Posting Shortcuts/Hotkeys

[Zeatherann]

Using Alt+S you can post to a thread, however this breaks when you are editing a post, as it instead tries to add the blank post that the hotkey is attached to from the bottom of the page. Maybe setting these hotkeys to more intelligently look up where you are editing from to submit that instead of a static post box? Lost many lengthy posts because of this bug.

I wasn't even aware of this keyboard shortcut. I am not sure I understand this though. Also, we are soon switching over to a different forum system. Hopefully that one will be better in this regard.

Hopefully! Also, to find out about the shortcut, mouse over the "Post Quick Reply" button. It shows Alt+S as the hotkey. If you want to reproduce the bug then try to edit your above post and hit Alt+S. You will try to post a blank post (As the quick reply text box is empty), and receive such an error saying you posted a post that is too short and try again.
