Thanks for the feedback.

Is everyone still having problems?

Are there any pages that you cannot resize?
If so please indicate which page.

We are making the site more mobile friendly so there will be some changes.

The menu pages still seem a little scrunched but the text fields are really narrow when you go into a thread. On an android.

I'm using a windows phone skip n it used to be great, if I use the full site setting its not so bad, if I use mobile setting, just forget about it, the text in a post is in a straight line, so to read ye gotta keep scrolling across.

It would really help if you indicate what browsers you are using.

I see all working fine now in Firefox, Chrome and Opera. (on android and Win 7)

A screenshot would be helpful too.

Try not to resize the page when you get there and all should be the right size.

Yeah, cool on windows phone now skip, goodluck

Not perfect

That's the full site version, and not meant to be viewed on a phone.

You should be able to see it all unless you phone displays less that 500 px across (don't know of any new phones with such low rez)
Also resizing the page can cause that.

But it was perfect, on full mode, still prefer full mode, mobile's a nightmare

��this is mobile, never had these problems before skip.

 

[al70]

Try reading this

Al70, did I miss where you told us which browser you're using?

Can't be of any help otherwise.

How about trying a different one?

 

[al70]

Sorry skip, its a Nokia Lumia on internet explorer

Forget IE, it's obsolete and Microsoft is officially canning it as of July when they introduce their new browser. Shoulda told me that right away.

Only 1.7% of our users are using IE anymore.

Apparently IE doesn't play well with mobiles, hence its rapid decline.

Best alternatives:
Chrome (this might have an issue with microsoft OS on some phones)
Opera
Firefox

You will notice a big speed improvement with Chrome, not so much with the others, although our mobile version is 2xs faster than the full site.

Just remember, Chrome is a google product, so you can expect Google to monitor your browsing. (that's why I don't use it)

I thought it was just me. Will be glad when the glitches are fixed.
