avatar.gif" placeholder (styles/Charon%20-%20Main/theme/images/no_avatar.gif), and the hyperlink now directs to https://www.summitpost.org/phpBB3/
I can save the page if you want to take a look on the HTML source, or I can send you my password via email so you can try to replicate under my login.

Ok, I have worked through my pages and changed all the YouTube references from http to https. I have also adjusted my pages to fit mobile devices by reducing the size of the video windows and the number of columns in tables. This may not be the way to go but for the time being it seems to work.

Both would be helpful.

Yep, that's the way to go!
