It seems to be an issue with the added LaTeX functionality: $ is a LaTeX delimiter.
The LaTeX interpreter seems to jump in even when not called for. Escaping by \$ should help: \$. But this shows the dollar sign inluding the backslash :(
We may run into issues with a few other characters, too, considered to be special by LaTeX:

The equation editor should not interfere with normal text. It should only be activated when called for by the f(x) button.

Those other charcters seem to work fine:
&abc
%abc
$abc
#abc
_abc
{abc
}abc
but then again the dollar sign doesn't cause issue in this simple test either.

And then it works here, too, without escaping:

Very strange behaviour.

Hello,

Lets see if a dollar sign with a space will work.
$ 100
$100
$100,20

Hello,

@eerob , the links in the Project Discussions forum still link to electronics point.
This leads now to error messages.

And a week later we were sent a nice announcement about the forums merging but still no Project Logs.

I really can’t see how EP has merged with maker pro. No merging has taken place other than a website name change. If this is true, you will lose members. I can’t for the life of me see the point. EP once merged with AAC, is this still a thing? Or has that gone too?.

Hello,

Did you also get mails, you never asked for?
I did not aks for mails from maker.pro.
I already UNSUBSCIBED them.
There should be an OPT-IN in stead of an OPT-OUT.

Unless there is some obvious reason, wondering why my post from earlier today didn't get shown.
I can see it if I look at "my content" but it doen't appear in new posts.
No problem for now as I sort of jumped the gun and I sorted it myself, but like I said before, start changing things for no reason and things go belly-up.

Could be 'me' and the settings I chose but I don't see post ranking or numbers of likes under the members icons any more. Is this a new thing, fault or a setting I've missed?

I think what you are looking for appears when you mouse over the member's name or avatar pic.

Hello,

I noticed that on the bottom of the page in the "maker pro retro" style, there are some statistics shown:

You can switch from style in your profile, in the section preferences.
