Off to the pub??? We haven't left since lunchtime

That works on my Nexus 5 & chrome.

Eta. Ghostery browser too.

But on Nexus 9 it's rubbish! Portrait & Landscape.

The fix for that will go out at the beginning of next week.

Update from the mother ship on a Friday.

We have released a hotfix for:

• Go to last read post in My Stuff - If you click on the topic title then you will go to your last read position automatically (assumption that if it is in My Stuff then you have previously read it and thus will always want to go to the last read position)

Good stuff, it works well on iPhone 6.

Why do I keep getting logged out?

I used to always be logged in but now it automatically logs me out at random about once a day.

What device is this on?

I'm getting super critical, but I think it'll make for a nicer experience.

The '...' On links is just plain black text, make it part of the link. Also, make the whole div clickable in my stuff, rather than the topic title.

[Craikeybaby]

If you try to click a link which has already been visited you get a "Nothing to see here" page on iPhone.

I don't, tried clearing cache?

Modern Toshiba Laptop running Windows 10. Chrome browser.

I think it started logging me out while still running Win 8.1 before I upgraded to Win 10.

And on HTC One X.

Only jumped me the last page, not the last read post on Windows phone. Need that jumps to bottom of page button back.

The fact that after more than a week there are still major issues being fixed makes the initial excuses about it being just a server issue look rather thin.

It seems to be working fine now.

Jump to last read post works on my iPhone 4 now.

Is the enormous button bar on a landscape phone on the list?

This is the entire screen on my iPhone 5S:

It's working fine on my Galaxy S3 mini. In fact set it back to GTI and left it there. Not tried on ipad or laptop. Sorry.

Minor things noticed.
It doesn't allow you to zoom the screen if you want to look at an image in more detail.
At the top of the screen a green dot appears next to the drawing of a man. Assume this is when you're logged in? If so it seems to log me out and then automatically back in a lot, and whilst it's doing that slows right down.
As mentioned before seems to be more difficult to click on links and buttons. Almost as if a "snap to" setting is missing or too tight.

Agree on the last point. The 'quote' and 'quote all' buttons are far to close together.

Update on this...

We are working through the top 25 mobile devices that hit the site to make sure the markup looks right on them - this is taking longer than we imagined (testing all forum pages in both orientation on device) so we have delayed a few releases based on this work.

Feedback on the spacing of buttons, font sizes etc are also being reviewed at the moment and will be discussed by the product team.

This is PH, we don't know why they do it differently, they just do. Never come across a site with nav at the bottom...

I don't have the same issue though, if the menu bar comes up, it moves the PH one up.
