The Project Pad

Got this:

Odd. Can you paste the text of the post here? Did it contain any special characters/etc?

Same error. What I'm trying to do is quote a post from the even organizer. I click the quote buttons in the full editor and paste in his message.

Test quote option:

test

So that works, odd. See my attempts in the gatherings section? It showed up as guest. Very odd.

Can you paste the text here?

That fails also.

In a quote block or outside of it? Or both?

If both fail, plz email me the text

Maybe it's too long?

Open up note pad on your PC and paste the text there, then clean it up by removing any code or strange characters. Once its just text, copy and paste it to the forum here.

I'm not a member of that forum, can you plz email the exact text that you are pasting into your message body here? In a .txt file would be cool

Ok, so I figured it out when saving it in notepad. Said something about unicode text.

Can you please delete my previous failed attempts in the gatherings section?

Yes, will do...but only if you email me the exact text including any Unicode characters!

Sent. The only way I could send it was directly pasted into your email. Putting it into a notepad text stripped the unicode.

I think I know whats going on here.

We had to migrate the forum from microsoft SQL to MySQL and in the process the table definition isn't 100%. I think I can fix this by doing a table backup, recreating the tables from scratch and importing the data back in.

I see the same error in my import script, which is why some guys that requested project threads only got half of it imported or whatever. I'm looking into it.

The bad topics have been deleted.

Marc thinks he has a solution - thx Nick.
