Why would you not have javascript enabled anyway Terry?

So that is the only issue on mobiles and you think the rest of the issues are on a laptop/desktop?

I have to turn off JavaScript to get the site to work enough to use on mobile. On a 3.5 inch display the ads cause problems, prior to them it didn't matter. The ads pop up over the whole edit box when you go into advanced so you can't see what you are typing and you have to find the tiny x to close them. It's less hassle to leave JavaScript off. When you introduced the ads my phone started struggling with the site. The delays in loading the ads causes the screen to open then snap downwards so that if you don't wait a few seconds you will end up having your screen press registered against a thread higher up the screen. But spacing wasn't affected by turning off until this upgrade.

It saved me needing an adblocker just due to NMP but I can have a scout around for one if it's something that won't be changing on NMP.

The rest of the issues may exist on mobile too, I have been on my laptop more the last few days, but they all occurred on laptop so not specific to mobile.

Click on the window you would like to capture.
Press Ctrl + Print Screen (Print Scrn) by holding down the Ctrl key and then pressing the Print Screen key. ...
Click the Start button, located on the lower left-hand side of your desktop.
Click on All Programs.
Click on Accessories.
Click on Paint.

or just type "paint" in to the "search programs" box to search for it

Won't you then have to save it as a file and use the insert image function to upload it?

On that note, have you noticed that has changed? Whilst the manage attachments function is still in advanced you can now do the upload straight to the post, which is an improvement (not tried it yet), but you may need to update your guides. The insert image function also has a slight issue with using urls as there is a check box that needs to be unticked each time (I have just tested this in a thread).

Have you noticed that someone has signed up and added links immediately? Has the >10 posts been removed fpr the spammers?

Also, I came to edit a sentence using my mobile (Javascript off, I've switched it on to write this and correct the spacing in the post mentioned) that I wrote earlier on my laptop. I deleted out the middle. When I clicked save it deleted all the paragraph spacing. It also now shows text I copied from a link but without the earlier text formatting yet if you look at it in the edit function you can clearly see the rags

This might be where the mobile version is the issue. Worth you knowing so you can determine if it's working as you want it too. None of this happened on the old forum so I'm guessing this might be a tweaking issue?

I am having problems posting at times due to the screen "hanging" a bit.

I wonder if it is related to the autosave?

I touch type so tend to go quite fast and it is only recording every 2nd or 3rd letter I type.

Thanks venus and nic, if this thing does it again I'll try and get a screenshot

I was browsing/reading this morning and got a message from Wordpress that I had exceeded more page errors than a human could possibly have and it blocked me for a few minutes.

It was set at 30 seconds. I have upped it to 60 seconds. If that is not enough we can up it again Elen.
