Thanks, is it still happening?

I tried it from both of my accounts and different browsers and didn't get the spike.

So if it's happening, what browser and kind of connection are you on?

Thanks!

I tried typing a test reply and it was behaving OK.

I use Chrome 64 bit, latest version and I'm on superfast fibre.

I did a small test in the thread. It turned out that adding code blocks or quoting other threads (the longer, the better) forces the problem to show up. After adding quotes from two other answers, the draft save took about 30sec. The screenshot shows this time as 'pending.'

Amen!

I am glad that your post has not been censured. I posted a similar commentary (in a different thread) regarding the process followed in this transition, two weeks or so after the cutoff date. That post was summarily removed by one of the admins or moderators** - I wasn't even alerted to it, I just saw it disappeared without a trace, a few hours after I posted it. Perhaps by now, with much more evidence of the same, they are more reluctant to remove such comments.

** Anticipating that someone will ask "what commentary are you talking about?" - I believe admins and moderators can check a poster's posting history, including removed posts - they should have very little difficulty finding it.

@Timo Hahn

This is one of denes kubicek apex blog for demo application where you can see related thread in the url below

Https://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:28:715172478253627:::::

In this you can see related thread region where the earlier link I sent is there

This is basically about text area demonstration using preformatted text

Thanks

Timo Hahn · November 2020

Have you searched for the thread using the serch of the communnity or goggle?

I only found one thread mentining the sample and this thread has nothing to do with preformatted text in a text area.

From the sample i can't see what to search for. You know the old thread and might be able to find it by searching for some key words.

@VivRichards - To clarify Timo Hahn's answer: when Oracle moved everything from the old platform to the new one, they told us upfront that while old "stuff" will still be available, in some form, the LINKS to such old "stuff" will all be broken. That's pretty lame in my opinion, especially for a high-tech company like Oracle - but it should be no surprise; we were warned of this repeatedly, long before the transition cutoff date.

This is why Timo is telling you that the way to find the old "stuff" is to do a search (you may try both Google and the search on this site) on key words in the article you are looking for. With some luck you will find it. After that, you will have to hope that the old "stuff" won't be moved again before you need to access it.
