SOLVED: HTML in old posts - 1.03 to 1.04 upgrade 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Perhaps I am missing something, or have done something stupid because I have not had enough sleep... but, since I upgraded from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4, all the posts have some raw html that is not rendered. It is mostly line breaks ( ) that have taken the place of a carriage return at the end of a paragraph. Apostrophes are also showing up as code.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm using the default_gray template.

Hi!

Can you please show me some exact output sample? (use 'noparse' tags or 'code' tags for that copy paste)

Or pass some link.

Yes, before in database where ugly things and we completely cleaned parsing and output.
Indeed, someone told he has seen such a thing but we didn't get a report and couldn't reproduce it till release.. Possibly this only happened when editing messages or anything else special under 1.0.3

Since new format is future, we might need to find a way to clean your database.
However this will result in a replacement SQL - and nothing else.

Please tell us exact which tags ever show up and i'll provide you solution how to clean all that with (one) simple DB-querie(s). You only need to execute it in phpMyAdmin.

It seems to be apostraphes, quotes, non-breaking spaces, and line break tags. Here are some example threads:

anime.realsubtle.com/index.php?option=co...mp;id=27&catid=6

anime.realsubtle.com/index.php?option=co...mp;id=84&catid=9

Feel free to take a look around. Most posts have this problem on my board.

Thanks ^_^

Also, this is converted from a Simple Machines Forum, but it was fine in 1.0.3

Can you guys confirm, if you see this only with old posts (from prior version(s)) or if this happens with new posts as well?
To test this, could you create an entire new post (do not quote an old one) and see if you still have this problem.

I have a thought that this is stuck in the db from prior and we might need a little patcher to go trough all existing posts once.

Thx!

Yes oliver, looks like we missed something... However:

These occurences are not part in anything else till now and so we can do a global replace...

' > '
" > " (this could also be there, i'm not sure)
  >
> n

So 4 SQL queries to execute in phpmyadmin for the moment for each one bothering .-)

If someone else want to post the solution, OK... Else i'd check all that in deeper detail and post these exact queries to correct.

Thanks for your bug submission.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I've been busy with visiting family ^_^

This only affects old posts. I have made a new post to test and it does not have the same problem. If there is anything else I can do to help you squash the bug, please let me know.

Thanks

same issue here.. some weird characters appearing in existing posts.. characters like
& g t ;_& l t ; I & # 0 3 9
also the boxes/borders that on quoted messages are no longer present, i think this may also be related..
