Jack Norflus Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Jeff With the update done I'm still getting a black box on the new content page on my Android device. It will go away when I hit refresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audio Daddyo Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Just recently I also am getting a black box that says "loading" when I return from a thread to the new content page. When I go to another thread and then return to the new content page I get a second black box that says "loading". The most I get are two black boxes. The boxes stay on the screen in the new content window until I exit. I'm using an Android phone. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wexler Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I will look into this. I don't have anything running Android OS so it is a little bit more difficult for me to sort out. Are either of you running the IPB app? The IPB app (current version for iOS-6) works very well. I don't know anything about the Android version. If you are not using the IPB app, the site is detecting a mobile browser and then tries to load the default mobile skin. It may be that the default mobile skin was not properly updated for compatibility with the updated forum software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audio Daddyo Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Jeff, I don't have the IPB app on my phone. Let me know if there is any other info you need. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Norflus Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looked at the android app store ans I don't see anything regarding ipb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Norflus Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Now it is not allowing me to get mobile view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wexler Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 This is getting quite complex but I will continue to work on support for Android mobile skin after this most recent update. I have checked as well if the Android IPB app is out yet and it appears that it is still in development and has not yet been released. You could try Tapatalk which is working okay for those that are using it. I will keep everyone posted as things progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundslikejustin Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 iPhone 4, no IPB app, can't get mobile theme either. New full site colors are nice, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wexler Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Jack, and anyone else with Android phone, try and get the site to display with a new mobile theme I have installed and hopefully configured to work properly. I'm not sure how you do this with mobile browser (on your Android phone) but I'm sure you will have to do something like signing out, empty the cache, sign back in, refresh the page, etc. You should then see a gray mobile version with a menu that appears as a cluster of square boxes where you can select New Content, etc. Let me know if any of this works for you.

soundslikejustin Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I still get them. At this point, I'm kind of simultaneously attached to them and annoyed by them. If they suddenly went away, I'd feel...weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio Daddyo Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Now I get 2 black boxes on the 2nd return to new content. This is after I cleared cache and signed out and back in again. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil D Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Hi Jeff, Has stopped working today...cannot get to new content page..the little cluster of boxes does not respond..and page formats rather oddly. I presume you are working on it, but thought I would report in as there is a change in what I reported yesterday. Have just tried Tapatalk, but brings up a different version, not the grey one with the boxes. Cheers, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Norflus Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yep no mobile version on Android and no mark board read anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Norflus Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 The version on my andriod now doesn't allow me to jump to the first unread in a thread. It takes me to the 1st post even if it is several pages long. Works fine on non mobie devices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wexler Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Support for this site on mobile devices is broken, completely, and I am working (feverishly) to get it back functioning. The only options for mobile access and function now is either the IPB app (iPhone only) or Tapatalk. The site is certainly functional and useable on tablets (iPad, iPad mini, Galaxy, etc.) using full size browser pages. On Android phones you are just going to have to wait until it is fixed.

fieldmixer Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Tapatalk is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wexler Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Mobile Access is back, at least it is working on my iPhone now. There still seems to be a little bit of the black box "Loading..." problem going on, particularly when using the BACK arrows browser control. If you use instead the "PREV-" (previous) buttons it seems to work properly. Also, the black box will dismiss itself if you click around but I know that is annoying. Let me know if it is all working properly or not, especially Android users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil D Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yes, working again for me. Has a blue header and a box of 4 squares. Different to last time I tried, but definitely working on android. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Norflus Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Working here. Will live with the black box- its annoying but better than not having mobile view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil D Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Back in black theme today with 12 x boxes. Much faster loading than yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
