Probably the other button (hyperlink for a quick/dirty solution) we would miss on the first page is "Mark Forums Read" ... not so useful for mods, but used by most others I'd guess.

That'll be the problem with the older blackberry's that I kept hearing about. They render the screen differently and the problem is being worked on. I just hoped we had no users that would get the problem.

As a work-around, type the following URL into your browser and save it as a bookmark should it keep happening:-

I hope that's okay for now mate. I'll get onto the fix asap for you. You'll not be one of the users of the new app we're getting and I still want you guys to use the forum on your mobiles so send me a PM in a couple of weeks if you haven't heard from me regarding the fix. It'd be good if everybody had a nice interface to browse on.

Doesn't seem to be working with that code either. I used the site alot on the job but obviously can't do that now....

It works with BB's running OS6.....

I'll make this issue urgent for you then and stick it right at the top of my to-do list. There's already been a bit of help provided to the developers from BB users but I'm not one of them so couldn't test and most of those I read complaining had got it working. So I'll go find out what version they're on, and what they did to fix it, and hit you back asap. You'll have to be my tester though if that's okay.

@ Electricalserv......can you not update your BB phones software to a newer version???

I know there are limits as to how newer you can go but maybe worth a try?

 

[Dan]

Something I'm not too clued up on again but give it a go if you can and we can tell people how to do it maybe?

I landed on the new page and then clicked the link got UHF full site nod only the full site loads. How do I get back to the reduced version?

 

[andekoch]

Just answered my question. If I log out and then log in again I am taken to the new site.
Comments so far are that the new site is slower on my iPhone than the full version. Also the full version shows more info on the page due to the smaller text size I can get on it which I prefer. Will keep playing with the new look for a while. Good to keep the option to go to the full site.
I would like a 'new posts' button. Thanks for all the good work.
