Android phone viewing problems

[Sproket]

For some reason the forum when viewed on my Samsung Galaxy S4mini can only be viewed properly when turned onto it's side 😱hmy:

I can log in ok & post ok with it but, It was possible to view the old forum either way up without a problem....

Is this fixable or is it to do with the new layout ?

Hi Sproket,

For some reason the forum when viewed on my Samsung Galaxy S4mini can only be viewed properly when turned onto it's side 😱hmy:

Is this fixable or is it to do with the new layout ?

Essentially, most of the new PCV site is responsive (that is it reacts nicely to different sized screens - or just browser window sizes on a desktop), but sadly the standard forum template isn't so designed and relies a lot on tables to acheive it's layout.

I've now installed some modifications to the default template that allow it to react better on mobile devices (or any narrow display) and will strip out less critical bits (e.g. various buttons etc) to let you read the content better.

I've tested it on a few devices we have here (iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S3) and it's certainly better. It could likely still benefit from a few more tweaks, but let me know how you get on with it!

Cheers

Col

Hi Col
Thanks for the tweaks that you have done, would it be possible to get the dates of posts squeezed in as well ?
