Question template in homework forums

In summary, the conversation discusses the issue of a repetitive question template appearing when using the "Preview Post" button in the homework/coursework forum. Despite it being a nuisance, there are no plans to fix it as it is a simple template hack that the speaker does not want to escalate in complexity. The solution suggested is to simply delete the redundant template before saving the message.

Good afternoon,

In every homework/coursework forum, the page for "Post New Thread" presents a question template for being used.
The problem is that, everytime one clicks the "Preview Post" button, the same template gets repeated at the end of the message and one has to erase it every time when generating a preview of the message to be sent.

Thank you in advance.

I understand it's a bit of a nuisance, but we don't have any plans on fixing it. Right now it's a simple template hack and I would rather not escalate it's complexity.

When one previews - just deleted the redundant template(s) before saving.
