is anyone else having an issue with the tab order?
i generally post a quick reply and then hit tab on the keyboard, then space to post...

Curiously enough, this issue is not present when logged in as an admin. But, when I log in with a non-admin account, sure-enough. No tabbing out of the Quick-Edit.Apparently, it's a known issue:https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php/385970-Quick-Reply-Tabbing-Broken-After-UpgradeHas to do with the new WYSIWIG editor. If you click the top left icon, it will switch you to the classic "source mode" editor... and that one will let you tab out. (at least it did for me) If that works for you, you can go into your settings (Settings>MyAccount>GeneralSettings>MiscOptions>MessageEditor) and set your default editor to "Standard Editor".Until VBulletin fixes their bug, that's the best we can do.

i'm confused with your post, but the information provided has helped me.
currently the tab function is working with WYSIWIG as i was set to standard previously.
it sounded like your post was the opposite.
regardless, thank you!!!
i can post with ease now.
and i guess you can lock this thread

I might have had the two modes backwards. Glad it helped.

I've noticed that using the arrow keys to move the cursor around unfocuses the cursor from the reply field. It's rather odd and somewhat annoying as I like to type out my tags like a crazy rather than click a button.

Ninja edit: Switching to the "standard" editor fixes the problem so it appears to be limited to whatever the default editor is.
