Bug in OP quote-reply in Forum?

A bug recently appeared in the mql5.com Forum wherein clicking "reply" as to an original post (OP) fails to quote/capture the content of the OP. This first appeared yesterday (10/12/2026) while navigating the Forum. I have repeatedly deleted my browser cache and temp files, restarted my browser, and restarted my pc to no avail.

Is anyone else experiencing this Forum bug?

For whatever it's worth... I wondered to some extent whether the bug was actually an intended Forum cleanup fix. When someone quote-replies to a massive OP, the result can be rather unsightly. I tend to select main ideas from the OP, and then quote-reply directly to each main idea separately. In this way, the Forum is a little bit cleaner.

It would be nice if the Admins could implement a max character crop in the quote field of the quote-reply.

I do agree and will report that suggestion too. Thanks.
