The toolbar accross the bottom ... has gone.

I started a thread (this one haha) using the drop down at the top.

I liked the toolbar !
Has it gone forever?
I liked hitting the 'active' button

I thought it was a ploy to get us to use the app...
installing an app on a device usually allows the creator of the app to harvest data from the device and track the owner of the device so it's in mn's interest to have members use the app rather than a browser

I didnt know there was an app tbh

Maudlinmaud · 18/05/2017 16:41

I'm using the app now, it's much easier than desktop but I prefer the mobile version. It may be a case of getting used to it. If anyone is having diffs with desktop I recommend this for short term use. The print is bigger etc and the shortcut icons are there.

MooMooCat · 18/05/2017 16:25

I hate using desktop on my tablet, much prefer mobile, I hope its sorted soon.

MothertotheLordsofmisrule · 18/05/2017 16:25

Same problem here, posting from desktop on phone.
Can't like it.

CharlotteCollinsneeLucas · 18/05/2017 16:14

Glad it's not just me.

Alternatively, I thought it was a ploy to get us to use the app...

RockPaperCut · 18/05/2017 16:08

Yup, same here.

HerRoyalFattyness · 18/05/2017 15:40

I've got the same problem. It's very frustrating.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/05/2017 14:20

The three buttons at the top don't work on mobile site, no shortcut buttons at the bottom and I can only post on desktop site (and its ludicrously small type on there!

Don't make me have to actually do some work this afternoon Grin

Thanks for the update, all - tech are taking a look and we will update you once we know more. Sorry, we know it's a pain!

megletthesecond · 18/05/2017 14:04

It's let me in via the desktop site on my phone.

kali110 · 18/05/2017 13:40

For the last 2 weeks iv also had a problem with adverts!
They take over the entire right hand side of my screen.
I have to keep deleting the page and starting over.
It's put me off coming on here.
Iphone also warned me last week that this site wasn't safe?

kali110 · 18/05/2017 13:39

pink that's the same problem i'm havibg

PatMullins · 18/05/2017 13:38

Yep, can't do shit.

PossumInAPearTree · 18/05/2017 13:36

Only problem I'm having is in my iPad (think I'm on desktop version) is how unresponsive the scrolling is. I give up reading some threads now as I just can't scroll up and down.

I was worried it was my iPad but it's fine in other sites and funnily enough is fine when I'm in active convos scrolling up and down the different thread titles. It just seems to be inside an individual thread. The site is unusable at times.

LineysRun · 18/05/2017 13:32

Yes, DrudgeJedd. The adverts are taking over and the site broke.

PinkSquash · 18/05/2017 13:29

I have the same problem as everyone else. Desktop is hideously small on my phone too.

I'm using Chrome on a Samsung S7.

Lost the bar at the bottom
SnickersWasAHorse · 18/05/2017 13:12

Gone for me too and I couldn't post.!!

iPhone 6 with latest iOS

kali110 · 18/05/2017 12:39

When i try to post from the mobile site it simply circles for ages, as if there is a problem with the connection ( there isn't)

kali110 · 18/05/2017 12:37

Im on the iphone, not only have i lost the bar but i can't even post a reply on the mobile site! Iv had to log onto the app!

CherieBabySpliffUp · 18/05/2017 12:37

I too am having problems.
Has anyone tried clearing their cache?

TwatteryFlowers · 18/05/2017 12:35

The middle button (the person?) Isn't working when I press it and I don't have my icon bar either :(
I have tried to pay this on the mobile site and got the spinning circle of death. Nothing happened.
Google Chrome, android phone

Datun · 18/05/2017 12:34

You also can't search by clicking on the 'talk' in the line you're on and typing in a topic.

Gawd. That's so difficult to describe. And I realise I have made a complete hash of it.

Confuzzlediddled · 18/05/2017 12:31

You also can't click to enlarge photos or select anything from the drop down (report, flip thread etc)

PickAChew · 18/05/2017 12:31

The bloody ads all refresh quickly enough, mind.

DrudgeJedd · 18/05/2017 12:30

Lineysrun you mean like this mess?
