Created a bio for a new team

Weird thing is that when i test the code in notes it works fine, but when I open the team the first two blocks appear at the same time.
This then resolves itself after clicking on the various toggles.

What am I missing?
Cheers

Edited to add: Appears to have fixed itself!

Thank you for double-checking, that's reassuring.

BBCode is still largely a mystery to me. For instance, why are some of the titles at the top of their blocks and some are spaced down?

One of the least intuitive things is the handling of line breaks.
Basically whenever you use code, you should avoid them.

But because that would give your code a very nasty look you can emulate a line continuation by writing \ at the end of a line.

This way you can break the line optically without breaking it in code.

And as I said, avoid line breaks between code fragments. Or they will displace your text.

how did you do the colourshift on your text? is it just changing the font colour after a couple of letters?

Yeah, gave that a few tries, adding and removing line breaks and \ signs only seemed to make it worse. I think there is something off within the blocks.

After every letter.
It's a slightly tedious exercise, so I just use this

Copy the code into a note, turn it to public and repost it and I can tell you what's wrong.

Thank you mate, that would be very kind.
Think I did so here

I wish you had copied it without [bbcode] wrapping. Ok. Smile

Edit:
That better?

I just deleted a [/block] at the end of 'titles waiting to be read' section...

The padding didn't work properly so I figured you probably have too many of those.

I can't tell if that is really so but removing a block exit did make it display with the padding so, eh. Right?

You're a genius. Thank you so much.
