Where do we report issues with the new forum?

[Alex]

this is my biggest pet peave with the forum, we have not been able to find a fix for it

[AdamJ]

@popvulture @DeeDee85 we've been aware of it for a while and have looked in to multiple fixes, to no avail so far.

We don't want to make pagination the default, as by design the infinite scroll is meant to reflect more of a "news feed" type experience, as you get on Reddit for instance. However, Reddit doesn't have inline imagery, for this exact reason.

One solution floated was having images hidden by default with a "click to view" but this would impact the engagement, especially on image driven threads such as WAYWT etc.

I'm sorry we haven't found a full solution for it yet, but it's being worked on I assure you. Thank you for your patience, hope the pagination is an ok work around in the meantime. Once we've made significant development with Version 3 of the current platform I will post an update

[DeeDee85]

@AdamJ thanks for the update, the pagination option is much less stressful now that I know about it

[popvulture]

I appreciate the info @AdamJ — that all makes sense. I get the value of the news feed experience and am definitely into that, but I'm completely ok with doing the paginated version until something gets worked out. And absolutely no worries at all re: not finding a solution yet! This stuff goes way over my head, and I'm in awe that y'all pull off what you do. Thank you!

The blue bar is floating in the middle of the page when scrolling.

Safari on iPhone 15 pro. I didn’t see this problem yesterday.

Not so much an issue, but is there any way I can get my phone (android) to send notifications when I receive notifications on this forum?

[AdamJ]

I am fairly sure it's just email notifications, but I will do some testing today @T4920

[AdamJ]

We're in the early phases of testing NodeBB Version 3 behind the scenes and hopefully the image/post moving issue will be sorted. Early doors but encouraging signs.

In addition, we're planning a number of UI improvements, particularly on mobile. We've been on the new forum for just over a year now so time for a new lick of paint I reckon.

[AdamJ]

@T4920 We're working on this still

[mclaincausey]

I shifted to paginated mode on mobile (almost entirely the way I access) because the scrolling getting messed around as images loaded was maddening. I would suggest that the “latest post” on the turquoise bar should go to the bottom of a given page in this mode, since the pagination controls at the bottom already have the oldest/newest post controls.

Anyone have this pop up from time to time? I refreshed my browser and few times and still unable to load photos on threads or profile pics

[AdamJ]

@Fadez weird, I'll do some testing thanks for reporting

[ARNC]

Anyone else seeing this more than usual this weekend? Not sure if anything has changed behind the scenes.

[A Former User]

@ARNC i’m seeing this too! 3 or 4 times today

[goosehd]

It’s been reported to IT.

[ARNC]

@goosehd thanks!

[Twistlock]

Just for info, still getting that message infrequently. In addition, threads seem to load slower. Using mobile on Android.

[popvulture]

Been getting it as well

[SKT]

Same here

[AdamJ]

We reset the forum yesterday which we thought had solved the problem. Seemingly it has not, we'll keep looking in to it. Sorry for the delay
