Hello there!
This has been discussed in the iPod touch thread, but in case you didn't know, I thought I'd post it again. Anyway...
Careful work featuring myself and the good Doctor Gaywood have resulted in a mobile-friendly version of your favourite web forum.

As a side-effect, it's less colourful and shouty than the main forum, so people at work who have to deal with prying eyes may want to use it, too.

Top work, gents.

I didn't do much more than eyeball it, and from where I stood it didn't look careful. "Frenzied hacking" would be more accurate

It's aces though. I'm really glad to have this.

This is very very cool. Thanking you guys.

Be aware that you can click on the icon next to the post title (like this one

) to go to the first unread post.
You can do that on this forum, too.

My missus just got a 5800, I'm quite jealous of it, lovely phone.

Is TheVision some sort of praise bot?

If I had one small request (which I do) it would be this (which it is): Please make the icon for "Last unread post" bigger so it's easier to poke with my sausage fingers on my 5800.

This one:

Is that not close enough?

DavPaz · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 38697

Please ignore. I fail at reading things apparently

Grim... · **Posted:** Thu Mar 12, 2009 13:50

There is a slight difference. Pressing the folder icon (on the left) will take you to your last unread post, or to the top of the last page if you are up to date. Pressing the little icon you refer to takes you to the last unread post, or to the bottom of the last page.
If you want, I can fiddle with the template a bit to make the left button work the same as the right button (which is slightly better behaved, IMO).

No stress. I'll use the stylus

I don't care either way on that, personally.

Cheers, Grim...

Only trouble is without avatars I keep Reading Myp's posts.

Very fast on 5800, thanks!

Works nice on the Wii as well. Never thought of trying mobile sites on it before.

Mr Russell · **Joined:** 6th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 12346

Cracking work. My phone can't normally handle the large pages on here, and keeps timing out, so this should be sooper.

Malabelm · **Posted:** Thu Jul 16, 2009 9:53

Has anybody found that when using an iPhone and clicking on the General Discussion link at the bottom of threads, it often just skips right to the bottom of the page and makes the page's font slightly larger? Or better still skips to the bottom of the page, but still processes the click, so you end up on some user's page from the list at the bottom?

It happened on my 3G as well as this one, and only happens on the mobile version of this site.

myp · **Posted:** Thu Jul 16, 2009 10:01

No, but the font often resizes itself for no apparent reason, and sometimes it doesn't take me to the last unread post. Logging out and back in fixes the latter.

I like this forum option, more discreet when in work
