    Posting Toolbar is missing

    No toolbar at all. I'm talking about the toolbar for things like - quotes, VB, Code ...

    Is this just me? Is there a setting that I need to reset?

    Am I really the only one with no toolbar in Quick Reply or Advanced??? No suggestions. It's been three days.

    Seems to be working/showing as normal for me. From a different post it seems the big guns may be away for a day or so. https://www.vbforums.com/showthread....=1#post5683039

    Thanks. I thought it might just be me because no one has mentioned it but can't find any settings to fix it.

    Re: Posting Toolbar is missing

    Well, it's definitely something with my machine. I fired up my other PC and no problems with the toolbar on VBF.

    I've restarted my PC
    I've logged out and back in
    I've had my browser remove all the cookies for this site.
    I've tried another browser.

    It's not just you. I'm missing the toolbars as well. Also, for me, if I click "Reply With Quote" on any post in any thread, I just get a spinning progress wheel. All attachment downloads are broken as reported by many others.

    There is some heavy burtation going on with the site as a whole it seems.

    Sorry your having the same problem but I'm glad it's not just my machine. I've run out of ideas and haven't received any suggestions.

    I'm confused. Is that suppose to be a fix or just an example of other problems?

    Test it yourself and report back. See if you can turn that into five separate lines with a blank line in-between.

    Re: Posting Toolbar is missing

    I see some of the other problems have been fixed. That good news.

    But I'm still confused about your previous post. I formatted the lines as you asked but have no idea what you were trying to say.

    Anyway I hope this toolbar issue is fixed soon.

    Sorry I didn't get back to you.... In Short - I CAN NOT do what you did. I can write a paragraph, but I can't do my favorite - drop and line and type another separate thought. NOW I'm going to hit enter two times and do it again.

    Some of the good news is that the missing buttons aren't missing on half the sister sites. It really helps to look to see why they work and others don't.

    EDIT: OH Look... It worked.

    Side Note: It's also really weird that out of 11 sites, I can't EDIT anyone's post on one site.

    Re: Posting Toolbar is missing

    It's a strange problem. I have one machine that has the toolbar and one that doesn't.

    So it doesn't seem to be an VBF account setting. I've ran Malwarebytes on the machine that's not working but found no problems. I haven' a clue what the issue is.

    Good luck
