You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
So for this (new) post I get a nice large box to write in. As I do replying to most forum posts.
however, if I try to reply to the comments on a news story the box is less than one character high.

[Mod] now reported to Tech.
Yep, me too
and me. thought i was being punished for no longer being a full member.
And me.
If someone else has already commented, you can find it in the forums and you get the proper box. If you go to it under the article itself you get the smaller box.
Thanks for reporting this. I am having a bit of trouble replicating this issue. Please let me know the device and browser in which you are running into this problem.
its because singletrack has a line height of 0 for textareas on news articles

you are missing the editor stylesheet for news articles
.wp-editor-area
Having claimed to have had zero problems in this forum I hit this problem within in minutes
IOS and chrome
I get the same on IOS Firefox.
Thanks for the replies. I can't replicate. However thanks to @trickydisco I've got the the csshammer out of the toolbox and given it a bit of a tap. Pls report if still broken and remember your device/browser details. Ta very much.
No probs. I spend my life solving these things
Just to confirm, this seems to have fixed it.
