Am I ever going to be able to post hotlinks and images using an android phone? Use the text editing tool? Select a smilie from the list? You know - like we could two years ago.

Yeah but I am not the developer of this software.
For security reasons I must install this new versions, sorry.
Many people don't like my updates/work on this website but I can not otherwise.

If desired, I would only host this website and install updates to the server OS (Ubuntu).
But then someone else must look after this website (messageboard and mainpage).
Your choise!

Andreas. when I was using the Mobile Version on my tablet last night and I posted something I got this:

Then there&#39;s everything else in the film...<br />

Time travel plot holes are the most boring things to debate; unless one thrives off endlessly anal pursuits.<br />

No, they&#39;re the best possible thing to debate! As we don&#39;t know what the actual rules would be, everyone has his own understanding of cause and effect...<br />

Can you fix it so that when I select the Mobile Version on my Tablet it doesnt go to the Mobile Version on my desktop?

Please.

[Jason LeBlanc]

If you select the Mobile Version from the "Change Theme" dropdown, then it will remember that as your preference whereever you log in from.

Personally for me, when I log in from any desktop it knows I prefer "delicate", but when I log in from my phone, it defaults to the mobile view because it recognizes my phone as a mobile device. You must not have your tablet set up to identify itself as a mobile device.

[Stefancos]

Before the MB update it went automatically to the Mobile version.

[Quint]

Yeah an iPad and a phone defaults to mobile view every time you close the window, but Jason is there not a cookie or option which can be enabled at your end which stops that from happening? Other sites seem to have a feature which keeps user selected view preferences permanent. If you're on a tablet, you don't want see the mobile view, ever. As of now, both my handheld devices (Android and Apple) default to mobile version. Why Steef is having problems I do not know.

As for the the "like" feature, I personally think it's more interesting when you can 'pos' and 'neg' anonymously. But there are downsides to both setups.

[Jason LeBlanc]

It still works perfectly on my phone. Try completely closing down your browser session on your tablet (close every tab) and then going back into the site. That works for me when I purposely go to the desktop site from my phone - I can't reset things back to functioning normally until I completely close every tab in my browser.

[Stefancos]

testing.

Downloaded Dolphin HD browser and set it to function as an iPad....

[stewdog1]

Speaking of mobile version, does this site work with TapaTalk?

[Jason LeBlanc]

Andreas is working on installing tapatalk now, I believe.

[Stefancos]

Why do i always freak out when i see stewdogs pic?

Strange. If I set my browser to "iPad" then it goes to the mobile version as a default. On the Android setting it goes to the full version, which doesn't work well...

Well, Lee will have something to boast about...

[stewdog1]

That is awesome news.

Think of it as you being Picard in Nemesis.

[Jason LeBlanc]

This is the current list of browsers that will default to the mobile view if detected (the checked off ones)

[Stefancos]

The Samsung browser does NOT go straight to the mobile version Jason.

Think of it as you being Picard in Nemesis.

Any chance you can do another pic?

[Jason LeBlanc]

Well, then that'st he list that SHOULD

It's the only option I have for this kind of stuff in the admin control panel.

I'll see what I can do.

I originally did it as a joke then forgot about it.

As always Andreas, your continued efforts are very much appreciated. Many thanks. But what is wrong with the FAR more flexible and compatible IP. Board 3.1.2? Let's face it Andreas: the removal of very useful, no, indispensable features in subsequent builds is head scratching to say the least.

A good browser, but I prefer Boat Browser - or at least I did before the recent update - which borked it. Definitely worth waiting for the fix, though. It's the best mobile Safari clone on the market.

[Stefancos]

It seems OK. I tried Firefox first, but its too fidly.

A mobile browser should be simple and easy to use.

On my Desktop I always have the Delicate Theme. I was flipping back and forth between skins, the standard theme is really bland.

[Jason LeBlanc]

I also always use Delicate. The default one is terrible

[Ricard]

You mean you don't like it, right?

It's my favorite theme by far.

[Jason LeBlanc]

Yea, I'm not personally a fan of the default one. Too much white, and the white is too bright. I might install a few more skins sometime. I do like Delicate quite a bit. I even modified to to show everyone's "Join Date" under their avatars.

[Stefancos]

The default one is boring and unappealing. Unworthy of John Williams!

[Chaac]

I never saw the others, I'll take a look.

[Joey]

A spider just crawled across the screen. I killed it so you don't have to do anything Andreas. That's one dead bug.

[Koray Savas]

I think I've been on Delicate ever since the site went live after the Chapple era.

[Faleel]

I stick with Simple Blue.

[Jason LeBlanc]

I'll install some more, nothing wrong with having options!

Here is a list people can browse, feel free to suggest some to me:

Security!!! Invisionpower (Developer of this messageboard) create only bugfix/patches for the newest version of there software.
I will install TapaTalk in the next days, hope this "fix" the most problems with our mobile users. Or use this app for IPhone/IPad:

(sorry not the best one)

[Quint]

Thanks again, and thanks for the correspondence .

[Andreas]

Hello,

sorry for the delay:
Will install TapaTalk in the next 48h.

There seems to be a bug with notifications (the little red no.1 on the envelope icon). For the past few days I've not been receiving notifications when being PM'd and so after scratching my head I decided to look at my settings, where I saw I had over 250 notifications going back ages. But when I tick them all and click the "delete selected" button (like you would emails) it only seems to be deleting one at a time! I've cleared a few and straight away I noticed I'm receiving pm notifications again - so there must be a limit as to how many one can have and I'd obviously reached it.

The delete selected option needs fixing asap because otherwise it'd take forever to go through each one by one, deleting them. I'll delete a few more, but it won't be long before it stops notifying me again.

[Ren]

You getting too many pm's Lee? ;-)

[Quint]

Yes Ren. You wouldn't know anything about that, would you...

[Ren]

(looking over my shoulder) who me?

[Quint]

*whistles*

[Jason LeBlanc]

This looks wrong to me

Andreas, this problem still persists...

[Andreas]

I can not reproduce the problem locally.

Test it with my working pc (Internet Explorer 9.X, Firefox 13.0)
Test it with my home pc (Internet Explorer 9.X, Firefox 10.X)

See only one "Forums" button.

Did you delete the complete local IE/Firefox/Opera/... cache?
Browser name and version?
