div Posted June 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 I'm using Firefox mobile and also on the desktop, Div. Strange. I'm using Firefox on desktop and the site is absolutely flying. I took the site down for 25 mins there as I moved it to a new server in London. Previous server was older and it was in Germany. Might make a wee bit of difference to speed.

It just doesn't seem to scroll smoothly. I get a black screen and then the posts load up blurred at first before clearing (almost like going into focus). Maybe I've just not got the hang of it, but it feels like hard work just now, and pretty bloody frustrating. I have the fastest Virgin broadband, and it is very quick with everything else I'm doing despite the pounding it gets in here. When I tap text on the screen to edit text, it jumps about erratically, usually to the start of the post.

buddies1877 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 The way some are going on you would think they already pay for this forum. Be grateful we have div as a fellow supporter able to provide this for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whydowebother Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Aaaah. That'll be where Shull's 1.2 million posts went! Perhaps we should vote on an acceptable quota of his posts and threads ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using firefox, I'm on 20Mb broadband, almost certainly a lot slower than yours, and it's running absolutely perfectly. Can you try another browser first just to eliminate firefox as the cause please? Download Chrome or something like that, tell me if it behaves the same if you don't mind mate?

Personally , I don't see any benefit . . I seem to have lost the function of seeing the latest threads that have been posted on the right of the main forum page . .also , I see that both our avatar photies are distorted . .I don't know if that will improve or not . .

slapsalmon Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Someone mentioned not going to the most recent post in a thread when clicked. Just to the left of the thread title in whatever subforum you're browsing there's a big dot, which turns to a star if you've commented or replied (I think that's what makes it a star) if you click this it takes you to the first unread post in the thread. Works for me anyway. Edited June 23, 2016 by slapsalmon Eta photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I think it looks good and enjoying it on my laptop but simply can't get anything on my phone which is a pain. Kept getting asked if I have forgotten my password and then won't let me change it when I try. Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
