Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with it on desktop, either.

This is likely what CPRich is referring to:

Wiki initial (prior to selecting "Show More" (red box):
Wiki after "show more" - errors boxed in red as well:

Generated in Chrome. Same behavior seen in Firefox. Also confirmed in Incognito Mode.

I see the same thing as shown in DELee's screenshots.

this seems similar to issue #2 I reported in my post in the "Errors editing wiki" thread: Error Message when updating Wiki

except in this case it's in the middle of a CODE block instead of a LIST. It seems that whoever wrote the new wiki functionality failed to account for the possibility that the "..." cutoff for the "Show more" might appear in the middle of an open bbcode tag.

We had limited options in regards to how to restrict editing to "good" users. It is now tied to being part of Coupon Connection. You have both CC and Omni access, so try incognito/private browsing? It's possible there was some kind of cache blooper

Another broken wiki: Building a UA city pair BIS table

Also missing edit capability.

As noted over in Broken Marriott Wiki thread, wiki for Building a UA city pair BIS table is broken too - with no edit button. Going to incognito/private does nothing.

This may prove to be troublesome for those such as myself who use wikis to plan DOs and other events (notwithstanding having to move my DO thread to OMNI like last time ). For those who had trouble using wikis in the past, I've always encouraged them to post in the thread and let me (or anyone else) update the wiki on their behalf, and in practice this has been a successful workaround.

So previously, wikiposts already required 90 days on the site and 90 posts to edit. This is a relatively small increase that should not effect that many users

Able now again to see the edit button - haven't tried to test editing yet.

However, the error noted in https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/34900526-post94.html and https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/34916889-post100.html still persists.

Any time I finish editing a wiki and click to save, I get an HTTP 500 error: Also note the URL it resolves to in the screenshot below



Apologies IBJoel for not using your format but I don't have it in front of me... I am using Chrome. This is not replicable in incognito mode as it requires logging in. Standard conditions apply.

Thank you for saying that, I should have added that edits save for me as well.

The 500 errors are being looked at. They're occurring as a larger problem
