Besides the Blackberry ad in the middle of the top?

I hope the mobile version works with IE10.

 

[stmav]

Well, it's definitely a mobile version. Very plain. I'll fire up the Surface and see what it looks like there.

Guess they turned it off. But did get a chance to check it on the Surface with Metro IE10. Looked just the same as IE10 on the laptop.

Did notice one thing. Mod wise, all we can do is edit and delete posts. Didn't see a way to do anything else.

Good cuz the current one is fuuggggly, no offense. Good thing the keyboard situation is being worked on so I don't have to see it again.

You have to chose the skin its not the black one. From the default style go down to the skins list in the bottom left of the screen and pick the Mobile default.

Does it have the mod tools? I've always used desktop version of site on mobile, since the mobile view lacked the mod tools.

Not that I can see.

I won't use it then.

It needs more mod tools. Currently it only has edit and ip check. I will ask James what and when we can expect mod tools to be added.

 

[Dave Blake]

I was wrong we do have mod tools. Almost everything is there it just takes.a while to figure everything out and where its hidden. Its rocking fast on my 920 and no more keyboard bug with pages jumping around.

Ok, I found some mod tools like when you click on moderation tools after the last post in a thread. But still can't find infractions or how to get to a profile to ban and clean.

I don't see those either. Its probably best if we go to the standard view before we do those anyways. Just to make sure we don't make any mistakes.

passport is not mobile user friendly in the mobile mode. I have to go to the desktop version to log in with chrome or firefox

 

[eric12341]

Checking it out now, pretty nice. I prefer the full view tho.

old mobile site let us infract. I did it on a couple of occasions where I needed damage control there and then and was away from a computer.
