Hi all,

I have just had my forum updated to the latest version 7.71 and was advised to change to the new format UTF8 which I agreed to be done and was advised that old post could show black diamonds and with the new content should display without.

What I was not told was that if members are using microsoft word to store documents in and they then copy and paste into the forum the black diamonds would show up in their post after the update.

I am try to find out how this can be worked around (correctly with the new format) because I don't want to have to edit each post.

A few members (Historian especially) use copy and paste to post on the forum (to save time). They even have some of their document published in print (that is why they use word).

Here is an example of a post after install.

Any help with this would be appreciated.
