Max,

I was just thinking about this at the shootout last week. I was trying to look at the forums on the phone browser and wishing there was a stripped version for cellies!

Nice addition. I dont think any other forum has this feature! I may be wrong though.

Way to stay ahead Max!

T BYRD · 10-11-2007, 05:40 PM

I dont see the post hucker though?

T BYRD · 10-11-2007, 05:41 PM

Max,

Found it under mobile navigation.

My links are not working off of the new posts link. Is there an issue or is it just me?

TonyThomasian · 10-12-2007, 02:12 AM

Max, wanna trade phones?! haha

madmax · 10-12-2007, 02:54 AM

Trent, give it a go again bro, let me know if that fixed it. Thanks for the comments guys!!! Hope you enjoy it!

And yes, we're the only forum that does this... But as usual, give it a few days.

T BYRD · 10-12-2007, 09:15 AM

Max,

From mobile navigation I go to todays posts, then go to any post and it comes up with " the page cannot be found... if reached by a a link, contact the website administrator and inform them that the link is incorrectly formated..."

Anyone else have trouble here?

dubd · 10-12-2007, 01:42 PM

I get a mobile version of the forums when i go to a forum link from the homepage on my iphone. The problem is that the text is to small to be readable. I feel the mobile version of the site only show up if a user goes to mobile.flyinggiants.com, not if they start from www. You should also consider having a shorter alias like m.flyinggiants.com.

T BYRD · 10-12-2007, 02:04 PM

Dubd do you have any issues from the todays posts? If I click on a link from there it says not found. You???

Perhaps the mobile version of the site only shows up if a user goes to mobile.flyinggiants.com, not if they start from www. You should also consider having a shorter alias like m.flyinggiants.com... ala google's mobile service (m.google.com).

Dub the more I'm using this on iPhone, the more I'm learning about the experience. Text is a bit small. You need to zoom fo sho.

Problem with the moble fg domain is the links point to www thus breaking thw interface. Thats why im using browser detect. Heavy iphone user here. Well make it better.

madmax · 10-12-2007, 03:03 PM

just bumped a few of the fonts up. Looking any better?

T BYRD · 10-12-2007, 03:57 PM

The fonts are much larger. Looks good. Post still no workie from "Today's Posts" under mobile nav. Do the posts work from your phone under today's posts?

madmax · 10-13-2007, 01:00 AM

Trent... Found the bug. Try it out again..

The iphone browser is a little funky and seems to change the size of text randomly. Going to keep working to improve this.

Does everyone agree the mobile version is muuuuch faster?

dubd · 10-13-2007, 02:39 AM

Text size is much improved! Thanks! You're right, the font size does seems to be random. Perhaps it is a CSS issue? The thing that sucks about going to the FG site from my iphone is that i can not see pictures in the mobile version of the thread.

I actually liked the site better from my iphone before the switch to the mobile domain.

madmax · 10-13-2007, 02:47 AM

dub, I've been messing around heavily with the mobile version the past few days... remember, it's not the iphone version, but a mobile version. Somehow, I'm trying to make this seamless for both... But of course I use the iphone extensively during the daytime for keeping up on things.

Photos should work as before..... uploading one now. tell me if it shows good on your end.

Keep the ideas/comments coming folks!
