      I can't log in to the main WWW.boards.is website using username/password combo. I get an 'the CSRF token is invalid. Please try to resubmit the form.'

      Computer is desktop, Win7, firefox.

      Installed 'adblock plus' a week ago but everything fine until yesterday.

      There's a similar query in the archive but no solution.

      Any help appreciated.

      (Typing on phone so apols for any typos)

      I believe I've nailed this down to the session handling and a bad choice that was made in their storage. Hopefully this is sorted now. Let me know if any of you still have issues going forward.

      In Firefox, open 'history', click 'show all history', right-click on www.boards.ie and choose 'forget this site'.

      Only took 2 months but who's counting :P

      I too am having this issue in Firefox.

      I'm currently logged in via Chromium.

      I use cookie exceptions. I added https://boards.ie -- it previously had just http://boards.ie

      Maybe the https everywhere addon has something to do with this -- everything was fine until about 2 weeks ago and I had this addon installed for months so maybe that's not the source.

      Solved! :)

    Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
