Yeah this is weird to me!

example (crüt), Thursday, 23 March 2017 04:05 (seven years ago) link

(Android, Firefox 50.1.0)

koogs, Thursday, 23 March 2017 04:06 (seven years ago) link

You know there's a special ILX app for Android? Search for 'Flagging' in the Play Store.

ArchCarrier, Thursday, 23 March 2017 06:48 (seven years ago) link

Yes, weird formatting happening for me to using chrome on Android. Request desktop site seems to help, but haven't needed that previously.

Moodles, Thursday, 23 March 2017 06:59 (seven years ago) link

Weird in an unusable way or just a "this is different" way?

It has changed: I've set a viewport for mobile which stops browsers trying to fit the entire page into view (and making it tiny as a result). This was giving us problems with search, as Google was penalising it for being mobile-unfriendly and not showing ILX results on mobile.

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 09:20 (seven years ago) link

large left margin and no right margin. not unusable but not acceptable either

r|t|c, Thursday, 23 March 2017 11:33 (seven years ago) link

Yes, left margin is too big and the bookmarks div uses only the central 40% of the page.

Don't think that's new.css, can you try that? If it is better then I probably just need to refresh the stylesheets to cold

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 12:10 (seven years ago) link

That was mono something, new is the same, only more colourful. Actually, new is using probably the middle 75% of the screen for bookmarks.

koogs, Thursday, 23 March 2017 12:21 (seven years ago) link

(I like the new menus and add a post box, it's just those margins)

koogs, Thursday, 23 March 2017 12:22 (seven years ago) link

Yes, large left margin is the main problem. It pushes text off the right side of the screen

Moodles, Thursday, 23 March 2017 13:03 (seven years ago) link

change in bookmark behavior (Firefox, Win 10) - used to be, when I clicked the Bookmark link, the thread title would no longer be displayed at the top - now it remains there until you go to another page, then it disappears. nbd, just noting.

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:19 (seven years ago) link

wait it worked just now, maybe it's just too early and I need coffee

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:19 (seven years ago) link

no that has definitely become a thing for me too

Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:26 (seven years ago) link

Yeah I just came here to report that, and the odd viewing experience on mobile (Safari on iOS)

Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:33 (seven years ago) link

Obviously the second is far more jarring than the first (the old behaviour there was desktop-only, of course)

Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:34 (seven years ago) link

yeah, just saw it happen again on the Talking Heads thread, but it worked properly on this one, let's see what happens after I post

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:37 (seven years ago) link

Same as Sleeve, w/ all my bookmarks.

Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:38 (seven years ago) link

refreshed properly that time, no link visible

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:38 (seven years ago) link

however, it does seem to load the whole thread now whereas before I think it just reloaded whatever had been posted since your previous bookmark?

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:39 (seven years ago) link

Have also had to tick Request Desktop Site since css change. Wondered if it was a way to persuade android users to use the Flagging app tbh.

Colonel Poo, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:53 (seven years ago) link

OK now I click "Bookmark" and still see the link up top (shrug)

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:58 (seven years ago) link

I haven't changed anything about the bookmarking behaviour; I wonder why that's changed. Will see what I can figure out.

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 14:59 (seven years ago) link

haha that time it went away!

thanks for all your work, stet!

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:00 (seven years ago) link

Mine has a large right margin not left margin?

example (crüt), Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:12 (seven years ago) link

who is search back?

marcos, Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:15 (seven years ago) link

who whoa is search back?

marcos, Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:15 (seven years ago) link

i guess not

marcos, Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:16 (seven years ago) link

oh I see the problem with bookmarking; should be able to fix

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 15:21 (seven years ago) link

fixed!

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 22:09 (seven years ago) link

<3

sleeve, Thursday, 23 March 2017 22:19 (seven years ago) link

That was fast!

On the https stuff, does Zing use that now?

DJI, Thursday, 23 March 2017 22:59 (seven years ago) link

No, it'll need an update to use that. Working on it though

stet, Thursday, 23 March 2017 23:23 (seven years ago) link

Thank you!

DJI, Friday, 24 March 2017 00:56 (seven years ago) link

Is it possible whatever you did with bookmarks momentarily caused my bookmarks in Flagging to update?

Moodles, Friday, 24 March 2017 01:11 (seven years ago) link

my mobile site is still weirdly narrow

k3vin k., Friday, 24 March 2017 01:18 (seven years ago) link

Maybe there needs to be a mobile.css. hard to do though, without an editor on the phone.

koogs, Friday, 24 March 2017 07:48 (seven years ago) link

Hey guys, I can't post a question anywhere. Just me or a problem with the board? Getting poxy fule errors.

Bobson Dugnutt (ulysses), Saturday, 25 March 2017 16:02 (seven years ago) link

still narrow for me on iphone safari :(

also recent posts is down

k3vin k., Saturday, 25 March 2017 16:45 (seven years ago) link

i've put a new mobile css here http://www.koogy.clara.co.uk/mobile.css if keith / stet would like to add that to the list

changes:
body.margin-left and margin-right down from 3 to .5 em - main indent
blockquote.margin-left and margin-right set to 5px each (the default is 40px)
.mainblock.margin-right to .5em to match margin-left
.mainblock.padding-left down from 10px to 5px

(comments are within mainblock within body so they were getting doubly indented)

i've only looked at a thread with bookmarks and block quotes as those were the things that were bugging me the most. shout if i need to add anything else.

koogs, Saturday, 25 March 2017 18:05 (seven years ago) link

Thanks for doing this! Am on hols this week with 2G so will install when I get back

stet, Saturday, 25 March 2017 21:00 (seven years ago) link

Oh, but that's a per-account seeing, isn't it? So if I choose mobile.css that'll be what I see on the desktop too. Not great (not a disaster because it's only slightly smaller margins but... )

Maybe there's a way of switching based on attributes, so mobile.css changes are part of new.css and selected if screen width is below a certain size.

koogs, Saturday, 25 March 2017 22:43 (seven years ago) link

(I know you can do that, just didn't try it because I didn't think it was necessary)

(And whether it works everywhere is always a gotcha)

koogs, Saturday, 25 March 2017 22:45 (seven years ago) link

It's not per account - I use a different stylesheet on my phone than on my desktop - assume it's cookie-based?

Colonel Poo, Saturday, 25 March 2017 22:54 (seven years ago) link

Strange to say, when the main Search wasn't working, I could still access My Recent Posts. Now everything is Poxy Fuled. :-(

a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Saturday, 25 March 2017 23:13 (seven years ago) link

xp on my PC (WIn7, Firefox) there's a cookie called StyleSheet whose content is 'old.css' (the stylesheet I use).

well the bitter comes out better on a stolen Switch cartridge (snoball), Saturday, 25 March 2017 23:20 (seven years ago) link

xp I get Poxy Fuled now on both search and My Recent Posts, where the latter worked up until the day before yesterday.

well the bitter comes out better on a stolen Switch cartridge (snoball), Saturday, 25 March 2017 23:21 (seven years ago) link

so uh have we figured out why iPhone safari is narrow or what

k3vin k., Sunday, 26 March 2017 05:14 (seven years ago) link

because it's kind of annoying
