Messages Need A <P>!

Messages Need A <P>!
Hi:

Just notivced with the 1.2.1 version.... in a post, GF puts a <P> (or, probably really a <BR><BR>) between the end of a post and the included signature. However, in PM's, there is just a single line feed, so the sig is bashed right up against the bottom of the text.

I went looking for the code in templates (include_message_display.html) and that does not seem to be where these are put together.

Any idea where I can edit to get a <P> instead of a <BR> in messages?

Is it in IE or Mozilla where this happens? I don't seem to be able to reproduce this.

Hi Jason,

The private message system doesn't use the markup_signature_prefix tag (Setup -> Markup). So the "bug" happens on all browsers.

I've fixed this up for 1.2.2. It seems private messages were adding the signature directly, instead of using a signature tag ([signature]) - which also caused a bug in that changing your signature didn't affect the signature in private messages you had sent, unlike posts. 1.2.2 will have this fixed for all new messages.

Hate to sound like a broken record... is 1.2.2 a near term or long term upgrade?

I'm hoping to release it early next week; it fixes a few issues in 1.2.1 (some of which affect mod_perl) so it will be a fairly minor maintenance release - in fact, the user searching improvements are the only new feature present. The rest is just fixes. There is a similar Gossamer Mail 2.2.2 release in the works, which will probably be release about the same time.

So, unless a major issue crops up, you can count on a release of 1.2.2 on Tuesday.

The way your posts recently keep mentioning it, I kept thinking I had missed it or something, and then I go and chack, and it is still at 1.2.1...

Thanks-
