new create entries beta

We had the old "new JS on journals" beta reporting entry as the topmost entry in this comm, which was causing some confusion! So, a fresh post for people to report problems they're having with the new Create Entries beta.

Things not yet implemented:

* a WYSIWYG/rich text editor to allow people to post formatted entries

* the ability to save draft entries, both so you can deliberately postpone entries for posting later and so that an unexpected browser crash or problem during the posting process won't cause you to lose work

* admin editing of community entries

* the "don't autoformat" checkbox (we can't quite figure out which pane to stick it in!)

Things that will be documented once it comes out of beta, but some people have missed:

* if you don't like the placement of panels or don't want to see certain panels, you can customize the placement and which panels appear by using the "Edit entry form settings Settings" link in the main toolbar at the beginning of the form.

If you have anything else to report, please let us know here!

alright... I did all what you suggested ( toggle Tags module off, both hard refresh and restart FFox) double checked the cache (went ahead and deleted ALL offline content just in case).

No good.

I had also had the "minimal animation" checkbox on, went ahead and deselected that too just in case it was doing something wacky. It wasn't.

One final thing I'll try is to log out of this account, quit FFox, log back in with a different account, exit, then restart and try logging into silverr again.

(Wouldn't have anything to do with trackers or location services, would it? I generally block those on principle.)

... aaand having done all the above (logging out of S, logging in as not-S, restart computer, log out of not-S, log back into S... problem is still there.

I'll try one last thing -- opt out of and then back into beta - but if that doesn't work either, I'll just use a different browser for now.

... and now, inexplicably, it's back to normal!

(I'm not at all sure what I did to jostle it into behaving, though I've been resizing / maximizing the browser window itself several times.

UPDATE: Okay, get this:

screen shot of when I hit the "Restore" button (between the close box and the Minimize):

Note how in the second picture the Tabs module has stretched to fill the window width? Is that weird or what?

... and if I keep clicking that button to toggle between the modes, the Tabs module shrinks when I'm full screen, and stretches out when I'm not!
