Title: Mobile friendly display Post by: Benedict on April 07, 2022, 02:42:32 PM Hello Shin, I appreciate all that you do here for everyone. I am wondering if you can enable some setting that makes the forum more readable on mobile devices. I obviously don't want to burden you with unnecessary work but I think it would be advantageous for those of us who primarily visit the site from phones to be able to read the text on the posts without having to zoom in and scroll left to right.
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 08, 2022, 01:01:12 AM It may increase posting as well.
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Shin on April 08, 2022, 09:03:01 AM What mobile devices are you using? Is the text too small if you zoom out, so you scroll right and left?
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 08, 2022, 09:32:52 AM Hi Shin, I'm using an android smartphone. Perhaps the 4th one since you started this forum, and it's been the same.
Another simple machines forum I visited has a more recent version of sms and it is fine. Would upgrading be costly ? Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Shin on April 08, 2022, 12:34:55 PM It's not a simple matter to upgrade the forum software itself, I doubt it will ever happen.
I am however looking into other solutions. Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Benedict on April 08, 2022, 12:50:07 PM What mobile devices are you using? Is the text too small if you zoom out, so you scroll right and left? I am also using an android device.It's not a simple matter to upgrade the forum software itself, I doubt it will ever happen. God willing you will be able to find a solution :)I am however looking into other solutions. Maybe even just an option to increase the text size while reading a post. Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 09, 2022, 12:09:59 PM No worries Shin, I'll look into options on my end.
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 17, 2022, 10:24:02 PM I tried something on my phone.
I selected a random post and copied it, then pasted it in the reply box. It compressed it and it's much easier to read ! With no need of zooming or scrolling. Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Shin on April 17, 2022, 10:54:29 PM Thanks for that info Charles, that helps!
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 18, 2022, 10:20:24 AM Quite welcome Shin !
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 23, 2022, 02:19:50 PM Shin, I'm trying to answer your pm, but after sending the reply it's not showing in my outbox.
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Shin on April 23, 2022, 06:14:37 PM That's surprising, I see your message Charles, no worries.
Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Benedict on April 23, 2022, 11:15:07 PM Shin, I'm trying to answer your pm, but after sending the reply it's not showing in my outbox. That's because you only have the opportunity to save it to the outbox by checking a box before you send it. (An odd design idea from my point of view)Title: Re: Mobile friendly display Post by: Charles on April 24, 2022, 08:56:47 AM Ok, thanks. Good to know.
