Issue on iOS loading mobile site

thereitisgone

As headline says for the last week when using boards.ie the add space on the right of the page is a problem when i open a thread the words on that side of the page are hidden behind the add. Anyone had this problem before.

Suzyq

Having the same problem.

Steve

Can you take a screenshot and post it?

Thread would be better suited in the dev forum where the site techs would see it but a screeenshot / picture would be also be useful for them.

Avada

To do with this per chance?

Ok just clicked on a posy to take screenshot and problem has gone everything good again. I did nothing to try and fix it so very strange. If it comes back again will take screenshot and post.

Dav

Please do, it'd be a big help because that's definitely not behaving as it should be.

reera82

Same thing happening to me. Just tried uploading a screenshot. Hopefully it works.

Having a problem with the ad when on an ipad. It's overlaying onto the posts and if zoom to read (as I often do), the ad doesn't scale down and takes up even more space.

Jim from Cork

Same here on the Ipad.

Edit: of course now that I have posted here the ad bar is gone for 30 days!

kaltz

Same here. Been happening for a week or so. image.jpg

Dav

Thanks for posting the images folks, they're a big help. We've got someone taking a look at it now.

Grudle

Any timeframe for a fix on this? Having same thing happen to me on ipad

Dav

It's being worked on as we speak, so hopefully today or tomorrow should sort it out.

frash

See attached.

Loads eventually.

Chrome Version 38.0.2125.24.

Dav

Hey Frash, it a consistent problem or does it go away if you do a hard refresh (CTRL+F5) of the page?

The Hill Billy

I had the same issue a couple of hours ago. F5 sorted it. No probs since.

Dav

Yea, I get that myself on occasion, which is why I wanted to make sure it's not a problem after the refresh.

frash

No - still the same after a hard refresh

Even restarting the browser it's the same.

Menu doesn't load until I click on the down arrow - it used to just load when I'd hoover over 'My Forums'.
No issue with the the hoovering over my user name - that menu loads fine.

Dav

I've had some of our tech team looking into this - are you by chance using a beta build of Chrome? They've replicated the issue using version 38.0.2125.24 beta (64-bit).

Yeap. Same version (see OP).

Having problem similar to this on iphone 5, started yesterday. The front page is unreadable due to banner ad on side

Apart from the banner ad, the full site on mobile is not rendering correctly. No links to threads/thread titles and the Thanks tab is sitting in front of the Latest Posts tab.

Here's a screenshot of the view on my iPhone 5. The same also in portrait orientation on my ipad

TCP/IP

Same problem for me when viewing on iPad front page unreadable.

Dav

We're looking into it folks, I reckon that viewing the desktop site on so small a screen is definitely a factor though, but the tech team are looking into it to give me a definitive answer on what's happening.

It's never been an issue up until yesterday. I can't stand the touch site. The full site has worked perfect on iphone 5 until now.

Hey guys, the logged in view for the followed forums won't load properly. I've tried it on an iPhone 4s and iPad mini both running iOS 7.1.2 and using safari. Tried restarting the browser and deleting history, nothing works.

Kaizersoze81

Yeah I'm having the same issue on iphone 5. Every page except the front page works fine. It's to do with the huge banner ad on the right hand side throwing everything out of shape I think.

TCP/IP

Any update on this. Surely not a hard fix. Can we not change the location of the announcements box as it is taking up a huge amount of space.

Same here

Boards.ie: Andres

Thanks for the heads up guys, we've pushed a fix for this.
Please let us know if you see it happening again.

Thanks

baby and crumble

Well it's still happening for me but sure I'll give you more time.

hullaballoo

Yep, same here:

Kaizersoze81

Same here, no change. It's only on the front page this is happening btw. Every other page within the site is fine.

Kaizersoze81

That's not how it was up until 2 days ago. Before you could see the forum name->thread title . Now it's just showing thread title, which is pretty useless without knowing which forum it's in.

Yup, forum name column is not visible for me for the last 15 minutes or so

It's fine logged out, it's when you're logged in that there's an issue.

Zulu

Same here

mirrorwall14

Please put back the forum. Threads make no sense without it e.g. "Best restaurants", "issue resolved", without the forum title these could be anything

copacetic

This has been driving me absolutely bonkers for last few days! Glad to hear it wasn't a design change, but would be great to get it fixed..

Call me Al

When I look at Latest Posts, My Forums, and My Threads the forum the posts are filed under isn't showing anymore. Instead all I get is the thread title and original poster username.

Is this a permanent new thing?

TCP/IP

Please fix this guys get rid of the huge announcements section that is taking up so much room. Just been used for ads.

dudara

Came here to report same. Is this a new feature?

franman

Driving me mad for the last few days! Is it just on apple devices or is it the same on android?

sentient_6

I'm not seeing this. Using chrome.

Ruu

Same with Chrome using Android.

dudara

It's happening on Safari on my iPhone and iPad, but not happening using Safari on my MacBook.

Tokyo

Not an issue here on the following browsers:

Firefox Nightly 35.0a1
Opera 23.0
Google Chrome 37.0.2062.94
Safari 7.0.6

Calhoun

Looks like they got the snip to make way for the add in the margin.

They're not showing on mine either , using firefox


edit: it's working now...

Tokyo

Have you tried stretching the browser window horizontally? The table that contains Latest Posts, My Forums, and My Threads clips off the leftmost column when the window goes below a minimum width, and that my be affected by the ads in the RHS...
