    How do I? / This isn't working etc - part 2

    The last thread got deleted by mistake, so I’ve had to start a new one

    John , I was just wondering, in the 'phone-version', would it be easy to adjust the size of those colored info-tag-blocks (like "SMF supporter" etc)? I don't know how other people think about it, but they take quite a lot of space on the phone screen, I feel like I'm swiping a lot more vertical then before. It's great thumb-practice tough, and probably not a priority right now, just saying. Cheers

      It's something that I've noticed too. Makes everything feel disjointed as there can often be more header than post!

      I just turn my phone or tablet on its side, but yes I agree that they are rather imposing on a mobile device.

        I'm still working my way around and finding it a bit different. I'm no computer techie and it will take a little time before I'm back in the swing of it all. The big question I have is, what happened to our PM's to other members? My in and out box is empty and I can't find anything from before. The first few days they were there and now they are gone...TIA

          Someone reported he had pms that wasn't his, I asked support to delete all users pms but for some reason before they did they vanished, it might have been me doing a bit of cleaning up although I can't remember doing anything with them

            Could we not just drop them and have our 'badge' Just as text like you have done for admin and mods. Its Eye candy yes but if it gets in the way....
            I was going to mention the Admin and Mods having both the text badge and the icon thing which is overkill.
            Administrator and Moderators in bold red. Supporters in Bold Blue. Job done.

              That sounds so easy, but for some reason it's not, as supporters have 2 groups, Registered user (primary) and SMF Supporter (secondary) it seems to only want to take the title from the primary group, but that does seem the better option, I will just have to get it to work

            Found it and change it, some people will have 2 but that's only until I've finished moving everyone to the new usergroup

              Just a bit of feedback John, I'm finding the forum quite slow. Not sure if that's because stuff is happening in the background, but noticeably laggier than the old site.

                The only thing I've found slow is when using the new topics button, is it the whole forum for you?

                Something I noticed on the phone version : when you make a long post, and you 'review' it in stead of 'posting' it, you slide the post a little bit 'up' with your finger to read the lower text, but then on releasing my finger (to stop the sliding and reading further) it slides valiantly to the bottom of the post... (and vice versa)

                Again, not a big deal nor high priority, but just reporting it... cheers

                  I don’t think there is anything I can do about that.

                        Are you using a bookmark to come back to the site? If so it’s not working because you have the old url in, update it to the new one.
