It does resize and hide a lot of things by default on mobile devices.Yeah, I know its old (how sad is that? 4 years old and its obsolete). I like seeing the avatars, but there is just way too much space being taken up. The spacing between lines is pretty large too.
I see your phone is 360x640 I haven't gotten all tweaking done, especially at low resolutions like that, all the devices I tested on where higher than that...

I would lose the Rambo knife from the edged forums menu. It looks like an invitation to get this site blocked from many placesActually we can customize for each subsection with this new theme very easily. I'd like to get the mods to run some comps or something for new icons to save me some legwork :pok:
Not a bug, but a theme formatting suggesting. For thread listings like on this page, probably a bit better to run the border-bottom: 1px dotted #bbb; code that is on post_container in the CSS on bwgrid instead for each post. It would help more to separate the posts, more like what you see on this page separating sub forum areas: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=forum.I know... there's so many little things like that I glossed over while drooling at how fast it is on everything... partially due to a lack of formatting in some areas like that and PMs. noted.

A lot of wasted space on the left of the screen, the avatar takes up a 1/4 of the screen on my computer . Did we lose the like button and also ranking / post count on the avatar.uh... what resolution are you running on your computer for it to be 1/4 of your screen...
Will we get the click for larger picture feature back ?
:cheers:
This will definitely take some getting used to.
using chrome, windows 8I am seeing double line breaks for each line return, I'll have to track that one down...
can you have less space between the various lines of text in the thread? (it seems to have double spacing instead of single between lines)
it just spreads everything more, making a post longer and harder to read.
What about the search box, no more search the forum with Google?
JR
Oh and what's the little circle with the note button on the right above the post?

Edit: deleted most of my comments as they were already discussed before I posted!
I do think there is value in displaying post count and post ranking though. It's good to know who the "tribal elders" are.

Is there a reason that when you select 'Replies' it does this?no idea, please send me your setup so I can further test it. >:D I do not have this problem on 1920x1080
its at 2560 x 1440

Last thing I noticed for now. Clicking the green "new post" indicator next to subforum names (such as General Tool Forum) does nothing, but clicking the indicator next to threads opens the threads. Can we make it so the indicator opens the subforum?I know what you mean, but in the subforum case it's notifying you of new posts in several threads so perhaps it's encouragement to look at what the posts are... whereas on the threads themselves it jumps you to the first unread post of that thread. IMHO this is the same behaviour the old section icons had, but now we have a different section icon setup... so the green square is a fair trade off imho.
Another design suggestion when looking at the threads.There's a number of these tweaks I need to look at. As is we launched a bit later than planned, so we did rush it out the door a bit. Also our starting point was far from perfect to begin with.
The signature/badge area is gray. Because of that, it has a good bit of contrast with the background of the page, and thus more emphasis than the actual post. So it draws the eye a lot. Typically it would be better to have the post have more emphasis, or at least, not have the badge/signature area stand out so much.
Selectable search is a mod, it's on my todo list as it does not install cleanly on this theme due to it's custom nature therefore requires me to dig a little deeper to get it working.Is there a reason that when you select 'Replies' it does this?no idea, please send me your setup so I can further test it. >:D I do not have this problem on 1920x1080

Is there simply timeline? I don't like unread as then I loose new posts if read once already. Maybe I am just slow that I go back to threads already read.
Is there a way to "request desktop version" please?

Or you can go to the main window, scroll to the bottom and click the most recent posts link
Oh, one other thing. I think the little button you click to read to the last post in a thread could do with a bigger size or something to make it stand out. I am inclined to click on the username but that's just me :facepalm:

I changed back to the old theme for the time being, it was much clearer (for me), especially on my mobile phone :salute::o I find the old theme terrible to navigate on my phone, less so on my tablet, but it's crazy high resolution... The new one is much easier and loads much faster for everything I've tried it with so far...
Although I do appreciate the effort, my mantra with things like this is: if it ain't broke, don't fix it :cheers:
OK, now I feel like one of those elderly people who hates change :facepalm:
Post count is nice, at least keep the ranking?

You should be able to see everyone else's nuts. ;)
Admin, Mods, charter members are nutless
Liking the less white background colors :cheers: Easier on the old eyes :DI agree, looks nice. Good job on the quick fix on that one Whooey.

Whooey, maybe it would be more useful to display the post count, rather than the nuts by default? :think:

I can't figure out how to see signatures anymore. I don't have the option to hide them selected, but I don't se any :think:
I do really like the new layout. Much better than the old mobile site, IMO. and much faster than forcing to the desktop site on my phone.
mobile has them hidden due to some people having huge signatures... :pok:
On my Iphone 5s the avatar sometimes comes into the title like this.I'm aware. It's a bit of an annoyance getting the banners in line but I think this may be licked now?
Also some picures only display galf the picture. Have to click on it to make it show.
Had notice the listing of the replies are scrunched to the side using a Samsung Grand Prime phone.pretty sure I squashed that one already?
Also having a hell of a time clicking other numbers with my finger on the smartphone. And tried like 15 times to hit the 4 and ended hitting 3. Most the time pressing 4 nothing happened. Any chance to get a small square around the numbers to take a bite? have even tried increasing the font size using zoom and 4 just won't take the hint.
Was trying to add a photo to Grant's bottle opener thread and took me literally 30 minutes to get to the final page to highlight that massive wall of text and add an entry on the Grand Prime. :ahhh

Went to go see who donated this month (still on mobile) this is what I got on my screen (I am NOT requesting the desktop site). The names are pushed way the the right, with no option to scroll the name list vertically or horizontally. Pretty sure a bunch of names are getting cut off too.

I liked the two different colour tones separating the posts. Sig area attracts attention from post and personal text gets lost in there somewhere.

That's a good point. I'm finding my eyes hunt around more for the actual post content amongst the post headers, footers, quotes etc. than with the old layout.
