Site stuff

Tech? Yoohoo! Are you playing with the mobile site?

iPhone 4S using safari browser and the mobile site.

The layout has all gone wonky - the buttons are huge and square and don't fit on the screen (under each other) and typing in the message box produces huge text.

T'is very disconcerting as I can only see about 4 words at a time.

(I've tried logging out and clearing my cache, history and cookies in case it's at my end).

Mine is all fitting on the page ok, but the font is HHUUGGEE in the typing box.

And theres a huge thing at the top of TIO for sorting their order.

I am on a galaxy ace using android.

It fits in page but the buttons that used to be bigger have shrunk and the smaller ones are massive. Even my text is massive as I write this.

I'm on an HTC android and seeing the same thing, HUGE font size in the box to type your text in and a giant button at the top of my inbox page with options to sort my PM's by.

Using mobile website BTW not the app, since my phone is shite and goes bang if I download more than two apps at a time.

Yes, sorry - this seems to be related to a software release this morning. Tech is on the case...

I was just about to start the same thread. Mobile site, android phone. Huuuuge font in the text box and tio has a weird big bit at the top.

Something is a bit different on iPhone 3GS - the text size is larger in the typing box and the preview and post message look a bit different. Threads I'm on also different.

Hello. OK, as RowanMN said, the release we've done this morning (to simplify/improve the registration process) has created a few glitches for those using phones.

Sorry.

From what we can work out from this thread - and our various scrabblings around on our phones in the office - this is what we know:

  • Text in the message box is much bigger, especially if you're on an android device

  • The Sort button in Threads I'm On has gone supersize.

  • The links for Next and Previous (pages) are a bit teeny

  • Some other prompt buttons, in places like Customise, have gone supersize too.

    We can fix all these - and are on the case now.

    Are there any other issues, not in the list above, that we should know about?

Once a sentence is written I can't write more on a PM. Text box too small for the huge font.

Oh no. We'll look into that one.

@PolterGoose

As well as all that my preview and post message buttons have gone big too. On iPhone using mobile site.


Yes, that's true. Is that not better, though?
