    Firstly, I'm hoping this is in the right place, secondly, I can't view the forum when using an ipad. I can sign in, see the home page, sort of. I don't get anything below the blue search bar. I can click on New posts, and they are viewable, but when I go back to the home screen, it's blank below the Blue search bar. It all works on my pc, so do I need to change a setting on the ipad?

    regards.

    Tony

    Tony — it’s a problem with the css and the carasoul, whilst it appears blank scroll down on the iPad and eventually you will get to content — it’s the same on the iPhone

    I know Paul is aware of the problem and it is no more than a tweak to the css file which I am sure Paul will get to asap

    Glad Tany has confidence in me, and it will get fixed, in the short term, for any tablet or phone, if you are not logged in then clicking on the Recent posts upload_2018-2-25_21-39-43.png

    Will give a listing readable on a small screen device,

    if you are logged in then clicking on the New Posts option gives the same upload_2018-2-25_21-41-39.png

    Thanks both, I'll use the workaround when on the iPad. Looks great on the PC though.

    Hi Anthony
    Another work around at the moment is there can be a big difference in the view between portrait and landscape view on the iPad why who knows
    but all that blank space disappeared and you get full post titles across the screen on portrait view compared to land scape :hammer:

    Hi Chris, I tried the landscape view but it seems to reduce the width of the centre panes, to the point that they are unreadable.

    I'll just stick to the PC for a while I think.
