Folding Forum

Not sure if it is just me, but in order to change the page when in a thread, I have to ask for the desktop version, click the page number, then switch back to the mobile site. Am I missing something? I am on Android 10 Firefox 68.7.0

Edit: I had missed something. Thanks Rel25917!

Probably not tbh … This BB software has been been around since the ark - it has probably never realised that mobile phones with browsers exist !! … Chrome on my phone doesn't even offer me a mobile site variant … the fact that it even appears to have some semblance of a mobile site capability astounds me

… and I await the most deserved bricks that will be thrown in my direction for scoffing at the institution that is phpBB

The rest of the mobile site looks and responds nicely, but it looks like they never imagined that any thread would ever go past 1 page.

No bricks from me, or probably any of the other admins and moderators. The admin who did the install of this version of the phpBB software and add-ons was away from participating in the forum for a while due to family circumstances. They are back, but can do limited support work. I started looking into what was involved in updating a while back, maybe after this COVID-19 response we will update to a more current version.

Really, I wasn't complaining … If it ain't broke and all that … Yup it is a bit dated but it is serviceably functional - and to be honest I was taking the mick about the age of the software as a package not so much the current version.

It's there, look for the # at the bottom and click it, took me a long time to figure that one out.

Oh my gosh, thanks!

Thanks, Rel25917.
