One thing I've changed just now is the time between likes. The reason for the two minute delay was we saw some people abusing it (you don't want to know how, but basically it was to make themselves look popular ) However, I was getting sick of waiting two minutes to like very good posts, so I've reduced the time down to two seconds.

We'll keep an eye on like spamming (yes, there is such a thing!)

2 min hard limit is too much, there are always few consecutive posts you'd wish to like. You could still keep that limit but as an average. E.g. 30 likes per hour, spaced however you'd like in that 60min window.

I would value a feature that collapsed or hid all posts that didn't contain pictures or video.

Sometimes on a discussion thread there is reference to images back in the thread. I would like to scan back through just the posts with images and videos more quickly, instead of wading backwards through 20 pages.

I wish there was a Timeline feature (may have already been mentioned on this thread?) The one good thing that the dreaded Tapatalk has is that.

As a rule, I read this forum using the Unread filter, and I'm sure that's how mode do it as well. However, if - after I read a thread - I want to go back to it it's a real pain on the website because to refind it I have to drill down through the forum and hope I can remember what sub (sub) group the thread was in.

That's the very reason I asked for a bookmark feature.

Still hoping for the ability to like on the mobile forum.

I rarely use the full site.

*also would be great if you could see the likes on mobile.

Has the time delay between forum post likes been dropped? I seem to be able to like at will.

Speaking of things I like, I find the back-to-top button to be very useful, and would be sad to see it go.

I’m honestly curious here. Why not press the home key, or the top menu on a mobile device?

Lookee here... NSF with Firefox Dark addon

The other forum I follow that uses this forum software has this link prominant on the top, and it's my most-used feature. Not having something similar here makes it MUCH harder for me to follow discussions in which I'm participating.

In the 1st post of this thread, Chris mentions it has been reduced to 2 seconds.

I had problems logging in with Microsoft Edge on iOS with the mobile site. I got an error message indicating my session expired. Workaround that worked for me: switch to full site, login, and then switch to mobile site.

Currently I don't get the "mobile" view when visiting the forums from my phone using Firefox 58.0 on Android 7.0.

With Chrome on the same phone everything is fine.

We need to get on with that. Will remind Mark when I tell him to buy in as many Server Hamsters he can find at the pet shop for the Falcon Heavy launch.

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #33 on:** 02/01/2018 07:38 pm »

Mark's been installing more server hamster tricks into the forum to help us (try to) survive Falcon Heavy. Let us know if you see anything off-nominal since a few hours ago. I've done a check, and all now seems to be good, but I might have missed something.

There is a link to the mobile site at the very bottom of the page, try that.

For some reason all colours are black in Safari?

red
white
grey

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #36 on:** 02/02/2018 08:06 am »

To add to the list, because it's unlikely those with the issue will be able to post it, but....

Session Verification Error. Obviously most people don't have this as the forum is active, but some overnight e-mails to me note it. Letting you know I've passed it on to Mark and I'll report back when fixed or advice on how to solve locally is forthcoming.

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #37 on:** 02/02/2018 08:28 am »

This issue has now been resolved by Mark

To all: A firm fix may result in everyone logged in being logged out in the next hour (a lot of people stay logged in all the time, so don't worry, this is on purpose). Any issues when you can't login, thus can't post an issue here, always e-mail me [email protected]

Happening on Firefox on my PC too. Give away is when editting a post the colour drop-down pick list no longer appears with all the other text formatting icons. So it appears that colour is switched-off/disabled?

Relaying another bug found for the words coloring on this forum....

The color codes are not working for me. Anyone else with the same problem?
