Sticky headers at the top of each page suck .. half my screen is used up on my phone ?
Page numbers should be at the bottom of each page not at the top imo

Ditch the pages and you don't get that.....

Entering any thread takes you to the last post you read..

Exactly

You need a new phone then...continuous threads don't have page numbers at the top or bottom

I’ve turned of pagination through settings but still the same ..
Now all fonts are in blue is that correct?

Most times it takes you to the last page .....I know a few times when I've entered threads ie the Cricket thread or Soccer thread I've seen Citizen Cub's and FT opening comments ...was even reading through the soccer thread's first few pages ....

This is my screen shot ..
The sticky header is too big 😂


Is it because I have a POV iPhone 8 ?

Awesome work as always Kul.

Couple of things from me:

1. Any chance of a night mode?
2. Can we get pagination at the top of the thread too?


Night mode coming soon

Thanks Kul, really appreciate that.

Would also love to have pagination back at the top (as well as keeping the bottom) if that's possible?

Just makes it so much quicker flicking through.

I don't get you weird folks that still use pages.

Yep i don't get it either. Whether on mobile or desktop i log in and click on a thread, go to my most recent unread post and then just keeping scrolling down til i'm up to date.

If there's a lot of waffle it certainly allows for a speedier bypass. Why keep clicking next page, waiting for a page to load, read some comments then stop click next page again, wait for it to load and start again?? You can also see which post you're upto in the thread to judge how many new comments there are to read. There's simply no benefit to pagination, but each to their own i guess...

Sometimes I like to refer back to a particular post so it's easier to find by making note of which pages is on... That's just me

Sometimes you can’t win.

Either infinite scrolling is the devils work, or it’s a godsend.

Other times the sticky header is amazing, others times it’s the worst thing since Adam Blair.

😔

I will try to actions the the following:
- reduce the size of the sticky header (although it can’t be fully removed)
- enable a dark mode option

If anyone wants to play around with the CSS and offer some suggested changes, then please do post them here and I’ll definitely try to include it.

Mate, @Kul you have done an exceptional job. I like it just how it is. Works well on both PC and Smart Devices. You just can’t please some people though who can’t handle change. Which is ironic considering the IT industry basically re-invents itself every 18 months.

What's a sticky header?

The thing at the top which tells you the topic and sub forum you are in..

I believe in the new COO we have a history section ....the carrier pigeon , Sheens Fax machine , the Morse code we used to contact player managers ....fountain pens used to sign contracts ....all there ...all magical stuff

 

[Tiger_Steve]

Far out!! I cannot believe the whinging. @Kul you do an amazing job. Don’t worry about pleasing everyone - you never will.
This forum is brilliant and was minimal technical issues.
As for sticky stuff at the top of the frame - who the hell cares!!!

Fair enough, but alternatively with infinite scroll you can simply take note of the post of interest, say post 70 out of 100. Then continue to read the read the remaining 30 posts before either scrolling up or jumping back to post 70.

 

[balmain boy]

I had a post of mine which seems to have been greyed out. What does this mean? It was on topic and didn't contain any swearing or anything. What does a greyed out post signify in the new forum?

 

[Kul]

- Emjoi sizes should now be fixed
- I've reduced the hight of the sticky header on mobile phones... I can't make it smaller without removing the thread title or the action bar, which would be silly!.
