Forum Upgrade - Any Issues?

/ Forum Upgrade - Any Issues? #62  
In the iPad/iPhone app the participated tab in the current section now only contains threads that I started. Used to show threads I posted in...

I couldn't get logged on with the iPad at all, I was a guest only, kept getting; " DENIED, You don't have permission"

Hard on my eyes, add some background color.

Using an iPad with all updates installed, latest version of TBN..

1) I like the new signature info at the bottom of each post. It was not available before to my knowledge.

2) I also like that I can now find out where the poster is located. I would like to see that info where the signature info is rather than having to click on the members icon in their posts and then going to another page. Also, the page that shows the location, etc. has a lot of white space, perhaps 1/3 of the page, and to see the member's info requires scrolling within a small part of that page. But I would really like to see the poster's location on the title bar of each post, perhaps under or next to the poster's screen name.

3) I haven't yet figured out how to post directly to the topic. It used to be that I would click the arrow icon in the upper right of the screen. To make this post I replied to another post (by double tapping in the text area of the post, not on the title bar of that post) and then deleting all the quoted text.

4) Muli-quoting no longer appears to work. Or at least I haven't figured out how to do it yet... Most likely it will work when the posting bug is fixed.

5) The iPad app is GREAT!!!

Using my iPhone with all updates installed, latest version of TBN.

6) Item 1) works great!

7) Item 2) works flawlessly on the iPhone which may be why it doesn't work on the iPad's much larger screen. No doubt it is not an easy task to make it work on each platform.

8) Item 3) works on the iPhone like it always has which was just fine. It worked the same way on the iPad before but not now.

9) Item 4) multi-quoting works fine on the iPhone.

10) The iPhone app is GREAT!!!

Ps. On the iPad (the newest model) the arrow icon in the top right of the screen just has: Refresh Page and the Edit, Reply, etc. buttons don't appear when I tap the title bar of an individual post. Tapping the title bar brings up only a Share button. I am posting this from my iPhone app because I cannot edit my post using my iPad.

Ok, on the iPad I tap on the text of a post, that takes me to another window that has the text of the post. Then I tap on the arrow button in the upper right of the screen and am then taken to a third screen where I can reply to a post or edit my post. That third page has the Advanced button letting me post a link, photo, etc.

The iPhone app is GREAT!!! The iPad app needs a bit of tuning...

Edit: I logged in on my iPad (a log-in/register banner about one centimeter high overlaid on the bottom thread on my screen just spontaneously appeared) and now the Reply to Thread, etc. work! I could post before using the method described above but after logging in it works the way it should.

Using the iPhone app, I REALLY LIKE the changes. I think you guys (Admin) have covered all my wants previously communicated to you.

The only problem I have - in my current "participated" area - I have 4 threads that constantly show that there is an unread post (thread header is bold). I open the thread and no new posts. Thread header grays out.....until I return and the same 4 threads are bold again - with no new posts. It's minor, but a bug.

It could be happening in other areas, but I am not sure.

Edit - I don't have threads I posted to, only ones I started in my current participated area. FYI.

Reply to thread button (lower left) is broke. Had to use reply with quote for this.

It's broke for me as well. The only one that works is the top one.

As has been mentioned earlier, it's very bright. My eyes actually hurt. I'll be back once it's fixed, as I'm getting a headache. Good job so far and good luck with the "to do list".

My Spell Check icon does not seem to be working. Perhaps it is my fault, but I am doing everything in regards to the Spell Check exactly as I did before.

Completely gone (as is quick-reply).
Edit, make that completely non-functional and the quick reply button is gone

Reply to thread works again by going to the bottom edge, quick reply is still MIA.

iPhone app

Seems like previously we could have a forum open, and use the search bar at the top of that forum to search that specific forum. Now it's a global search feature which searches ALL forums. FYI

I know the app is a third party vendor - but would love to have smilies!!!!

Aside from the "Reply to Thread" issue, it looks pretty good.

The one thing I miss is the old "smiles" list. I see some of them are still there, but there are a lot of new ones. Any chance we could get the old smiles back? Similar to the list on LMF?

The smileys have never worked well on my mobile devices. Hit and miss at best. And if I use the numeral eight followed by a closed parentheses I get a smiley face wearing sunglasses. I realize mobile users are a small minority of users so I appreciate that some things just can't easily be made to work.
