The last time I mentioned this I should have kept my mouth shut. I said that the links at the bottom of the page should say first page/last page since it went to the top of the last page, not to the last post.



Then it got changed to actually go to the last post, which to me kinda sucks because then I go Last Post >end of last page>immediately scroll back to top of last page.

Maybe other people want to catch up by only reading the very last post of a thread but I pretty much always want a little context so starting at the top of the last page of the thread was way better.

E- and for a real error, when I posted this minor complaint I got the image upload failed/code 100 error that comes from screenshots most of the time, but there wasn't any way to clear the error message so I had to force quit.

Minor quibbles aside, thanks for everything I love the app.

I don’t follow the thread so forgive me if these were already posted:

1- after hitting preview the post is displayed as a preview but the preview button stays, never changing to “post”. I have to back out of the post completely then hit the pen/post button from the thread view which takes me back to preview, but this time with the post button.

2- lately the bottom quarter or so of the screen goes gray and I’m not sure what’s triggering it. If I tap in the gray then the whole screen goes gray.

I’m on an 8+ with the latest version of the test app. I can add details if needed.

The app crashes every time I go into portrait mode, so whenever I tilt my phone a little too much it crashes.

I’m on a 8 plus with the latest update.

E- nm I reinstalled and it’s ok :downs:

E2- nope it’s back. Turn the phone and the app crashes

Same here, on iPhone 6s with the latest iOS 13.

Is this only happening on older phones? I kind of expected the thread to be filled with people reporting this happening. Sucks how often I get crashes now

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?

Happens to me too. Also the thread title disappears.

Breadnroses.net has potential maybe as a post SA site? If the poo poo hits the fan maybe we can rebuild a new Awful app there. It'll be fun coming up with a new app name!

Bmr seems to have the most potential so far but could really use an app like this. It’s a little hard for me to read and makes me very aware of what a great job you guys did with awful.app. Thank you! I used the gently caress out of it and loved it.

How do you post gifs from the iOS photo album?

I tried posting like an image but it didn’t animate.

I've observed this happening when we're restored after some time in the background. I think the WebView preparation code isn't re-running correcting in that case, or something. Usually it goes away if I go to any other thread than the one that was loaded when I put Awful into the background. Does that match your experience?

That’s exactly what happens for me fwiw

I’m hoping it’s a glitch because I love them.

I’ve noticed this bug that might be well known but I don’t follow the thread, so here goes: I’ve notice that when I’m in the newest page of a thread and click a quoted post to try to get to that original post, if a new post has been made in the meantime the page will just show that new post and ignores the fact that I clicked on a link to an earlier one. Even if I load previous posts then try clicking on the quoted post link again the same thing happens. That link will only work if I reload the page.

Hope that makes sense.

E- I’m on an 8 plus with latest iOS and awful test version

I actually feel like the intent was for it to be last page and maybe something got mixed up?

I blame myself, it used to say last post but went to the top of the last page. I thought they might want it to say last page instead of post but instead it got changed to go to the bottom of the page :shrug:

There used to be a shortcut for Imgur uploads that didn’t make you save the photo first, Is that not possible anymore? You could just copy from a site and upload in one shot.

This one is more robust and will do that for you, but also doesn't automatically wrap the URL in img tags. You can add that in if you want though

Warbird posted:

Additionally you can tweak the “saved photo” one to copy from clipboard and more or less be good to go.

If any of you kind bitches make these changes please post a link or directions, I’m dumb and will gently caress it up otherwise but I miss when I had one that did all this until it broke

Hey can the format option when text is highlighted be moved to the front?

I’m on iOS and given the layout I think “no” is the answer but gently caress I use those more than any other option in that menu except [img] and paste

not sure what you mean. if i click on a thread, the first post i see is one i haven't marked read yet. if i realize it has a big rear end video i can't watch right now i want to return it to unread so i can see it later. to do that, i have to load previous posts and then locate the post right above the one that initially loaded first, and mark THAT post as my last read. so to get back where i was before i need to load more posts and scroll
to the right spot.

if it marked as first *unread* instead i could just do that on the post i can't fully consume yet, and go back to the index.

doesn't matter since i don't imagine it will change

edit: oh if you're saying you have to have the post visible in your field of view and thus it only makes sense to say it is read, then i disagree. lmfao

I agree with all of this, I’ve been meaning to ask if it could be changed but always figured it would be too low priority
