Post Body

Description: Using Post Guidance to block a user from posting if the post body/title does **NOT** match a regex statement, is no longer working.

Within the individual Rule Creation Page page, the Live Previewer WILL show the rule working as expected when testing; however within the Rule List Page, the Live Previewer will NOT show the expected rule triggered when testing.

It is not an issue with the regex or priority level; as I have troubleshooted my rules & have not had any issues until recently.

Post Guidance Flow Example:

  1. Posts
  2. Regex
  3. ^[\s\S]{100,}
  4. Doesn't Match
  5. Post body only
  6. Block the user from submitting

The above Post Guidance rule Should block a user from submitting their post until their post body character limit reaches 100 characters or more.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Within the individual Rule Creation Page, test the rule; noting that the Live Previewer will confirm the rule to be working as expected.
  2. Within the Rule List Page, test the rule again; noting the Live Previewer will NOT show the rule to be triggering.
  3. On a non-mod account, create a post with less than 100 characters and note that the Post Guidance rule to not be triggering.
