Does it bug anyone else that when you bookmark or watch a thread in GTI, you get linked to a page from an older skin?

Amateur night.

Ok..That shouldn't be happening.

Can you upload a screenshot for me of the offending page(s) so we can try and replicate this issue in house.
As always having what machine, OS, and browser you are using would help greatly.

Thanks

GTI skin, mobile android device, go to a thread you are not watching, click on Watch or Bookmark, you get taken to the 'you are now watching this thread' page but how the page would look if you were using the Big Blue skin.

That happens in several places. Will report back when it happens again.

^^ Indeed.

We get told about 'weekly updates' but there's been fk all progress on the garbage LAF of this website since the initial GTI mass migration. I can only imagine the updates are tweaks to the classifieds and the glut of targetted advertising.

Hi hornetrider,

Thanks for your feedback. I have noted it down to be investigated. It might be that the wrong page is being used or it might be that the mobile-optimised view for that page doesn't exist. Will have to look into it.

Thanks,
Dom

While we're at it. My Stuff on GTI no longer seems to be wrapping thread titles, whereas What's new still does.

Why the change?

What's the result of the investigation Dom? Sorry to rush you, I know it's only been six weeks.

Hi hornetrider,

Thanks or the reminder. The mobile optimised view for this page doesn't exist - it must have been missed off during the development of the GTi skin. It will be implemented at some point, but unfortunately I can't give a timescale.

That looks to be a separate issue that I'll log as a bug.

Thanks,
