Testing Tags allowed in the TPM composer. Please do NOT recommend. However, it would be good to have a quick list of allowed tags on the composer page.:
<ul><li>Unordered list item 1 (UL)</li>
<li>Unordered List Item 2 </li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Ordered List Item 1(OL)</li>
<li>Ordered List Item 2 </li>
</ol>

<span>SPAN tag</span>
<div>DIV tag</div>
<span>SPAN tag</span>

Might have been how I entered them into the composer... it would be nice though to get a list of tags supported.

What I am finding, is that you have to write your post in the body window first, then go back and highlight, one at a time, each item you want to quote, bold, or link, and hit the appropriate button at the top of the window. It's the only thing that seems to work.

Comments have to have HTML tags written in, and as Opus pointed out, a blog post requires that you type the text and then highlight it and hit the appropriate button. I don't know how you'd use other tags types...it's all new to me, so I'm just delighted to be a 49 year old fogey and be able to do anything other than using a word processor.

The blog entry function has a text editor installed which is not optional, you must use it and cannot use your own code, it inserts the code.
If you pre-compose your text in a utility like Word that puts in code, you have to strip it out again.
The software developers decided not to install the same text editor in omments, so there you can use html code and must do so if you want any formatting besides line and paragraph breaks.
The software developers also apparently expect users to continually explain this to each other rather than post instructions where everyone using the site can see them, or fix the discrepancy so it is easier to understand how to use this site. Everytime I see someone struggling with this, it's hard for me to decide whether to help, because it's enabling bad design, which has been pointed out to TPM Management numerous times by quite a few members since it installed this new software.
