Can't remove tagged people from quotes

[LogicalDrm]

Neither delete or backspace works. Can't select them, nothing. I was trying to quote CS and delete the 3 tagged names at the end. Previously double-backspace has worked.

(You should at least update to 52.9 ESR if you want to stay on an old version of FF, but that is also no longer supported by Mozilla).

Editing that post specifically is a bit buggy, but that's largely because the contents were converted from IPB3 (the post has been remade, but it's a copy and paste with some changes of the original converted post). In general, mentions in quotes are no different to anywhere else.

You don't need to remove mentions from quotes though, as they don't send notifications.

This sometimes also happens on 62.0.2 64-bit. If the text cursor is outside of the orange box (tagged name), then you can remove it, but if the text cursor is inside the orange box then it doesn't let you do anything (delete, space, return, etc)

The only thing I found that removes the tagged name is clearing the editor using the button provided.

Inside orange box:

Outside orange box:

Feel free to delete this if I misunderstood the issue

 

You should be able to escape out of the orange box using the arrow keys, home/end or the mouse though.

For some reason that didn't occur to me, sorry.

 

Thanks

That's good to know, but I'll continue to edit anyway. Looks better.
