Have you ever been editing in Firefox and had the publish button disappear on you?  Well, it turns out that it's not actually ''disappearing''.  It just drops out of sight at certain zoom levels.

Wikia are aware of the issue, but until it's corrected, we advise that you simply use default zoom, or that you zoom in to a higher magnification ''than'' default.  It only occurs when you've zoomed out to a lower magnification than default. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 19:06: Mon 03 Sep 2012</span>

Where's my publish button?

Have you ever been editing in Firefox and had the publish button disappear on you? Well, it turns out that it's not actually disappearing. It just drops out of sight at certain zoom levels.

Wikia are aware of the issue, but until it's corrected, we advise that you simply use default zoom, or that you zoom in to a higher magnification than default. It only occurs when you've zoomed out to a lower magnification than default.

Again, this issue only affects Firefox. It's not replicable in Safari, Opera or Chrome. And, since Firefox has a crappy British English spell checker, anyway, the simplest solution is just to switch over to Safari or Chrome — both of which have decent spell checkers.
