Hey @pjk, I just wanted to point out that (a) the search engine is not working at the moment, and (b) when you press on a members profile, and click on the "Posting" button it comes up with the same error code as that with the search engine. The error code is
"Oops! We ran into some problems.
A server error occurred. Please try again later."​
Thanks in advance for checking on it, and (since I believe in you to fix it) thanks for fixing it : )
Please try now. Will try to prevent that from happening again. Let me know your feedback on it's accuracy.

On my iPad, if I click on the select page button for a thread, it always starts with a 4. For example, on Non-Cubers say the Darndest things, I tried to go to page 75, it would come up as page 475, and I have to press the backspace button every time I select a page. I'm on Speedsolving Dark by the way.

When you click on page 75, it goes to page 475 and says it doesn't exist?

Testing it now, there is a number pre-filled for me. It is however selected, so as I type it's replaced.
If the page list is "1 2 3 ... n" then the pre-fill will be 4 and if the page list is "1 ... n" then the pre-fill will be n-1

Thanks for that, Rob. That is expected behavior. @PetrusQuber how would you prefer it worked?

The wiki seems to be broken:

MediaWiki 1.31 internal error

Installing some PHP extensions is required.
Required components

You are missing a required extension to PHP that MediaWiki requires to run. Please install:

Two issues:

(i) There's been a couple of times when I accidentally posted a partially-written post because that's triggered by ctrl-enter (which is easy to accidentally hit when pasting some text and then trying to add a new line). Would it be possible to disable this, or at least have an option to disable it?

(ii) The tab width in code blocks is only four spaces, which makes it pretty much useless for creating tabulated data (e.g. the stats tables here were made in then copied directly from LibreOffice Calc, so they use ASCII tabs; I'd have to rewrite all of it with BBcode to make it a "proper" table). Increase to the (default) eight spaces, maybe?

I will look into disabling that shortcut and get back with you.

When you have to rewrite it all with BBCode, what exactly are you doing? Adding 4 more spaces manually? There are some issues with spacing that I'm currently working on.

As in, use the proper BBcode table tags instead of just stuffing the table into a code block as plain text.
