I have searched the forum but could not find this answer.

Has anyone had the problem of slashes // being inserted into the PM Welcome Body. I type my message in the text box and hit save then this is what the message looks like.

The slashes actually end up on the email, pm, and connections message to the user.

Can anyone help?

What are you trying to do?

I think you can use the concept [NL] to generate a new line.

Thank you nant for the quick reply. All I did was type up the message in notepad and then cut and paste it the box. When it hit save or apply it automatically puts the slash's in. I have even tried to type the message in the box provided, but still get the slash's. Not sure of what I am doing wrong.

nant,
I have tried that as well and it does not work. Does i matter that I am using firefox for my browser?

Sorry to be a pain, but this is frustrating.

What version of joomla?

The plugin needs legacy enabled.

Try without any carriage returns first and then experiment.
