    I've noticed a problem with the appearance of my posts from Sept 26th onwards, that is, the FONT command is ignored and treated as ordinary text and displayed, see example below:

    Yes, I never have a polling card when I vote because I moved house four years ago and am still at my old address on the electoral register (ok, I’m lazy). I usually bring my passport for ID and they let me vote…. main thing is that you’re on the electoral register; btw, can now be checked online

    I used to cut and paste from a word processor into a post and then Boards would interpret it as Arial font and put the relevant format commands before and after the formatted text; the font commands would not be visible when viewing the post until about a week ago when something changed.

    It's not a problem in future as I can cut and paste from an unformatted text source but something changed in your software configuration that I think you are unaware of.

    Many thanks HelpDesk, you've fixed the problem.
