Text editor update. Please fix my tables.

Not sure if I should post this here, but I'm apparently not allowed to post on the regular forums despite being a paying customer. And this was originally posted on the subreddit, but I was informed that apparently the roll20 crew weren't likely to see it there.  I've noticed that the new text editor update that occurred recently changed a lot of stuff and I'm honestly really frustrated with how many fixes I'll have to deal with. For context, I've created a players handbook through linking handouts together and meticulously typing (by hand) the entire PHB and Xanathars Guide. So now for your update:  1. Hyperlinks are no longer purple, which makes it impossible to know they're hyperlinked till you click. My only option now is to go through the thousands of handouts I made to re-color the hyperlinks so they stand out. This is stupid. The hyperlinks should be a default color, different from regular text. My players now have to drag their mouse over every word to see what's linked and what isn't. 2. Your update seems to have deleted all of my tables. Ever table I inserted into a handout is now gone. Every. Single. One. All the text is still there, but none of it is formatted correctly. The hours of work on random treasure tables alone is beyond infuriating.  This is really why I'm writing this post, to tell you that you've screwed up my entire handout system and now my players have to deal with it. I don't understand how on earth you thought this would be a good idea. Your old text system was buggy as hell, but now you've just caused a different problem. I'm a paying user on your site so I shouldn't be blindsided by huge changes like this. I literally log in every day to tweak things for my upcoming sessions. I love your site and I'm not really going to leave yet because I've sunk so many hours into building my handout system. But if your updates keep ruining the work I've put in then there's no reason to stick around.

Hi Thomas. I know that's frustrating on multiple levels. What happens when you try to post on the Roll20 Bugs &amp; Technical Issues forum? Why do you feel you aren't able to post on the regular forums; you should be able to? I checked and your account does not appear to be banned or limited from posting. Please re-post your findings about the Text Editor in the official Bug Thread so that this can be addressed by the Roll20 Team, here: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6526321/text-editor-update-bug-report-thread/?pagenum=1" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6526321/text-editor-update-bug-report-thread/?pagenum=1</a> Thanks and sorry for needing to send you to another place.
Sure, got it. I'll post there. Seems like the forum I was trying to post to is reserved for either Pro members or actual Roll20 Moderators? The Announcement forum?&nbsp;

Thomas G. said: Sure, got it. I'll post there. Seems like the forum I was trying to post to is reserved for either Pro members or actual Roll20 Moderators? The Announcement forum?&nbsp; Got ya. The Announcements forum is only for the Roll20 Team and those threads are usually locked. Other forums that are visible should be available to all. There is a Pro forum also, for Pro users, but I think that it should only show up for Pro users. Specific Use Questions; and Bugs Reports &amp; Technical Issues; are open subforums for this kind of question if you don't want to spend a Vote on a Suggestion for it.
