It looks like it's working again now. Thank you for the speedy attention on this! :)

If anything gets weird again, I'll let you know. 

Yeah, unfortunately it doesn't seem fixed on my end... And it doesn't seem to matter what the tweet is, as long as it contains URLs and some combination of non-link words & hashtags. I've not been able to use your built-in post-a-tweet system either through the website dashboard or the Chrome extension for at least 24 hours now.

Since last night (and still today, I just tried), it will append additional a?a?'s to the end of a Youtube link, and when I try to backspace OR delete them, it simply adds several more. To the extreme of 2000+ characters extra before I just stopped and closed the window. 

Also, just now as a test, I tried to remove 2 of the 3 links, and just add a couple extra words or hashtags. If I add those words, and then delete them to try different ones, the character count doesn't go back down with the delete. So when I add a new/different word or hashtag, it simply continues adding characters to my tweet, even though I delete the previous words. So I end up with having to delete the majority of my tweet and still being over the 140 character limit.

I hope that made sense...

If I allow the Chrome extension to auto-compose a tweet based on the website I'm visiting, it seems fine. But if I then edit that auto-composed tweet OR I paste my already-composed tweet from Twitter in, with links, it messes up.


For reference, the tweet I'm currently trying to enter (which appears to be exactly 140 characters in Twitter) so I can keep track of link-clicks and such is (for the record, it still tells me this tweet is about 90 characters 'too long' in the RiteTag box):

Further, this is how it automatically appears when I paste the same above tweet into the Ritetag tweet box:

?a?a  "


As you can see, additional a?'s. AND this is what it looks like after I try to hit backspace on those extra a?'s about 4-5 times:

?a?a?a?a?a?a?a?a?a?  "

If I instead try to place the cursor before the extra a?'s and 'delete' them, this is what it looks like after I hit the delete key 4-5 times:

So... as you can see, this is kind of a problem that's rather difficult for me to work around. :)

I've only had a Ritetag account for a few days, but I've been really appreciating it. I was thrilled to get the email about updates yesterday indicating that there should be an even more extensive tweet-grading system that factors in more than just the individual hashtags... but if I can't actually use at all anymore... not so great. :)
