What wouldn't make sense is forcing people who regularly use those subforums to constantly turn off caps just for the convenience of people who don't post there much and want to insist on using caps. The solution is to learn not to use capital letters in yospos, etc., nerd.  Disable the shift keys altogether for those subforums, IMO. ...! fucked around with this message at 05:20 on Feb 22, 2020 |

I’m seeing weird behavior on YouTube videos- I swear I used to be able to tap on the video and it would open in the app, but now the only way I can get them to play in the YT app is to tap Share, then double-tap the url. Any ideas? Ps: THANK YOU for fixing the rotation crashing issue! (At least on my 6s+)

Awful 4.0 40005 latest iOS Backgrounding the app and then foregrounding it removes the back button. Not a big deal because I have swipe-right for forums list enabled, but it's a bit tedious if I'm a few thread links deep

Nice I ignored y'all for over a month this time! (Sorry.)The MUMPSorceress posted:OK random other thing but can you make gang tags/longvatars show up in the main thread view? Put it behind an option if you have to. It makes me sad I can't see my wizard lady next to my posts That would be awesome, I'll put it on the list. Nondevor posted:Also related to avatar stuff - I didn’t realize this until recently, but apparently the default one for new users has changed. On PC it’s currently Stupid Newbie with a picture of someone getting punched, but Awful app still shows it as the Trump avatar. I haven't paid attention, did this work itself out? Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I might be able to fix that from my end. ❤️ jackhunter64 posted:Noticed an issue with the new long press menu on the bookmark page, the Profile option is slightly off the edge of the popup window and can be grabbed and slid around. It's possibly because I'm on an iPhone SE, the same issue doesn't happen when long pressing in the forum page. Happens in dark mode too, screenshotted in light mode for ease of viewing: Whoops. That menu's long overdue for a rework, so I'll put this on that list  heeheex2 posted:it'd be nice to have data/wifi toggles for stuff so i don't have to manually turn all the post options off/on every time Which options are you toggling? Krazyface posted:Is there some way I can disable swipe-to-go-back? It seems overly sensitive, and often takes me out of a page without warning because my thumb just absently brushed the screen. I don't want to use this feature ever, the back button is enough for me. There isn't currently a way to disable that. It is pretty finicky though, often too easy or too hard to do and it doesn't match other apps. I need to figure out what we're doing wrong there. power crystals posted:If I leave the app and come back it seems to add a back button that does nothing, at least on ipad. Latest app/iOS as far as I know and this seems recent. I noticed that too. The code that used to do that was causing crashes when rotating on iOS 13, and what I forgot when I fixed it is that this is why that code was there in the first place. I'll add it to the list! Midjack posted:The graphic quotes in this post shows up black on gray background using the OLED dark theme. Clicking on the graphic brings it up with the expected white background. I'll take a look. History Comes Inside! posted:Tapping any links currently just opens the browser but doesn't load anything, and there's no way to back out of it except force closing the app. Haven't seen this one pop up in awhile! Good to know it's still a thing. Sorry to say I don't have any bright ideas, but I'll +1 it on the list. MarcusSA posted:Ok this is a weird bug and I’ll see if I can explain it correctly. Weird! email posted:Any chance we could get the ability to open links in Brave? Sure! Bust Rodd posted:I got an Autoban for posting a thread with a forbidden thread tag. I only post from my phone and the iPhone app doesn't have a warning that tells you "You will be automatically banned for using this tag!" anywhere in the app, so I basically just got owned for $10-40 bucks (if I have to rebuy all my upgrades). Can you please add that warning so phone posters don't GET GOT? Nah. OK, a less dismissive response: since the website does it, I'll consider it. Maybe buried somewhere in Settings. Come to think of it, I'm not sure there's a link to the rules anywhere in the app, should probably add one. Keith Atherton posted:Maybe a known issue but when scrolling a forum thread list and I trigger the "load next bunch of thread titles" point the view does a disorienting auto scrolling thing and I find myself having to scroll back up to figure out where I was focused It's meant to just magically load in the next page, but I think it gets confused if any threads changed pages in the meantime. Also possible the "magically load more" bit is hosed. I'll take a look. Stare-Out posted:Yeah I’m not quite sure why thread lists aren’t divided into pages like threads are, or, the actual forums are. I'm not really sure how it would work, and unlike posts nobody refers to "that thread on page 3", so it didn't make sense. Though I can see the appeal compared to a broken-rear end "magically load more". NFX posted:A couple of days ago my login expired, and when I logged back in a handful of settings were reset. I think it was mostly color schemes etc. is this on purpose? It's on purpose but not great. I wanted "log out" to double as an "erase everything" button. I think it's reasonable when you specifically ask to log out, but you didn't. It would be nice on session expiry to show some kind of "log back in?" screen that doesn't forget everything if you're the same user. So I'ma add that to the list! ulvir posted:is it just on my phone, or might there be an issue with previously stickied threads still hanging around at the top? it's not too big of a deal in general, but places like byob where stickied threads are cycled pretty regularly, this messes up pretty much everything wrt thread sorting It's not just you, gotta figure this one out. I'll +1 it on the list and thanks for the thorough report! power crystals posted:I’m not 100% sure of this and it’s not like this is something I can really reproduce, but I think that the last time my phone refreshed the forum list it had one announcement (the transphobia one) and now it has one again (the fast food forum one), but because it missed the narrow window where there were two it failed to mark the new announcement as unread. Announcements really suck. It's impressive how painful their implementation is. Honestly everything else is a piece of cake to scrape. `Nemesis posted:I guess the Android app has a search function on the smilies thing, and that sounds really cool and useful. It's on the list! Ugly In The Morning posted:Sometimes when I’m going to a thread from my bookmarks, the “previous post” button doesn’t appear so I have to go back a page and then forward to the one I was on. Is this a known issue? Does it show up if you scroll down then back up a bit, possibly lifting your finger in between those steps? Or does it just refuse to appear? teen witch posted:Weird quirk: not sure if it’s the apps or the site itself, but spoilers...don’t work with emojis! They sure don't! I'll add it to the list.

Grace Baiting posted:On iOS, if I start swiping from the right edge of the screen on the Forums or Bookmarks page to return to my most recent / currently open thread, the bottom tabs get super squished during that transition.

That’s Twitter datamining for referrals. In Safari hit the share menu at bottom center and copy link from there and it’s a clean URL without the referral bit at the end.

My complaint about it randomly shooting back to the top of the page when my finger is slightly overlapping the bezel and touching the edge of the screen seems to be getting worse. It doesn't seem to happen if nothing is touching, but if I'm holding it by the bezel and just bumping the screen, it seems to happen a lot. iPad Pro 11 so it's not a very big bezel and it's easy to accidentally do that.

You’re not accidentally touching the scroll indicator, are you? As of iOS 13, you can grab it to scroll quickly, but I find myself doing it accidentally all the time.

I am noticing a thing, not sure when it started, but when I long press a quoted picture to get the full one to pop up, I'm now getting a random amount of text selected in that area. Sometimes the "Cut/Copy/Whatever" dialog box comes up on top of the now-full-size picture. This seems to happen 100% of the time now and I'm pretty sure it didn't used to. iPad 11 Pro 2018 Is anyone else seeing this or is this something strange on my end? On a related note, I wouldn't mind if I didn't have to long press a quoted photo to make it full size, a single tap would be a lot easier, although it might conflict with photos that link, I dunno.

While my previous post about long pressing an image still is a thing, I just had this scroll to the top in a thread when I am positive my fingers weren't near any edge. I may take this thing to an apple store as it might have some sort of issue. I've only noticed it in Awful, that I can remember, but I don't use other apps that scroll all that often. Edit: now doing it more frequently and it happened twice in my pinball game where it randomly paused (the pause button is the top of the screen). Definitely hardware, will contact apple. This is not an awful app issue. Edit 2, on the off chance anyone is interested - I went into draw mode in the notes app, put the iPad Pro in landscape mode, and let it sit a while. I was hoping to get definitive evidence of phantom presses. It worked - There's a small dot where it drew with the phantom presses right on what would be the top edge of the screen in portrait mode. Hopefully Apple will replace it, I think I have applecare on it. ssb fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Mar 15, 2020 |

Unless something's changed in a recent Awful release, that almost always means someone on your list is now an mod or IK. If you have a lot of entries you can also max out the db field that stores that data (because naturally they're all concatenated into one field  ) -- if that's the case it won't work in the browser either despite no error message coming back
