Hello all! Discourse has released a new “Rich Composer” that lets you see the post as it will look while you’re composing it - that is, in the same text box. No more preview window needed.
However, it has caused some issues for us because well, in typical Woot fashion, we do things differently and the new format breaks some things we’re used to doing.
So I’ve set the original composer to be the standard that appears when you post.
If you want to switch to the new composer, you can do so with
- CTRL-M
- The switch on the upper left of the toolbar
Try it out and pick your favorite. Is something that used to work suddenly doesn’t, switch back to the original composer.

window colors still screwed in Chromium v138.0.7204.183 under Ubuntu 22.04 
Point me or tell me what parts are wrong. I don’t use dark mode so I don’t know what’s right or wrong.
The white area around the preview side is transparent at the bottom, letting the screen behind it show through…
and in the first screen shot, you can see in the Preview pane that the first line of text is too light to see.,
For comparison, this is what it should look like, and this is under Firefox on the same system

Rich Text sounds too expensive…

Sounds like the name of a Kid out in CA.
“Hi, My name is Rich Text, you might know my mother…”

Looks like the new editor plugin doesn’t play well with Chrome WebKit on all platforms.
Well. Emojis are no longer the same.

Doesn’t work in either editor!
