Mobile Metabunk

[Stewart Kay]

Browsing on my phone (Huawei p30 pro with andriod all updates etc..) i cant ever get to page 2 of a topic.

Example is, lets say General discussion https://www.metabunk.org/forums/general-discussion.2/

I can only see 15 or 20 topics on mobile with no -> next . Yet on my PC it goes on and on, and on with and next page ->
No next page on mobile ?

You don't see this at the bottom?

 

[Stewart Kay]

Yes, i see the topics list, and next page to the topic i wanted to read has forward pages. Older topics in the particular subject thread can't be seen. I think the word is scrolling down, i get to the bottom of a topic area (not a post) and its dead end on mobile, It just lists recent posts. But on PC it keeps going Page 1, 2, 3 etc
Sorry if im coming over stumped

ok this is a little crazy as the font is so super tiny... if you click the 3dots on top of each other way up in the upper right hand corner of your phone. one option says "desktop site". if you hit tht then all the threads show

 

[deirdre]

My screenshot was taken from my phone.

i think his wording was a bit off.. let's see if what i suggested fixes it for him. i think he is on the main General Discussion Page List. that only shows 20 active threads. until i clicked that "Desktop site" button.

 

[deirdre]

this is a nightmare trying to get a screengrab onto this site lol... anyway tap these three dots, then choose "desktop site"

 

[Stewart Kay]

Active threads or inactive threads its ok on PC, But phone dont like it. Sorry if my wording was off, its 02:45am screen off mobile attched (ive been up scince 05:00am !

 

[Stewart Kay]

Ooo yours is different to mine! lol

 

[deirdre]

Ooo yours is different to mine! lol

Look under the subforum list, I have it there on the forum you linked.

 

[Stewart Kay]

I do pop on many forums using my phone, mysterys; ufos and weather related, never had this problem on looking into archive posts. On my tablet its ok Fire 10 i think, that dispays ok. Oh well its least of trouble just thought i mention it.

yea that's where it was just a plain grey bar.

Thats the part iam missing and so is @deirdre i we think !

 

[Stewart Kay]

Posted at same time, same issue^

i have the page numbers now, as i fixed it. but i have Chrome browser.

Do you know what the name of the browser your phone uses is?

 

[Stewart Kay]

Runs Android 10 EMUI V 11, 8GB ram (my pc has 4!) Browser is the standard issue from huwawi or however its spelt, not or never logged into it.

 

[Mendel]

Thats the part iam missing

that's not the place your screenshot shows, though
I'm thinking you're maybe looking at the bottom when it's at the top, so I'd like to confirm that's not the case.

What is your screen size in pixels?

 

[Stewart Kay]

At the top i see unwatch ... down arrow
maybe its im a newbie?

Full pixel for a P30 pro 1080 x 2340 clarity is ace to say the least old but good

 

[Mendel]

At the top i see unwatch ... down

if you see "unwatch" you are not on a forum list

How about https://www.metabunk.org/forums/how-to.42/ ?
That should look like this

or this

 

[Stewart Kay]

Sorry for late replying. @ Mendel note the difference!
I have found if put my mobile browser into 'computer mode', as apposed to default mode the older threads show up. With a magifying glass!


(Ive just tryed this on firefox mobile too, same results)
I see this:


But on Mobile browser(s) i see this No option to page two:

No next page on mobile ?

I've disabled a couple of plugins that might have been causing the issue. Can you try it now?

The Next Page button only appears at the bottom of the thread list in mobile.

yup i have the next button now in non-desktop mode. (Chrome on Android) which is nice as my fonts are readable now.

it appears at the top and bottom for me now (mobile Android tablet) when it only appeared at the top before

 

[Stewart Kay]

Thanks all, working great now just checked on mobile, standard settings too. FYI The next page button is at the bottom left.

 

[Mick West]

Great! The plugins were older ones that seem to have just got out of date with the various updates to Xenforo. It's actually cleaner in general without them.
