Technical issue (Americas, 17.05)

I thought it would illustrate that you need to flip through our pages just the same way he’s doing :melting_face:

I’m sorry if you didn’t like the gif. I didn’t mean it and I’m really thankful for your help with giving me updates today. You are very welcome here :slight_smile:

kinda good seeing you back with us , still got that calming presence i see lol

New issue for me with the forum @kaya its keeps going into dark mode, I set it back to light mode and then it automatically goes back to dark mode

What do you use to make your videos? Firefox and Edge both fail to play the video…

iPad, it’s a .mov codec

ok, my browser doesn’t support the codec.

When I joined this site it was always in dark mode. I didn’t even know there was an option. Maybe it’s cause my iPad is set to dark mode. I’m fine with it like this.

I hope carlos one keeps changing to dark mode :grin: :pray:

@kaya It’s not a pleasant experience to go back in time on this forum. Scrolling up results in like a reset of the page and it breaks the smooth flow of scrolling into the past. It’s like it breaks the page or something. Is there any way to make it so the page scrolls more smoothly. The bar on the right side can be used to scroll back in time, but it doesn’t really scrub the thread. I mean like you can’t see the thread contents as you scroll with the bar. Anyways can that be fixed?

I confirm there is a strange bug (but for me its working fine with PC but I have this with me phone) and we’ll look into it tomorrow.

Suggestion for now – I assume it’s broken when you PC interface is set to dark mode. You can try switching to light mode in your PC global settings and it should make forum go to light colours. I know it may be not the best solution, but if reading in dark mode is uncomfortable for your eyes, it’s better than nothing :pensive:

Are you using PC or mobile device?

Happens for me right now on phone its dark was on PC all evening and was fine

Same idea – setting light mode on your device should switch forum to light one

Mobile device. iPad usually. Very unpleasant experience going back in time.

So we can
A) navigate with a usual browser scroll just as on any site
B) navigate with special forum scrollbar (opens when you click posts counter on the bottom of the page). It’s helpful to get to the start of topic or to specific date, but not really comfortable for regular scrolling

As far as I understand you’re talking about scroll from option B – then I agree and I think regular page scroll would fit your needs better?

Well, I’m trying to go back in time by going from the bottom of the topic back up. It works for bit, but then the page resets and it’s not entirely clear where I am. I scroll more back up and it does it again.

How can I make it so when I click on a topic it takes me to the last post I read? Perhaps scrolling down works better.

Ok, scrolling from the top down seems to work a whole lot better.

Is there a way to set it so that when I click on a topic it always takes me directly to the last page post that I read?

Thanks @crossmyway :wink:

You’ve already got a correct answer - “last visit” line is designed for this

Regarding scroll - unfortunately, the only way to manage such invonveniences with loading is to navigate with internal scrollbar or check on the post counter I guess.

Aha! I see that now. It does take me to the last post I read. Cool! :blush:
