First topic message reminder :

NEW UPDATE : Mobile forums, Footer edit, and more inside!

Hello, In order to continuously improve our services and to bring you the best in the world of forums, we offer you today a new update that will add three brand new features. Without making you wait longer, here are the contents of this update: 1. Modifying the footer of your forums : In exchange of credits, you will know be able to delete the footer. Extra feature, you can also add your own links for free! 2. More options in the moderation panel : You will now be able to change several topics at a time to 'sticky', 'announcement' or 'normal' in a few clicks! 3. Your forum on your Mobile phone : Now, your forums are fully optimized for browsing via mobile devices and smartphones. The principle is very simple, the forum will automatically detect the visitors who access it from a mobile device or smartphone, and it automatically displays a version optimized for this type of navigation. Of course, the visitor who does not wish to use the mobile version will be available to him the possibility to return to normal view forum. This feature is still in beta, you will only be able to browse the forum as a guest. No posting yet. Finally, A big THANK YOU to the entire Forumotion community for all those brilliant ideas! See you soon! Best, Forumotion Team

waw, great changes ! ,
but it seems to mobile phone version is still not running well, I've tested it with a 'blackberry curve', and I also have tested it with 'Sony Ericsson Aino U10i' and 'Xperia'. but the problem still there are some widgets that appear, even to Aino is not functioning at all.

and, if the template seems to have been tightened to protect copyrights 1 packet, yeah that's okay

How do we get back to the mobile version if we've already clicked to view the classic version?

[huskyadmin]

Ugh. I really need a delete or edit button. Or at least to try to read tiny print when I look at my phone :p

You've got a link in the footer.

It's still isn't 100% compatible with all phones. We're working on that.

I use a Droid X and I do most of my administration through the sites with it. However now I can not since the mobile view is always present. There is no way to NOT view it as a mobile site. Is there any way to turn this "beta" off?

Also all the photobucket links of picture to thousands of cars on our car site now are all displaying as bad links after this patch.

[huskyadmin]

I like the colors and that it's easy to read, but seeing as how so many of our users browse exclusively from phones now a days, I would like to see more of what is already on the forum.

-There are no widgets available. I love the recent posts/topics sidebar and I would hate to not have that all the time.
-I would like to be able to see the sub-forums on the main page.
-In the future, it would be nice to have more ability to customize the mobile view. I feel like all personality is sucked out of the forum in mobile view, so although it may be convenient for mobile viewing, I would still view in classic mode on my smart phone (if I were viewing all the time from my phone).

But again, I love the idea. I like the colors and the simplicity. I think it's a great first start but it definitely FEELS like a beta version, so I'm very interested to see how it progresses.

I would still like to see a toggle view link near the top of the page instead of the bottom as well. Perhaps a button that never leaves the view?

I won't uses thiS until it finish coded an tested for full release .

Thank you for making it so that we don't get logged out.
However, having it appear as a normal view first then showing up the option "do you want to use mobile view?" Should be a better idea.

On nokia symbian smartfones it's don't wokr. I try on nokia 5800 using opera and software browser.

[Irian]

it don't go with my phone...

[RisingForce]

I know this is the beta version and so far looks great. Is it however normal that in beta mode you can only VIEW the forum?
I am the moderator and do not see the New Topic, Reply, Quote etc to make posts or start threads.

Sorry if this has already been discussed and thanks in advance for any help.

I was a bit miffed that mobile went beta without warning as I have flu and was unable to answer any queries for over a day, our FB group was un-indated with people who couldn't log in - had we been given warning I could have been prepared with how they needed to go back to the usual forum look.
Looking forward to full version as it does look better to use - but hopefully we get told its going to happen?! All it does is cause 'panic' and I hate it cos it makes the forum look stupid!

I haven't edited my footer, or paid to remove it - but the links have gone!

[mrs dj]

I still can't get it to work with my iphone and forum but yet I can with other peoples forums

[ToTheFuture]

Will images be displayed in messages? How about RPG stuff?

[D]

Just want to say a Big Thank you for adding this,this is going to be awesome!!!!!!

[D]

I simply went to my browser on my cell and logged into group and posted,letting my members know that it's now available on MOBILE,there gonna be THRILLED!!!

You just use the quicky reply box to post and yes images will be posted.

I take it,it costs money to edit footer? I have never used the credits thing,really don't know much about it.

My forum is the same I haven't edited the footer or paid to remove it but the links have gone ???

[D]

I just found the "foot links Configuration" under ADMIN Panel Modules but nothing happens when I try to modify and ad my own links. Do you have to buy credits,is this why?

Weird that sisterval's links are gone.

I don't understand your post at all - firstly the forums have always been available on mobile, in fact mine shows and works perfectly in classic mode exactly how it is online. This update is regarding the new Beta mobile version, so I'm not sure how you logged on as it does not allow log in or posting? There is no quick reply box.

Currently images even as simple as smilies do not show and have to be clicked - this is not acceptable to me - how will members ever know what is a smilie and what is an inserted image - they will get fed up in a very short period of time.

lisa1302,

Like I said. I saw the beta mobile version update in my control panel so I went to my forum on my cell and logged in and posted. Just like I'm using quick reply box here to post,thats what I used at my forum to post and I clicked on one of my smilies and it did post. Also I don't see anywhere on my forum where it says classic or mobile,so I'm not understanding that part that I have read in these posts. All I can tell you is I DID login and post from my blackberry.(my forum not here in support,I'm on my computer right now)

[LH Justin]

Is there any way to turn off mobile? All I get on my forum is a link that says "Classic", and when you click it it takes you to the register page. Most likely because I have my forum hidden and new members disabled, but this mobile version completely ignores the fact that I have a homepage set.

[Guest]

Awesome updates. I have to cheer forumotion by work every day for listen to the user's suggestions, and add it in forumotion. Great work forumotion!

How do you know you are on the beta version though, if you can't see a button to go back to Classic version then maybe you haven't even been on the beta version - its nothing like your normal forum, and Typlo has said you cant log in or post on beta.
