• After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.

We've upgraded to XenForo! Help us iron out the bugs!

The Win7 forum, for instance, has a sidebar list of recent posts. Being that you have so much real estate now, maybe the new AF could do something similar?

Now I see 'related posts' trailing off way at the bottom, a place nobody goes.

That seems to be a function of screen resolution. If you try zooming in and out, at least on PC, you can see that they usually live to the right of the page, until you zoom in too far. At that point it bumps them down to the bottom of the page and stretches out the thread content.
 
When I get kicked out, I can't log in from any platform or browser, automatic or explicit, until I do a phone Chrome auto login. 158 members logged in says the problem is pernicious imo. And yeah, I've cleared my browsers lol.

Tapatalk alternates between giving the login form and only giving the social networking login, the latter of which I have no use for.
 
The Android Lounge is now Android News & Talk - bold choice! :D

Still don't have privileges to post in the announcement thread.

Many of the others I couldn't post in seem to be fine now.

By golly, you're right. But I have to enlarge my browser window way beyond what I'm comfortable with and there's plenty of room to do the right-side sidebar at my usual width, like the old AF and the forum pic shown above. Seems like they just have to change the trigger point.
 
Using Firefox on my Asus tablet. The site isn't automatically scaling, adjusting.
 
Well this update sucks for me. My original user (Biaviian) can't access a single thing after logging in. I get errors all over the place. I get errors when viewing the forums, when viewing recent posts, when viewing my own profile. Once I log in I can't do a single thing except get errors and log out. Any ideas besides just using this new account?

we have the same problem here
 
Signatures are very limited and don't have the same functions as when we were testing XenForo.

Links don't work at all, even with BB code and HTML
Only two lines.
Roughly 100-140 character limit.
 
Threads I had not opened were in bold. Once opened it was not in bold until someone posted in that thread. I didn't realize how helpful that was until now. The change may have made this forum prettier but it has removed some useful functionality.
Please, if possible, add the basic user information back to the avatar area and make it easy to see which posts I've checked at a glance.

I'm seeing it differently. All thread titles are bold regardless if they have a new post or not. However the user name in the Last Post column is bold when there's a new post and not bold when there's no new posts.

Also, a blue circle to the left of a thread title means a new post(s), and clicking it takes you to it. :)

Ahhh, that works. Thank you very much!
 
Yeah, the blue circle indicates unread posts, so it will highlight unread threads as well as updated threads.
 
O.K. I have a couple more questions. Have we lost the ability to thank people via a thanks button? Also, are we no longer able to edit posts?
And of course the basic user info was really useful when trying to help people. I just suggested app ops starter to someone and I have no idea if they are running a version of android that supports it.
 
Well, i don't know what to do but give you time to get the bugs out :( No desktop view (bummer) ,errors everywhere! I can read posts at the top of the page, but as i read down, posts get skinny, then vertical, unreadable! I'll see if i can post screenshots.
