Quote of the Day App Issue

Been working in the 'Quote of the Day' app.

When I enter the management area to add new quotes, two issues arise:

 1 - When I try to add format tags (ex: H1, H2, etc), the input box instantly closes and I have to start over. If I save a quote first as plain text, then reopen to make formatting changes afterwards, that works OK.

 2 - All the formatting changes to the quotes + embedded images are stripped away when I view them on my homepage. It just displays plain text.

 I looked in Github to see if this was addressed in the upcoming fixes. May have missed it, but didn't see it listed.

TY.

    • Hello Jeff C !

      Can't reproduce it from my side with enabled Froala editor. Do you use it with the enabled editor? Is it possible for you to provide me your UNA's operator access via Messenger to check?

      • Thank you. Worked.

        Did not know that Froala must be installed to get it to function (not the default editor).

        I have 9 active quotes, but when I select "By random" the same quote has displayed for 3 straight days. I did NOT select "Mark As Today's Quote." Even when I disable that particular quote and clear cache, the same disabled quote still displays on all my browsers. However, when I select "By Order" the quote finally changes to another active quote. I'll know tomorrow if a different quote will display each day.

        IDEA: I have the quote of the day block on multiple pages. I would like my visitors to see a new quote with each page they visit, instead of the same quote on every page for a particular day. That's boring. Mix it up! On Dolphin, that's how it functioned (a different quote was randomly selected for each individual page they visited).

        TY.

        • Well, the formatted text should be set in some editor.

          About random - it has another sense now than in Dolphin, "random" means that the quote will be "chosen" randomly on 1 day. Your request with other quotes on different pages will require at least the new methods in the code of Quotes app.
