Has the dreaded apostrophe bug been sorted?

Nope, I've had problems recently when I forgot not to use it.

I believe it includes not being able to reply to a thread with an apostrophe in the title.

Yes, but you can edit the subject line when you post your reply. But this is very easy to forget to do.

Apparently there is an upgrade to the forum software that fixes this - but it is on the long list of things to do.

That's good to know. I would have guessed that changing the subject heading would have been more damaging.

Indeed. But it's a strange feature of the SMF software that you can edit the subject line of each post in a thread.

Yes you can (see above)

I fell for 'the curse' a couple of days ago.  X_X

(And got the 'Hacking attempt' message.)
