Zing Touch: ILX now ON IPHONE (and ipod tooches too)

I can return JSON if that’s what you prefer but yeah it’s the auth etc that will cause all the grief. What platform are you building for?

nbd really! just curious

If that sounds about right, I’ll see how long my attention span lasts in experimenting. I was messing around in Flutter/Dart and was going to do a quick c# backend (something I have existing experience in) to get things rolling faster.

hey is there like a bug submission type thing if we find a thread that gives a "Problem reading messages" error saying that Zing can't read old/corrupted messages? it's this one btw: Maurice Fulton...best tunes by him

You can start a thread on Mod Request, but I'll sort this one, thanks

Should be sorted now.

Also, mh: now have a non-cookie-based version of the auth API, if you're still playing about

my home coding is all work-related now but that’s cool news!

Just curious why the app prevents you from pinching / resizing images ?

It’s not so much that it prevents it, it’s more than I don’t know how to enable it! Time to copy and paste random things from StackOverflow dot com again

update on my search problem:

at some point I discovered that search actually does work fine for me when I do it on the bookmarks page. the issue I described back in Dec and Jan is with searching on
one of the board pages. so basically I’m good as long as I think before I search.

New version going out now with support for hidden text

and experimental styling in posts

• l
• m
• a
• o

Hey, stet, poss. I missed this upthread but are you aware poll results aren’t showing? Not the end of the world as I can pull them up on Safari and I’m not sure if it’s only a problem with older threads. But I’ve noticed it a bunch when searching through various poll threads of late.

Have you got some examples, please? All the ones I've looked at so far are working OK for me

I'm thinking it may be the same issue reported earlier:

ime (13.3/iPhone8), threads that are polls do not show poll results when you select them through search

Yeah, that's right. Tricky to fix, that -- I'll see if I can come up with something.

ahhh shit yes, that remains tricky

i can't remember if i've said this before but trying to save an image from zing results in an instant crash.

Take your time it's no big deal for me

Talking about pictures, would it be possible to allow for zooming in on pictures when selecting a post?

^ mentioned previously, I think stet said it's just a matter of putting in the time to make this possible.

just yesterday I tried to zoom in on a fan at a baseball game eating a tremendous bag of popcorn (to no avail)

The workaround is to bookmark a post from the poll thread and then open it from the bookmark if that helps

Yeah that works, thanks!
