I cannot paste in comments. The option appears on long press, but nothing is pasted when I tap it (the comment box blinks, but with no visible effect). Pasting in the answer box, question editing interface, etc. works, and in comments on the mobile site in a browser.   App Version: 1.6.6.2 Device: iPhone 7 OS Version: Version 11.0.3 (Build 15A432)

I’m able to copy-paste from any application to any application. I’m able to copy from a comment or from a question or from an answer. I’m able to paste to a question or answer. However, if I attempt to paste into a comment, nothing happens. I am able to subsequently paste into another application, confirming that the text is actually on the clipboard.   However, copying SE links will paste them successfully, but all other text - including other links - still fails. This leads me to believe that it’s a SE issue and not an Apple one.   This has been an issue since 11.0 beta and persists through iOS 13 release.

In the inbox of the app, there is no way to differentiate between comments and answers as is in the global inbox of the website.  Could this be added?

On the mobile-web version of Stack Exchange sites, clicking the "add / show X more comments" link always zooms the "new comment" field into focus and opens the keyboard.  It also scrolls the page towards the top a bit so the new comments appear off the bottom of the screen.  Most of the time, when clicking on that link, I just want to read the hidden comments.  It's annoying when I have to dismiss the keyboard, zoom out and scroll back.  It should simply reveal the new comments and the keyboard should not show up unless I decide to tap inside the "new comment" field.  This is observed with the latest version of Mobile Safari in the latest iOS, although it's likely an issue on all mobile devices whenever the mobile version is displayed.    EDIT:  This question was closed with this reason:     "This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please edit this question to explain how it is different or ask a new question."   However, the original question does not already have an answer with a solution nor even an explanation.  like mine.  I don't dispute that I accidently posted the same complaint.  However, based on the wording of the closed reason, it would seem to imply that duplicates are allowed in situations when the original does "not fully address" the question.

Copy-paste functionality stops working after about an hour after each reboot on a Windows 7 64-bit system. Running Google Chrome (with gmail and few other tabs open like Calendar, Reader), MS Outlook (which I don't think has anything to do with the problem — I saw it when outlook was off as well), iTunes (9.1.1.12 if it matters).  Would appreciate hints where and what for to look in a registry, and ideas for possible fix.  That is not an Internet Explorer problem (I don't even run it) — it happens in all applications.  Neither Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V nor context menu right-click Copy-Paste (actually, nothing happens on Copy, so there is nothing in a clipboard to Paste) are working. Drag-and-Drop (where supported) continues working though.

I have found a design bug. If comments are locked on a question, the "add comment" link is still a link, although it is not clickable and serves no purpose as a link. See for example here :    Hovering over the element still produces the link mouse pointer and the link changes its color.  This is related to . I would suggest to disable the link behavior and use a different tooltip.

I noticed this issue as I tend to view Stack Overflow via the mobile site frequently:   The mobile version does not show possible duplicate questions while you're typing the question/description, while in "full site mode" the suggestions come up just fine.  In my mind, getting the suggestions to show up on the mobile version of the site should not be a hard thing to implement  While I admit it makes me lazy asking for this feature when there is a work around, the full site doesn't display nearly as well as the mobile one so it would make life a lot easier to have this simple change.  Also, what good programmer isn't lazy? :)

The suggested edit screen includes both the suggested edit, and the reason for the edit:        When you click to improve the edit, that comment is left as-is and hidden at the bottom of the post above the save edit button:        At the moment, when I Improve a Suggested Edit, the Comment text for that Edit is retained (though editable). It's unlikely that the comment would still apply (e.g. Suggester added a tag and Approver corrected a typo), so I would rather have the field blank.  Also, it's better to have a blank Comment than an incorrect one... many people don't bother changing the original Comment.  So that box should be blank like this instead:

I tried to follow a comment link from the Inbox into the question on the iOS app. A message popped up saying Page Not Found but that the link could be opened in Chrome; presumably the OP deleted it. However the link it tried to open when clicked was https://posts/comments/69702622...  Similar behaviour occurs when I try to click through a link to a deleted post from another post or comment; e.g. following the link in  then clicking Open in Chrome takes me to https://q/41223344.   This only happens with Chrome, switching my preferred browser to Safari works just fine.    App Version: 1.6.2.5 Device: iPhone 6s OS Version: Version 10.1.1 (Build 14B100)

I suggest a preview on the mobile page. For questions, answers and edits to both, like on the desktop page.  I messed up formatting often enough to be annoyed that there is no preview on the mobile page and I'm surprised that noone suggested it before (at least I didn't find anything).  If it's too performance heavy to have a live preview update after every change in the text box, there could be a preview button next to the save button which leads to a page with only the preview, a back button and a save button (and the title bar and so on).

Bravo for allowing comment editing, but what's the explanation for enforcing a five-minute window?  I think this might be over-engineering. If I have a spelling mistake or an inaccuracy I'd like to fix, I don't think the fact that five minutes has elapsed should prevent me from fixing it.  Further, if you are worried people will edit their comments in a way that makes the comment thread nonsensical, they can already do this by deleting their comment. So, limiting the ability to edit isn't really helping much in that regard.  Update  If people don't like this idea, I'm definitely open to hearing your reasons. For now, it seems like an unnecessary limitation of a quite awesome feature.  Update 2  Regarding John's scenario...     Me: Obama is cool!   You: You are right, man!      My edit: Obama is an idiot!   You: You are right, man!   ...this problem can still occur with deletions...     user1: Obama is cool!   user2: No, McCain is cool!   you: You are right, man!        user1: Obama is cool!   ---- deleted -----   you: You are right, man!     So, yes, editing could be abused as you suggest, but discontinuities can occur already because of deletions (and as someone else mentioned, because upvoted comments get prioritized upward).  As for Jeff's argument about rate limiting, I agree that is important, but I don't understand why you can't just use a CAPTCHA to prevent too many edits in a short period of time.

When reviewing Suggested Edits on Stack Overflow, I often come across "fixed formatting" suggestions that use  to place emphasis on certain keywords, but isn't actual code.  For example:     I am having a difficult time with a background task in iOS. The problem I seem to be facing is that iOS is silently terminating the App if my background task runs for too long. What can I do to increase time iOS will wait for my background task to complete?   Gets edited to:     I am having a difficult time with a background task in iOS. The problem I seem to be facing is that iOS is silently terminating the App if my background task runs for too long. What can I do to increase time iOS will wait for my background task to complete?

Often enough they get approved, which reinforces the behavior.  Is this a valid use of inline code spans? If not, should it be edited and corrected? Should edits suggesting these changes be rejected?

Here's a screenshot of the editing page as can be seen from far away:        As you can barely see, the side gadget called "How to edit" with formatting tips and such is below the "Save edits" button. This just happened to me right after I posted a question and without refreshing the page pressed "edit".  ()

As far as I can tell, whenever I try to submit an answer with CTRL + Enter, it doesn't work. As this is allowed on edits, reviews, and question asks I would be very happy to see this on answers too.

I am trying to ask a question on SE, have some mock data in Excel I've copied, and am simply trying to paste in to my question.  I've done this before dozens of times, but suddenly am having this issue.  However, when I do so, I get prompted to upload an image. (This happens with Ctrl + V and also right click --> Paste):    Am I overlooking something?  Edit: Playing around, I can copy from Firefox/browsers and Word, and paste in to the box as usual. Excel seems to be the only one giving the issue so far.  Edit2:  are still having this issue.

When I post a question and want to add a new line, I have to press Return two times, or else the next text will appear on the same line.  Is this really supposed to behave this way? If so, why?

Recently I commented on  question   and the text did got bold but the italic word didn't seem to get italic on Android Chrome(Latest Ver.), but when I saw from the PC browser, it rendered as it should...  I've attached a screenshot of my phone ...

I'm not quite sure why, but I was stuck with a Captcha when asking a new question on Arqade.  That's normally fine, but I'm not sure how I can submit it.  I typed in the needed text, and copy-pasted the string, but I don't really see a submit button or anything.  Here's a helpful pic:    Is something supposed to happen? How do I finish this Captcha?
