@Josh DUK sorry to be a pest but this movement of the screen is driving me nuts, it makes my eyes go funny. I realise the tech team have a lot to do but is there anything my end I can do to fix the problem, I had the same problem with a puzzle site which I have had to stop using because of it? Sorry 🙄

Sorry with this and it is still being worked on. The only solution would be to use your device in horizontal mode or possibly use a computer. I made this a priority for the for the tech team.
 
@Josh DUK I don't know whether this has already been mentioned, apologies if it has. A very minor text thing on the Information section heading. It says that there is driving information as well as news on health books and useful links. But the driving forum is not in that section.

Cheers Andy,

I have made the change.
 
I’m having some odd page things happen. The pages display fine but if I touch the screen to scroll they can be very wobbly in where the margins end up. Even if I stay with it centred when I hit reply everything skews.

I’m on IPad. I usually use it in landscape but this is also portrait after I’ve replied to a post and what happens as I type a reply.

Hello Thebearcametoo,

We have a few members experiencing this issue and we are hoping we will have a fix soon.
 
Thanks for the response Josh. I know bug hunting is a time consuming and sometimes thankless task but I have an inkling that there is one bug here which is causing a few issues and that it will be one of those "Doh" moments when it is found.🙂

The big one is the wobbly screen issue! I think we have pin pointed whats causing it, so waiting for the forum architect to look over it.

Thank you Josh, I don’t have a computer so that’s not an option. I will hope the tech team can sort it. Again many thanks

Magnifying glass symbol, top right under phone number!

Same here on my Tablet Tbct, driving me nuts!

I use my Tablet in Portrait mode only coz the screen wobbles more in Landscape mode. But half of DUKs telephone number is off the page ~ and 'donate' key is totally off screen.

If it's not too much trouble please can the tel number be placed more central to say above where it says Members?

Same problem I have been reporting WL.... Josh is onto it!
 
I'm not the world's best coper with change. I'm finding the new colour scheme very bright and eye watering. Maybe I will get used to it but right now it feels quite overwhelming. I'm on a desktop and I feel I need to leave much more quickly because I am getting sensory overload with all the bright white and blue.

I think the problem is they decided to put it a specific distance from the left. And not allowing it to adjust to the screen. Instead, they could try telling the browser (which knows how big the screen is) to put it at the right hand side of the screen.
It would then move left on smaller screens. Like the login link used to do (Not sure if it still does).
 
If anyone finds any bugs regarding the forum upgrade, please feel free to post them here and we will try and resolve them.


Best,
Josh
From a humorous point of view, I think you might regret saying this Josh!!!🙂:D😉 Hope you have paracetamol handy!

Was it ever capitalised? Had I been asked, I would have said it was always lower case.

It seems likely someone with the relevant permissions can change it for you, but it would be utterly bizarre only for your name to have been changed.

Of course, my memory could be failing me badly.
Thanks AndBreathe. Your memory isn't failing you ~ but mine definitely is!:confused:🙄:D

Wirralass, I have a very scary memory most of the time, but if something doesn't come to me in an instant, it's not coming to me at all!

Glad you're sorted though. Once discovered, that'd have bothered you, I bet.
 
Nearly there Josh. Phone number now on screen but "donate" button still off screen.
