Since the update, some threads have 1/3 of the screen on the right taken up by “thread statistics” and the actual post section is only 2/3 of the screen on my i-pad. This particular thread is full screen.? Has anyone else’s display gotten smaller and is there any way to get back to a full screen?

 

 

Yes, I'm getting the same thing on my iPad. The board is fine on my MacBook but on the iPad It's pushed to the side. Of course I always hold the iPad horizontally, not vertically like a phone when the web. Don't know if that makes any difference.

If you scroll back to the top of that page, you will see that the right side (blank) pane has the statistics (which seem useless).  Because of that, the entire right side of the page is left blank (since it hosts that statistics pane).

I am guessing that this is a setting that is activated on the admin side as default with the new software. There is probably a views or posting threshold that automatically activates it. I am sure Dave will look into it when he gets a chance. I have seen it on a few threads and do not see an easy way to turn it off (without a lot of trial and error)

Where is this appearing? Is it just certain threads, or perhaps certain sections. I'm going to open a problem ticket with the software vendor. I don't think I'll get any response before Monday.

I see it in this thread now. When I first posted in this thread on Wednesday, it was full screen. None of the threads in “under glass” display it and only some threads in other sections???

Edit: Steven’s ‘65 Plymouth thread does it in the under glass section.

Amazingly, their support people are available on weekends. They pointed me to some settings that needed to be changed. I've done that, and I no longer see the extraneous information. 

Please let me know if you still see it, and where.

Dave:

I have an older iPad and I am now unable to post messages, view the bottom 20 percent of all pages, or see most of the posted picture links. Otherwise the new upgrade is great...,sigh

Not sure what to suggest. It does work fine on my iPad, and it seems like it should work fine on yours. If you haven't tried this yet, thy turning the iPad off, then on again. I find that clears up a lot of strange behavior that can set in when they're left on for very long periods of time.

Yes Dave I did that as well as clearing website data from Safari through the control icon. No luck. Oh well. Will just have to view the site from my tiny screen iPhone until I invest in a new iPad. Thanks for responding back.

It is there, but they moved (hid) it.  It is those 3 dots on the upper right.  Clock to open a menu. Very silly.

I had the same problem... Now I know what to do....?? 

It works!....

I used to link photos from my Fotki account but ever since this board generously agreed to store all the photos I’ve been sending the photos to the board. 

Still I have a lot of my photos on Fotki, but I will download them to my phone, then put them on the board.

Even though Fotki has been stable for a while,  addresses for some photos randomly changed when they moved all their servers, or same will happen if something moves their photos and albums around in their account. And the link will go dead if someone closes their account.

The ads I'm seeing are as large as member's posts - anything I can do to make them smaller?

Sadly, no. I'll be working on that tonight.
