Please take a look at this screen shot. http://www.unitmodels.co.uk/fault.jpg
i am using the latest pligg release
tinymce editor is being used.

Basically what has happened is ive copied and pasted some text into a new article. the text was

</strong><strong>

When i submitted the article it changed all the text in the articles following it to bold and a different type. Has anyone had this problem?? any idea on a fix ?

The fault can quite clearly be seen here http://www.unitmodels.co.uk/fault.jpg

lazynewt, go to the admin links and edit the story for "coal will kill us all". On the edit story page, look at the Summary box for this story, there must be a tag that the submitter must have left 'unclosed'. The tag I assume is <strong>
Whenever I submit a story using tinymce, i always edit or copy/paste a certain portion of the main story on the Summary box, just to ensure there are no tags left unclosed.
Edit: All HTML tags must be closed in the Summary box. i.e a <strong> tag should be closed with a </strong> tag. notice the presence of the 'forward slash /'
Hope that helped

Hi nothing man thanks for the reply. After i wrote this i did go and do that. My problem is that my community will be posting articles and if things pick up it might be a bit of a problem unless i modderate it very often and carefully. Just wondering if anyone has an idea how to fix this for good..

thanks for the reply nothingman.

same problem here and my tags are closed. It still continues down the page. Wouldn't this mean there's an unclosed tag somewhere in link summary?

...I don't even know why I ask like someone will actually reply around here : (.

I found the problem at least with my site.

The culprit is the "add this link to Digg" section in your link_summary.tpl file. The code has a truncated version of the body text ready to send to Digg. If the story gets cut off in the middle of an HTML container, viola - open HTML tag to hose the rest of your page up.

I'm sure there's a way to strip tags before sending to Digg. If anyone knows how please post.

Here's a quick fix: (It won't auto fill the Digg story this way just the title)
Line 230 in the link_summary.tpl

&nbsp;&nbsp;<a title="submit '{$title_short}' to digg" href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&amp;url={$enc_url}&amp;title={$title_short}&amp;bodytext={$story_content}"><img src="{$my_base_url}{$my_pligg_base}/templates/{$the_template}/images/digg.png" border="0" alt="submit '{$title_short}' to digg" /></a>

replace with:

&nbsp;&nbsp;<a title="submit '{$title_short}' to digg" href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&amp;url={$enc_url}&amp;title={$title_short}"><img src="{$my_base_url}{$my_pligg_base}/templates/{$the_template}/images/digg.png" border="0" alt="submit '{$title_short}' to digg" /></a>

&amp;bodytext={$story_content} was removed.
If anyone knows how to fix this with full functionality please let us know.
