Lots of little things act up on my android, like the cursor is hard to put in the textbox, if you zoom in on the text box often it sits at the bottom right hand corner of the text box, while you're typing somewhere out of the screen in the top left.

yeah sort this shit out already

and if trog gets it working then me & HeardY can stop pestering 3x0

Well it's mainly me, but I can always count on HeardY to chime in with something helpful too.

uhh, it works a treat on iPhone, if you're gonna setup a mobile site, please don't force it for all mobile devices!!

Logitechshop.com.au is largely unusable on a mobile device :/

Is that because you don't have flash?

Edit: Nope, Just is really boring. Pressing the right arrow next to products results in products in a simple form..

It looks like it's designed for the nokia 6110.

I have no issues on my Desire

bump bump bumpity bump

schweet, if you can't got a mobile version out there at least fix the feed for slawed :)

short term, as in forever? :P

From my HTC Desire. :(

scuzzy, that's done with your settings, hows that

lol, it is HUGE on my mini pro. Half that size would be great for me, and the qlg themed skin gone would be great.

is it still huge now?

if you use the meta tag you don't need to compensate with huge fonts.

yeh, I took the huge fonts out & added the meta tag you suggested in. so I dunno if m3nt4l's is still bunk, or if he saw it before I made that change

the only thing I can easily change atm is the body stuff in the page - the thread listing & thread display stuff. So if you have any specific ideas I'm happy to throw them in - that meta tag looks much better, ta!

Yeah saw it before the change, looks good now

Forum root looks ok

Popup about not using qgl is annoying

Better than native agn

gamer, see the post above yours, obviously I know that stuff looks dumb, but i can't change it easily atm. Once time permits I will, but for now just interested in feedback re: the "main" parts cuz that's all I can change easily

Ok sorry I didn't really understand what you could and couldn't change.

Can we disable sickies from being 'stuck' on the mobile site?

I don't care who made the thread either - perhaps others can give their opinion on this? I think the thread title is the only important part along with the replies (to see how active a topic is).

Following on from this I would rather the icon that shows if a new post has been added since my last visit then a name of the thread creator.

I was torn on post author as well; in the end decided it was important

Ok sorry I didn't really understand what you could and couldn't change.

Some stuff I can change with point and click, others I have to change code.

I have a better idea of what is what now (from when I first haxed in what I called "pdaMode" about a billion years ago - I think it was in response to another natslovR thread about him wanting to be able to use his shitty Windows Mobile device to read the forums, actually :) ; I might spend more time on it over the w/e

I'd say just invest your time in an actual mobile site Trog, instead of trying to meld the current version when it clearly needs to be overhauled.

Clearly this outlines the need to move to vbulletin

tis on the todo, but it's wayyyyyyy more effort

I've just made a few more changes & fixed some more bugs; I'll try and get it updated on Monday as a stopgap.

scuzzy - any tips on ways to preview what a mobile version of a site will look like in Firefox? Can't find anything obvious that'll do it

It does look good, except the advertising is stupidly large on a mobile device, but it's better then nothing I guess.

bigger page numbers would be nice. i keep clicking on reply instead of page 1 2 3 >

updated stuff again; removed the big header and footer

wicked, ta

On the topic of mobile websites.. is there any way to force my browser (safari on iPhone) to go to the full version of a website instead of the mobile version?

Say I want to go to www.barnyardbitches.com and it redirects me to m.barnyardbitches.com, can I force it to display the proper www.barnyardbitches.com?

That would require user-agent trickery which isn't possible in Safari on iPhone without using Jailbreak mods. There might be a way to do it natively with Opera though, so maybe check that out.

Some sites aren't using user-agent any more - better practice is to query what the browser can do rather than get it to identify who it is. Reason for this is the speed of new browser versions being released - too much overhead to keep updating code to correctly identify them all.

Nice work on the mobile qgl site - is there an equivalent for ausgamers forums?

it's on the TODO :) It was just a quick hack off stuff that was 95% there already, but now I have a bit more of an idea on how to do it (i.e., ask scuzzy and make him do it all), hopefully I can smash something out

The only other minor gripe, if you hit the new mobile site and login, the login script redirects to the standard forum index rather then mobile one.

Hopefully this posts from my phone.

yeh there's something else that does that too, I'll try and fix that at some point

A few people have pointed out that you can't scale the forum any more thanks to SCUZZY; skythra pointed out a possible cause in another thread and I've got a new fix which basically allows some scaling while hopefully keeping it looking all normal. just testing it now

Works better now. Scaled all to Phone's window without having to scroll sideways

I just tested it out on my iPhone trog. still unable to zoom in/out

sorry, change hasn't been made yet - coming in the next few mins

OK it's updated. I don't know why but I can't seem to zoom out, but I thought I could on our dev/staging test sites, so I'm not sure what is going on.

Trog: here's a quick example of that resize shit, just shrink the width of the browser.

http://scuzzy.id.au/trogmobile.html

Can now zoom in / out again, cheers Trog

Can I plead make a suggestion/request: on the mobile site, inside the post td cells, place a span with a width property.
Reason for this is if you put it on the td, if someone puts in a wide image, it changes the max width for all cells. By adding this span, you're effectively re-setting it for each row/post.

This would help the horizontal scrolling needed currently, and I would hope is pretty easy to add.

Raven, yeh can do - can you give me a suggestion for what to do? I don't really have time to work on it ATM, but if you can give me stuff to copy/paste like the other blokes have I can chuck it in.

Depends on how you've templated mobile versus normal...
But I'm a little worried that [td...][span style="max-width: 100%"]...content[/span][/td] might not be adhered to by Safari etc.

Setting 'width=' might cause the post area to be full screen width, instead of the table width (as the user info + content) taking the screen width.
Maybe a better CSS pro can confirm.

Unfortunately I don't have any tools on me to grab and view the mobile source to see how different it is.

Edit: Looking at the sample code, this might be better:

[span class="mobilemax"]...[/span]

/* MEDIUM SCREENS */
@media screen and (max-width: 960px)
{
span.mobilemax {
max-width: 820px;
}
}

/* SMALL SCREENS */
@media screen and (max-width: 480px)
{
span.mobilemax {
max-width: 400px;
}
}


Edit: Also, thanks for fixing the zoom thing.
