To echo an earlier request, it would be good if when you click on a topic you were taken to the first unread post on that topic. This would save trawling through the topic from post 1 until you reach a post you don't recognise.
Otherwise, operationally, it's seems to be working very well.
Thanks

If not the above - duplicating the page selector drop down at the top would speed up navigating to the end of a multi page, picture laden, thread Smile

One strange thing that's happening is some pictures are showing at a large size and forcing the post text to be tiny and displaced .... Like this :

I don't seen to be able to send pm's from the mobile site due to a glitch :

It doesn't show a subject field and won't let me send a message because of that - even where I am replying to a PM, where I presume the subject is pre-populated, it refuses the send stating a subject is required.

Is that anything you could help with please ?

This is caused by photos being embedded from Photobucket, their code forces the photos at full size on the Def2 mobile site Big Cry Evil or Very Mad

Right I have applied the update, which hopefully fixes the following:

  • PMs now functional Mr. Green
  • "Home" option in menu
  • Default link for threads/search results/new posts etc is to first unread post, or if all read then very newest post
  • Page buttons and menu at top as well
  • Advert types now show up for FS&W forum
  • Various other little fixes


Coming next:

  • First page/last page in page button bar
  • Profile view
  • Signups & polls

Sounds like excellent progress Martin - thank you for listening and providing... Bow down

Personally, I still prefer the non-mobile experience on my iPhone/iPad, but appreciate this is not everyone's cuppa... Mr. Green  Rog... Mr. Green

One thing I notice on the mobile site which would be quite good on the main site would be 'Active Threads'? Good stuff, although all I do now is walk around glued to my phone like a teenager... Shocked Defender Puma 2.2 XS 90

Way too many racing bikes.

Can't seem to find a way to add photos in private messaging, it either the option isn't yet available or not easy to find. Other than that I like the design and layout.

Hi, thanks for the feedback.

Photo uploads aren't implemented yet on the mobile site, they are on the list to do (see first post!) Smile  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Just got auto directed to the mobile site on my iPhone.

I really dislike it! A lot. It is grey and dull looking and you can see the dates and times of updated posts.

I dislike most mobile versions of full websites I use frequently.

Please can we have a button to opt to take us to the desktop version?? Pretty please, I'll luv ya forever! Our blog - http://landytravels.com/
