Noticed that some message text formatting is broken in this transition.
Here's an example. https://www.eng-tips.com/forums/engineer-business-practices-and-issues.784/
As I read it today, the "UL" un-ordered list is a mess of tags, while the "OL" ordered list is OK.

I hope the site coders notice and can figure out what to do about these issues.
 
I'm going to add to this versus creating a new one, this one has a bunch of quasi escape codes that aren't reading or displaying correctly, not sure if it's a me issue or a forum issue.


I'm talking about the &quot items, and similar.
 
I’ll also throw this one in, some of the fancier links I’ve done are either not displaying correctly (perhaps a “me” issue) or they aren’t displaying right, You can see one that’s working (up above) and the last one isn’t here:


The link to Miami Dade works and shows correctly, the link to the FAQ or the Gjinolli article doesn’t show up right.
 
While we are at it, any idea why there’s no apparent logic to the “sort order” for this FAQ? It used to be in chronological order, now it’s not.


Lastly, I used a leading space to force the general references to the top (I.e. web sites) and that leading space is still in the entries (not lost in site conversion) but they aren’t forced to the top anymore, so if anybody has ideas, either a big fix or a workaround, please let me know.
