Maybe read the known issues before reposting something that is within the first 10 lines of the first post?

I did. I was agreeing with the poster!

New format is horrendous on mobile, please tell me there's a CSS file to be uploaded or something. Anything but this.

Jesus, it's bad.

Yeah sorry to moan but I agree.

PC desktop version is fine however.

On mobile could you please add page navigation buttons to top of thread not just the bottom please?

Also on both desktop and mobile, the inability to go to the main forum from a subforum using the clickable forum name is very annoying. It just stops of 'Life' or 'Hardware'. Having the click on the forums button / ham burger menu -> forums is a pain.

 

[Vanquish-Storm]

Imagination I'm afraid. All posts were backed up after the forums went down and moved over.

No bother must be the old age

Not sure if its been mentioned already, but on Mobile, alongside the format being horrible, it looks like the ability to see the number of pages is available under the title of the thread so its not easy to go to the latest page. Also when you click into a thread, you have to scroll to the bottom to go to the last page instead of having a page count at the top like on the desktop webpage.

Love the green !

Feels weird seeing avatars! I normally use mobile like a pleb

Is there any way to make the OCUK logo and icons at top of page bigger on mobile? Generally it’s feeling a refresh of a familiar place which I guess was a big part of the brief.

I pretty much browse exclusively on mobile and I would say my only gripe is fonts and logos and some navigation stuff feels a bit small. I’m also missing page numbers on the thread title which I used a lot. Seems like opening a thread is a bit sketchy as to whether it starts on page 1 or the last page.

Overall I like it. I’m assuming that sending trust messages is now removed and we just use the conversation function?

I’m using default settings on Safari.

No idea what Avatar I even have, turned them off years ago.

No page numbers/last page option on mobile site from forum list?

Doesnt show who posted last either, but anoying, on the 30 odd pages on this thread I am sure its been mentioned numerous times though.

already noted.

Currently splitting the list of bugs etc in the first post into what are general/desktop ones, and what are mobile specific to make it easier to see what's been noted

 

[manic111]

Looks great! I'm only missing the breadcrumbs

 

[Broken Hope]

Would love a setting when clicking on a thread to go to the last post vs the last unread.

 

[BUDFORCE]

I will say one thing though.

A competitor based in Manchester (well I guess not really a competitor these days) had quite a good forum and community going.

Then they "upgraded" their forums. They went down for 2 weeks, when they came back, were completely unusable, and completely killed off the entire community, in about a month.

So, to be fair to OCUK, it could be worse

I have no idea who Ross Geller is but your avatar is Christopher Moltisanti.

example of wysiwyg editor failure V

type abcd <cr> efgh
highlight text abcd , hit italic button,
cursor just moves to end of text , without converting abcd into italics (as it used to);
I then typed ijkl which appear in italics and show where cursor now is.
