Did you ever get a chance to take a look at the bug where if you rotate the phone to landscape and back, the thread jumps back a bunch of posts?
― DJI, Wednesday, 19 September 2018 17:27 (five years ago) link
any chance we can get rid of the preview (or make it an option) soon? I just got hit with a Better Call Saul spoiler!
― dan selzer, Thursday, 4 October 2018 17:51 (five years ago) link
yesand i continue to be hit on preview by certain prolific posters i have reluctantly blocked

This bugs me too. I will fix both!
― stet, Thursday, 4 October 2018 21:35 (five years ago) link
Sad!

Tracer otm Thanks stet

Preview?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 4 October 2018 23:02 (five years ago) link
bookmarks in zing show a preview of the latest post in the thread underneath the thread title, takes up a lot of room and often contains spoilers.
― Machine Gunk Jelly (Spottie), Thursday, 4 October 2018 23:54 (five years ago) link
ahhh. i dont use bookmarks.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 4 October 2018 23:58 (five years ago) link
inconceivable!
― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 4 October 2018 23:59 (five years ago) link
i mostly just rely on the dots! So on mobile ILX is kinda hard to navigate at all haha.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 5 October 2018 00:41 (five years ago) link
Having SNA show up before / above bookmarks would be a massive improvement to this user’s experience

Not sure why but the “help me learn Japanese” thread will not load any answers at all on iOS 12. Everything else fine apart from the occasional lockup.

Same
― calstars, Saturday, 6 October 2018 13:14 (five years ago) link
my minor complaint is embedded twitter vids won’t play but I’ve found workarounds so it’s v v low priority
― Clay, Saturday, 6 October 2018 18:38 (five years ago) link
haha yeah at this point i think of that not as a bug but as just a particularity, a lovable quirk
― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 6 October 2018 21:16 (five years ago) link
Why doesn’t ILX on iphone/safari warn you that other people have posted when you hit submit post?
― 🦆🥣 (FlopsyDuck), Friday, 4 January 2019 21:37 (five years ago) link
I think that was put in because the OG Safari on Edge was so slow that you could get caught in xpost warnings forever on slow threads. Could probably take that out now.

New Zing version rolling out now: adds a preference for those snippets. Sorry it took so long!
― stet, Monday, 7 January 2019 14:54 (five years ago) link
thank you
― dan selzer, Monday, 7 January 2019 17:38 (five years ago) link
So nice thanks!

gooood thx stet
― alomar lines, Tuesday, 8 January 2019 04:40 (five years ago) link
no idea why, but the recently revived Prodigy thread refused to open for me on zing...
― lefal junglist platton (wtev), Saturday, 13 April 2019 16:05 (five years ago) link
Same here
― licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Saturday, 13 April 2019 16:12 (five years ago) link
There’s some old-ILX HTML in there somewhere that’s giving Zing pause
― stet, Saturday, 13 April 2019 17:58 (five years ago) link
Old like flint... Thanks for checking stet.

Bookmarking the Filmforum thread on De Subjectivisten crashes the app.
― willem, Monday, 15 April 2019 11:53 (five years ago) link
Hmm works for me!
― stet, Monday, 15 April 2019 13:04 (five years ago) link
Hmm. I'm on an iPhone SE/12.2.Maybe removing and re-bookmarking will work..
― willem, Monday, 15 April 2019 13:22 (five years ago) link
It didn't :/
― willem, Monday, 15 April 2019 14:48 (five years ago) link
Is that the only thread you can’t bookmark?
― stet, Monday, 15 April 2019 14:54 (five years ago) link
Yes. Out of 30-40 bookmarked threads that's the only one.
― willem, Monday, 15 April 2019 16:12 (five years ago) link
btw thx for fixing that thing where the menu text was all jumbled
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 16 April 2019 17:07 (five years ago) link
Just weighing in to say I'm on iPhone 5S/12.2 and filmforum bookmarks just fine here.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 16 April 2019 17:13 (five years ago) link
New version rolling out now, mainly small changes:- There's a dark mode toggle in the homescreen- You can now swipe a bookmark left to set it to the latest message, and right to delete it- You can now share a post as a link, or open it in your browser (tap a message and hit the share button)- The single message page now follows the font size set in settings, and looks a bit less 2007.- Zing copes better if messages have corrupt or bad HTML in them, and lets you open the thread in Safari instead of crashing.- The keyboard's now quite dark in dark mode
― stet, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 21:56 (five years ago) link
Awesome! Have you looked at the rotate bug?
― DJI, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 22:15 (five years ago) link
Yes, but haven't fixed it — it doesn't seem to be totally my fault, the tableview is doing something I can't quite explain but I might be able to work around it.
― stet, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 22:17 (five years ago) link
thx, man!
― DJI, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 22:23 (five years ago) link
as always, many thanks. it’s a great app anyway and those additions all seem really useful.
― Fizzles, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 22:40 (five years ago) link
All hail the Stet
― calstars, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 23:35 (five years ago) link
Excellent update.
