New forum problems.

Forum wouldn’t let me log in on my iPhone, let me log in on my tablet and laptop.

Tried @OmgFrigginMike method but it still didn’t let me join the forum, instead it made me enter a username. Oddly enough when I typed my normal username in it said it was available. Even though I was logged in on my tablet. After typing in my user name it worked. So it’s fine 😂

PS @Itsfine they will change your username if you contact them. I had to do that when I rejoined since I no longer had access to my former email address I originally signed up with.

How do I PM someone? Can’t find it in the new format? I know @genareddog semt me a message from email notification, but can’t find it on the forum?

@cbuck , I've sent you 2 pm's, did you get them?

I’m on an iPad and it works the same way on my phone

Lindsey, if you do decide to look into this issue, which we would really appreciate, I did a bit of research and apparently it's a known issue with some ways to solve it. Here's what I found:

I found this which may explain the problem with navigation to unread posts in threads. tl;dr it looks like the forum is trying to jump to the latest post before the page has fully loaded.

Higher Logic Vanilla "jump to new posts" links can sometimes incorrectly land at the bottom of a page, rather than at the first unread post. This is typically caused by a race condition where the page attempts to scroll to the anchor link before all content, such as images or scripts, has finished loading. When the rest of the page content loads, it pushes the intended destination down. This bug is well-documented in online forums related to anchor links and page loading issues, and it is not unique to Higher Logic Vanilla.

Potential solutions

Implement custom JavaScript
For developers or administrators with the ability to add custom JavaScript, a common solution is to delay the scroll action until after the page has fully loaded. This involves waiting for the DOMContentLoaded event before executing the scroll. However, this is a more advanced solution and is only possible if your plan allows for custom code.

**Contact Higher Logic support
**Since this is a known issue, the best approach is often to contact Higher Logic's support team directly.
Provide support with details of the behavior, including which browser versions the issue occurs on.
The support team may be able to enable a specific addon or adjust settings on the backend to resolve the problem.
This is especially important if the issue is a bug affecting the core platform, as it may require a fix that only the vendor can apply.

Okay, is it just me, or is this all goofed up now?

the interaction icons are all different now. It also seems to take me to page 1 of any thread I go to.

@thecigarchick

I agree with Mike and some other guys. When I click on a thread, it takes me to the very first page. It's because I have it sorted by oldest. I can sort by newest, but it then the conversation is in reverse order of how it happened.

Also the text box is defaulting to paragraph instead of line break, which is annoying and probably is something I'm going to have to learn to live with. I'm just going to have to get used to hitting the enter button once instead of twice for a new paragraph

.

Also when I I click in the box to add a reply to the thread, and I'm using Chrome and Android in the mobile view, and I'm using speech to text, it will stop recording after my first two words.

If it does continueIf it does continue to record my speech to text after the first couple of words, it repeats the first couple of words twice and keeps going as you can see in this sentence.

Deskdesktop mode seems to work better for me, but very hard to use on a cell phone.

Replies replies with quotes seems to look like it's in the ancient 2012 style. Replying to a post in a thread shows the reply nested which is cool.

TheThe picture interface is pretty cool for adding pictures.
