Something's broken the ability to preview PMs. The edit window shows up, but the preview doesn't. This makes the preview feature completely useless. (In fact, I can't even view the PM I just sent, it's blank. I hope Sui can read it )
My theory is that our code that used to remove the ads is starting to work in ways it wasn't intended, because the same thing happens on page 22 of PNF, but you can see it for a split second before it disappears.
Update: It's YouTube video embeds that are doing it!

Did your PM even contain a message or was it just a YouTube embed? And yeah, I've known about it for a few days. This was following an error where the site was just displaying a blank page with a number and a rotating "loading" symbol (kinda like Firefox's.)
No idea what broke or how to fix it, so yeah. I could try disabling the script that we had to disable ads and see if that changes something...

It had text but included a video. My PC loaded the PM way too fast, but I was able to load the PM on my phone and hit the stop button before it finished loading (which would have removed everything) then clicked the edit button and fixed it, so problem solved, there.
It's a rather catastrophic bug when it happens though, so yeah I'd suggest disabling that script. Doesn't seem to do its intended purpose anymore, anyway.

Do you know how to disable it, Taiyz? I wish I was better at these kind of things :/

I disabled it. Under Modules, Javascript code management.
Test:
Seems to be working.
