Site behaviour on Android device
« on: October 15, 2014, 07:58:46 am »
I've tried viewing this site via my phone (as I've always been able to do in the past) and I find now that if try to reply to thread it takes me back to the 'Forum' front page. Maybe a compatibility issue??

Just for info  :happy2:

Gone but not forgotten :-)

I have an issue where at times the forum appears offline, and it's a while before I can access it again (even though using a laptop/PC at the same time shows the forum is up). I use the stock Android 4.4 browser on my tablet.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

I get exactly this too. Also if I click on a name.

If I long press and open in new tab it's fine.

Using chrome on Sony Xperia Z2 running 4.4.1 (I think).

Tapatalk seems fine but I don't like it.

I wasn't able to get on at all using my mobile if on wifi but could on the laptop. But it would work on my mobile of i turned the wifi off. Works fine now though.

I messed up the DNS servers for a couple of days this caused the weirdness between mobile/wifi. Think its sorted now
