Hi datahell,
congratulations on version 5.5!
When creating a new article, if the SEO title contains an unacceptable character, when the admin clicks APPLY or SAVE, everything is deleted; is this normal behaviour?

Nothing is been deleted. When something required is missing or it is wrong the article cannot be saved. In this case you loose your changes and you go back to the add/edit form. This is valid for everything, not just for SEO title/articles. Just below the SEO title input text there is a button to check its validity before you click save. Always use that if you are not sure you have provided a valid SEO title. My recommendation is first to click the Suggest button, then change the suggested SEO title a bit if you want.

Hi datahell,
it's not the same behaviour for other fields. If an admin forgets to enter a TITLE or a SUBTITLE, nothing is lost. The article simply refuses to save and there is a tooltip notification to signal the problem, e.g. Please enter a subtitle. Nothing is lost. This only happens if the SEO title is invalid that everything is lost. Yes, in a perfect world, every admin would always remember to validate their SEO title, but people are humans and make mistakes. I humbly suggest that this behaviour could be changed if possible, so that it's the same as if someone forgets to enter a TITLE or SUBTITLE.
