@babyknight Click on the pencil here:
And you will see loads of recent posts...
Indeed... just that you then have to click on each of them to see the post and then click back to go back to the list of new posts, whereas on the old forum the recent posts loaded directly and you could just scroll down and read them all. that was nice.
But like everything that changes, it just takes time to get used to a new way of doing things and i am sure we all will!

Text is very jittery under my thumb when scrolling and trying to read. Very annoying to lose my place and refind it constantly.
Also 2 bars at the top and 1 at the bottom constantly moving is also very annoying.
The jittery text is really a deal breaker as I feel it's migraine inducing as well as extremely frustrating.
It's like trying to read with 3 strobe lights in your face and the book is moving.
Can't see what I'm typing either. Have to constantly get rid of keyboard to see what I'm typing or correct anything.
I was going to send @AdamJ a chat message about these issues but the typing box is so small there's no way to see what I'm typing.
I'm on android smartphone using Firefox browser. I tried desktop site and mobile site settings. Both act the same.

@hairydangler thanks for the feedback, we will look in to these issues

this new forum is awesome! finally we can change our username!
@crankyfart - but why would you ever want to change such an epic username?
-
I would like to use the "unread topics" page as more than an all or nothing page if possible. is there a way to add a "remove" button to each post so you can filter the ones you want to click into and remove the ones you don't? I could then leave myself with a list of the 6-10 pages I want to look into. I know that new posts continue to populate on that page, but i wanted to type this thought out anyhow.
-
Do you mean like this? So if you hover of the avatar/profile image of the post, you can tick it. For example, if you want to select every For Sale thread. Once you're happy with what you've marked you can hit 'Mark as Read' this will then clear the threads you've selected.
-
Oh boy, would have never clicked on the Avatar!
Great possibilities to select. There is a lot to learn new.@AdamJ But why is it the Avatar of the founder of the thread. Why not the person who last posted. Missing this information when scrolling through new posts on my phone!
-
exactly! I thought the green check was to follow or get notifications for that specific thread.
you probably could have guessed @AdamJ, but I do NOT RTFM in most situations.
-
@Aetas Haha sorry, I got myself in a twist and had no unread posts to test on. If you click anywhere in the area highlighted red, when you're looking at the UNREAD POSTS view, you should get taken to the post in question.
@jordanscollected No problem at all, it's a learning curve for everyone. I've just had the benefit of using it for the last 6 months

That’s working perfect on my IPad. But on my phone it looks like this:
There is no information who posted and the Avatar is the founder of thread.

If I turn my iPhone horizontal all is good.
