:( Mobile version not working??

Floss

Can someone explain why I suddenly can't view the site on my Windows phone? On Wednesday 9/12 it was fine, Thursday it wasn't & since then I can't read anything on my phone without either scrolling along each line or by using a magnifying glass.

It's really difficult to support the site when changes happen without any reason. And it is very unlikely that I will actually read any response to this because I have other things to do with my time, rather than spend it trying to read on my phone asI have done for over 2 years.:(

Fermi you obviously don't usually read on a Windows phone or you would understand the viewing issue. Will illustrate for you when next on my laptop 💻

Screenshot is emulated Nokia Lumia 520, a Windows phone.

Does I think demonstrate the problem as shows you no longer see all the post on that size of display, so would have to scroll or zoom out to an absurd degree?

I also note that the same thing now occurs on most mobile resolutions (iPhone,S Galaxy/tab, iPad, etc), so there is something wrong with the mobile site on multiple platforms it seems? Not just on a Windows phone.

For example, this is how the front page of this board appeared a few weeks or months ago.




In contrast, taking a capture today gives.




The forum has not adapted to the smaller display, pushing some elements and much text off the side.

Yes, this is very annoying and preventing me from getting my daily forum fix! Hopefully the forum team will look at fixing this on Monday?

Anyone else having trouble with Safari on iPhone? Before it was optimised to the right size for browsing- but now it's like the message boxes have been spread making it difficult to read.

I'm having this problem, was working fine a few days ago. Seems to have now switched to desktop version and I can't quote or edit posts.

It's trying to adapt to screen size somewhat here, and not retaining the full desktop version. It's just not doing the job fully as it did before.

Thanks for quoting my post fermi - sorry I posted in the wrong bit, obviously still asleep, not sure why I posted there! But relieved it's not just me - problem occurred just after I restored my phone to factory settings! Will try and upload a picture of what I can see - but it's like trying to view desktop pages on a phone. Tried to revert to old forum but wouldn't let me :-(
