I wanted to test out the new preview feature, though as I was doing so, I realized that not codes would register when working in the preview.

However, they worked when being viewed normaly.

And, ironically enough, when I was writing this, 3/4 of the links didn't register in the preview.

Maybe, according to the "warning" on your screenshots, your device is "too small" to display the full "desktop" view.. that's why the preview might not be "accurate"? 🤔


I won the "Event Spriting Contest" as it says on News Announcement #224.

It wouldn't work on the mobile view either. And I've also had troubles with it in the forum as well.

You misspelled your tags - they shouldn't start with an uppercase letter. It's center and not Center for example.

The thing is though it's literally never had that problem before. It only started acting up with the new preview.

Yes, because when it is parsed by the server and not by your browser in the live preview, it's a little more tolerant of errors (the other problem that I mentioned - failing to properly open and close tags hierarchically, for example - is also tolerated better in the final parsing). But it's still an error after all and should be avoided. It is not guaranteed that the server parsing accepts these errors forever, so it's always best to stick to the official documentation as closely as possible.
