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).

Just to add to the woe, the text box add send button to send a pm are also huge. Hope tech are ok

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 25/05/2013 11:59

And not add Blush

I think it's a trick to get us to preview, which I've done twice without meaning to.

Not a bad thing imo Smile

Hmm, if its a trick to get us to preview, the box doesn't seem to work on my nexus 7 Olivia - I have accidentally pressed it several times today (because its so blimming big) and nothing has happened.

SummerRainIsADistantMemory · 25/05/2013 14:04

Me too, it goes orange but nothing happens.

SPsCliffingAllOverMN · 25/05/2013 14:07

Threads I'm on has gone weird. Its massive font.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 25/05/2013 15:17

When will it be fixed?? DH can read my comments over my shoulder now cos of the huge text, which means I can't moan about him until you do Wink

SummerRainIsADistantMemory · 25/05/2013 15:19

Yay, my tio is back to normal.

Text in the reply box is still huge though.

Tech · 25/05/2013 15:22

Hi, Can you have a look at threads i'm on now. Is it back to normal? Looks OK on my iphone now and on a galaxy tab and it looks more normal. Whaddaya think?

Tech · 25/05/2013 15:25

Hm on the galaxy (android) the text in the reply box is still massive. Hmm. Will investigate.

Tee2072 · 25/05/2013 15:28

My TIO is now back to normal. iPhone 4s, Chrome. Reply box seems okay too.

WingDefence · 25/05/2013 15:33

TIO back to normal but TIW (which I use more) is still massive. (And the buttons under this text box - preview is in normal font, post is in bold?)

Tech · 25/05/2013 15:39

TIW should be back to normal now. I'm head scratching slightly on the android massive text in the text box problem, but we are looking at it...

Tee2072 · 25/05/2013 15:40

Poor Tech.

Gin?

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 25/05/2013 16:05

Poor tech, you're doing a marvelous job! The text box when you pm is also huge as well as posting to a thread. I'm on android as well.

WingDefence · 25/05/2013 17:19

Thanks Tech Thanks TIW fine in safari now!

cocolepew · 25/05/2013 17:28

TIO is ok but text and reply box still big.
Android,Galaxy note, Dolphin browser.

DontMeanToBeRudeBut · 25/05/2013 17:53

TIO is back to normal for me (iPhone 4S Safari). Thankyou Thanks

Tee2072 · 25/05/2013 18:14

Also huge text box entry on my Fire HD.

Deffo an Android issue.

Tech · 25/05/2013 20:06

Hi, just to let you know this is not forgotten. I'm just downloading summat off the intertubes that claims it'll let me look into the innards (sort of) of the android browser on the galaxy and see why the text is displaying so inappropriately large.

tech methinks that you need to ask MNHQ to buy you a test server and then use a mobile phone emulator to test out the repercussions...

Just sayin......

In font size 70ish

SummerRainIsADistantMemory · 25/05/2013 20:20

Testing.....

Nope, still mahoosive. (android)

sjuperyoni · 25/05/2013 21:07

Ginormous still on my s4 for writing, TIO & TIW are normal again as is the sort button.
