not using chrome. I know some browsers can do it, but it should be an option on the actual forum. It was before the update.

 

i’m assuming this will be modified and is just a temp thing

maybe another option in browser settings to always use desktop sites.. maybe not... im sure it will be fixed soon

Don’t see any way to get off the mobile site, no button for full version anymore?

 

mobile version is actually pretty decent, but still missing information like people’s post counts, signatures, and the last poster of a thread. Will still use full site but don’t see a way to switch it.

I second this, I liked the ability to view the full website on my phone.

Ugh I hate change.  And this is a drastic one.

 

But I haven't noticed any 'problems' per say.  I haven't found My Subscriptions or the alternative yet, but I haven't dug very deep at all.

nice upgrade, seems light, faster.

with a 4 core xeon, there was not much excuses..

  Old format, I had a page and a half of threads that I was, and from what I have found from doing a lot of digging, still am, and the new format only shows the ones that I commented on this morning.  Also, I have started a few threads, and none of them are showing up in the "Content I Started," under "Activity."    Really a pain and time killer having to dig for threads that have the information about a problem or modification that I'm working on.

Which browser are you using?

Incredible you guys did not fix the media upload issue. It’s 2017, not only is a 1MB limit ridiculous, you don’t offer any way to resize the photo to fit. No modern phone takes photo’s at 1MB anymore, maybe 7-8 years ago. This by design does not allow us to upload photo’s from our phone unless we go through the pain in the butt process of resizing them. This is the only forum out of the dozen or so forums I subcribe to that does this. I’m dissapointed you did not address this in your forum refresh.

You've got a great point. Thanks for the feedback. We'll definitely be upping the limits. 

 

EDIT: How does a 5MB per image limit sound?

You can request the desktop version under settings in your mobile device and it should be served the full version.

Didn't work for Safari. I will download Chrome today and give it a shot.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll mark it as an issue to look into.

They are just doing it to save on the cost of server storage, which is fine even if it is way behind the times and not appropriate for the size and traffic of the forum; but....if you’re going to do that atleast have a system that resizes the image for you.

The new system does indeed resize images. I'm setting that up now. Your complaints should all be fixed by the end of the day.

Also, "My Gallery?"

 

Edit: NEVER MIND, found it, had to go dig thru my profile, no "shortcut," direct link, like old format.

We have to set up Tapatalk again. We will have that done tomorrow.

Thanks!  I was going to ask about this.  I tried multiple times and got errors.  Thought I would have locked my account out.

Too much bright white on the page background- why do websites always do this in a change over..........
