Fine now on android phone and PC. I recently had an issue with a website I was working on with similar to yours. That's how I could pinpoint your problem quickly, just one css setting set to a fixed value really throws a spanner in the works and it was a devil to find for me because it was somebody else's edit.

The update looks good too, thanks for all the hard work keeping things running smoothly

when i reply,

i get rather big and 'thick black' font in the comment area.
it's a bit unpleasant to be honest, it was better before when the font
was exactly the same as what you post.

it now looks like this when i type my comment in:

Seems to be the new world order, aka Facebook's way of doing things as well lol !

If you type enough characters it goes back to the normal non bold font there, but I've have talked rubbish long enough in this post to prove that's not the case with the new F1Tech upgrade :wink:

Seeing as I'm losing my eye sight now I'm getting a bit older, I don't mind it to be honest.

As far as my mobile goes, all is well.
Thanks for the fast fix guys, the upgrade now looks great.

Similar topics list is now also back and fixed.
Tapatalk fixed as well.

So, some of the new features:
- Better quoting, which now contains date and link to quoted post
- Improved notification system, making posting faster
- Support for emojis
- Some layout changes (icons etc)

Is there any reason why only the "Unread posts" tab has a coloured icon, although I don't have any unread posts? Or is that only on my side?

It was previously white vs orange, so more or less the same :)
Want more colours?

The plugin has a setting, and it was disabled for a long time.
Are they screwing with us?

Please post your device details, I'll try to mock it and see if I get it as well.

Personally, I'd like to remove tapatalk altogether, but it appears to have some fanatic users...

I would like to say that the new quoting system is a big improvement, you can jump straight to the quoted post even when that quote was quoted. =D> Quoteception.

The tapatalk message is quite intrusive indeed when you visit the site on a mobile device. I don't use tapatalk either, it has become useless a long time ago with the automatic-scaling of websites and fora of today.

The "smart banner" from tapatalk is gone now ;)
Seems like the setting didn't work, so dug into their code to kick it out :mrgreen:

For your information, the CODE-Tags seem to be broken. Returns don't translate to endofline.

I also noticed today that quick reply isn't working correctly for me anymore.
Anybody that can confirm this?

Just want to say thanks for the 'jump to quoted post' feature... I always missed being able to do that! 8)
