Forums upgraded to phpBB 3.0.11

Post by orudge »

I've upgraded the forums to phpBB 3.0.11. As always, if anybody notices any glitches or bugs, please let me know.

I've also upgraded the Tapatalk plugin. The new version supports things like push notifications and a Chrome extension of some sort, but those are presently disabled because they require changes to the phpBB codebase itself, which I'd rather not make at present. If lots of people want them, I could implement them.

Is it me or is the default display size for the board different from earlier version? I see a striking change in this versiom. My desktop is at 1920 x 1080px.

What do you mean? Can you provide a screenshot? Nothing seems different to me.

Of course I can.

The text and forum post icons are smaller now, it all looks more stretched.

If you could post an actual sized image, rather than a reduced screenshot, it may be more useful. But certainly, nothing seems to have changed for me, even after a hard refresh.

That's why the app wasn't working this morning. I haven't really noticed much of a difference, though Tapatalk is an awful app. Who else uses it?

Edit: Just noticed something peculiar. I can still see threads that have been put in the Spam Bin and the Private area through Tapatalk! I have checked and they don't appear in a browser. While I cannot read the full thread, I can see the beginning of the first post and the thread name. It is quite annoying since I have to view the spam that has been dealt with already, so I cannot report it.

Pictures:

An example of two threads in the Private area and one in the Spam bin. These should not be viewable.

This shows the thread opened in tapatalk, I cannot view the thread.

It is not you. Normally I can see from Off-Topic to TTDP suggestions, last night I could see from Off-Topic to Locomotion Beginners on one screen. Interestingly it is now back to normal again.

Well, that should certainly not be happening. As such, I've removed the Tapatalk plug-in until such time as they can provide a fix.

EDIT: OK, it looks like they already have a fix up on their forum, which I have now applied.
