I am still getting nesting issues on the iPhone. Articles will be nested until one article is just 1 character wide.
I'm not seeing this -- which iOS version?
5.1.1(?)Too outdated?
Hmm... Shouldn't be. I've got an original iPad running 5.1.1 and the forums look normal using the full skin or mobile skin. Have you tried clearing your cache?
Same problem here. It happens when there are a bunch of quotes in a row. The GoT big thread has some recent examples.
Gotcha -- it sounds like an issue with post formatting, maye tied in with post composition using the old standard editor. Hopefully, the ongoing post content rebuild will fix it.

Did tags get axed already?
Yep. They'll be back but the tags will have to be predefined. Letting folks create them seemed like a cool idea, but it led only to shtick. My bad.
Oh yee of large faith...
No harm, no foul -- just thought it was worth a shot.
I know, that's what I'm saying. I appreciate that you have enough faith in us to think it was worth a shot :D Alas...

This is a bad thing?????
Yeah, I guess I don't really see the harm unless someone was circumventing the language filter or something. Can we get back subtitles then?
Subtitties?

I'd take those too

 
Y'all should be able to 'like' stuff now, BTW. Reputation system should be LIVE.

Maybe this has been addressed already but: Is there a function similar to the "Topics I replied to" sorting option?

 
MF...any word on iOS 6 format options coming back? I can only retain so much code. TIA
Text formatting in posts? I'll ask.
I mean I still cannot see any of the format tools at all in iOS 6 on iPhone 5. All I have is a text box. In mobile and full.
Yeah, that's what I meant. I don't think there is a formatting bar in the mobile skin. I don't see one, either.
So none for mobile or full on iOS? Used to be there in full mode.

On the blue bar just below the page numbers at the top of the forum topic view screen, click the "Custom" dropdown and all the old filters are located there under the "Show topic type" dropdown.

Sorry, I missed the reference to full mode in your post. I was surprised as the old editor (though clunky) worked on iPad in 3.1.4, but I am seeing the same results.

After digging around, it sounds like the new editor (ckEditor) does not currently work well on the iPad. According to the post below, Invision is targeting the next major release to add it. That's unfortunate -- it's going to be a while before that drops.

If there is a lack of space, put the subtitle part in the place of who started the thread and when it was started. Who cares who started the thread?

Pretty unfortunate for us iPhone browsers, but such is life. Thank you for looking into it.
 
Seems like the wait time in between searches has decreased, which is nice. Used to be 20 seconds, I think.
Yeah, I cut the search flood and the post flood settings in half for all board members. I cranked the search wait up to 30 seconds for guests because it looks like bots and spiders running searches are the main cause of random load spikes.

Let's see how she runs.

 
Sorry, but this is just ridiculous and unacceptable. A lot of us work in office environments and don't have administrative capabilities on our computers to use a browser plugin. What is to prevent somebody from posting a bunch of blue waffles. Sure they will get banned, but the damage could be significantly worse for somebody else who has that show up on their monitor at work. And you can always create an alias.

I won't be visiting this site any more if this isn't fixed.

There is no longer a way to turn pictures completely off within the software. It's possible to block them using a browser plugin like AdBlock, or you can use the mobile version, which uses smaller/minimal images and less bandwidth overall.

Chrome and associated extensions can be installed without admin privileges... I'm just sayin'

IT won't install any browser other than IE, and only they can run install programs.
