Forum issues on smart phone

[dickythorpe]

Very jumpy of late.
I'm ended up putting smilies in when I didn't click on them.

Yep agree. My screen jumps around like billy-oh. Takes too long to settle and I end up tapping on something I didn't want to. Ok on a pc though

I know I'm a stuck record on this issue :lol: but the forum has always jumped around really badly on iPhone/iPad for me. Always got to wait 4 or 5 seconds for all of the ads to load in every time I click on a thread/forum. I always have to scroll down ready in anticipation of the threads moving down and off the screen (so much so that I've started to do this on other forums out of habit :lol: ).

Had no issues on PC (Chrome) though.

Snap. I call it clunk clunk, flash flash. WOL site is even worse.

It reminds me of the old tellies, where you had to wait for the valves to warm up.

Sorry meant to reply to this one last night - tried some tweaks on this yesterday - I only tend to browse here via the laptop so I dont always see the issues on a phone

I have (I think) changed some settings that should improve this but can those getting the issue let me know if that has made a difference

Blaze made a point a while back about the ad in the middle of the posts, I think I have removed that totally now

Finally, seen a couple of comments about pop ups. There is a "sticky" at the bottom of the forum that is only visible when logged out but that should be it as far as I can see so again shout if you get pop ups (and remember a pop up is different to an add that sticks at the bottom of the page - both can be equally as annoying but just key to understand which is which when I go to the people that serve the ads

All ads are tried to be kept to a minimum where possible and designed to cover hosting costs

Thanks Phil. I'll keep a watch on it and let you know. But tbh today I don't notice any difference.

Every time i click on the new board and then click on football only board or even non football board it drops down so that you end up clicking on something you don't want. Have to generally wait 3 or 4 seconds after clicking on something for it to settle. Did the same when i clicked on to reply to this thread. Have a Samsung galaxy s7 edge on android.

Okay sounds like the changes I made didn't make a difference. Let me look at it again later on, I think it is the ad at the very top of the page that is causing the problems, it seems slow loading which means the forum loads, people start to read/click and then it loads causing the drop down

I just need 20 minutes of peace to do it so better not try it now or the forum may disappear altogether!

 

[dickythorpe]

Thanks for trying Phil

 

[Itchysphincter]

Always been fine on iPhone for me but crap on laptop. I started using the Avast browser with built in ad-blocker just for PS and it’s perfect now.

Works very well on a android phone using chrome for me

Phil has designed the site rendering around Darran's iPhone 4 :lol:

Much better on my Samsung phone, it's android obviously, running Samsung internet browser
