Section Edit Overwrites Entire Page!

If not for the History tab, this would be data loss. Still it's quite bad. When performing a section edit, saving it only saves that section. The rest of the page completely disappears. Also, the section title is messed up in the editor.

To fix the data loss, modify the template called vw_editor_page. Find:

Code:

&lt;input type="hidden" name="section" value="{vb:raw edit.section}" /&gt;

Replace with:

Code:

&lt;input type="hidden" name="section" value="{vb:raw edit.sectionid}" /&gt;

To fix the messed up heading (and potentially more data loss), additional changes had to be made to the parser to suppress word-wrapping long bits of text.

These fixes will be included in Alpha 3.
