Feedback: the default layout alternates the colors of posts on mobile: every other message is pale ass link on white background and almost impossible to read on a phone. Plus the login option does not appear unless I rotate the screen. Anyone else have this issue using an Android phone/Chrome browser??

I am not having that issue at all Brutus, I'm posting from my android phone, using a chrome browser. It looks similar to the PC version of the site

Weird and annoying. I should have a new phone in the next week, so I'll compare then and see if i still get the same issue.

I am having this issue as well on my phone. Was trying to find a way to fix it but it seems beyond me atm.  I have made due by highlighting the text of someone's post as if I we're going to copy it. That allows me to read the white words of the white background for alternating posts.

I have an android (Samsung galaxy note 3) and use Chrome as well, but I don't think that's the issue.

Hi there!

From the upcoming newsletter in the making:

"I am not too keen on the layout for the cellphone view of the forum. Like Brutus just mentioned in the Main OOC thread, the results can be a bit skewed, colours not coming out right. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the results either, just wonky overall. Therefore, until I have had Elkarte staff agree to completely disable the mobile view of our forum, making all devices only show the desktop version of it, I recommend you switch to Desktop view when accessing the forum on your cellphones. It might be Elkarte staff or John74 is able to fix the mobile view too, so we'll see how it turns out. For now, just use the desktop view until further notice. You can switch to it in your phone's setting easily enough."

Hope it helps for the time being! :)

Best,

Auctor Lucan

OK cool!

 So here is something interesting that i just noticed because I opened this post with my phone in a different position than before. When I have my phone vertical,  every other post is white on white and no one has signatures or titles.  When I turn my phone horizontal, the issue is fixed and I can see and read everything normally (as well as everyone's signatures and titles)

It's crazy weird but there you go.  Try turning your phone sideways and see if it fixes things for you

Yeah, I have been told by Elkarte staff what to do, but it goes over my ability, so I will have to ask for help from my webmaster, lol.

SSL-PROTECTION SOON

In other news, I have just put us in cue to have the site SSL protected, changing the URL of the site to https://. We will see if all links will be automatically redirected, even if my web provider company swears they will. If all links are broken, I will switch back and make the switch when I have the time to fix all the links everywhere (again).

Best Regards,

Lol Well, I won't hold that against you :)

As a general question, is there a place to post ideas for character growth to kind of flesh out before posting?

Re: Main OOC Thread

Yeah, it's more brainstorming than actual posts. Developing ideas and having some suggestions to make it fit in to the overall world, that sort of thing. One aspect, when Dev is finally on the Theurgy is holodeck programs of interest to pass the time, etc.

Again, just kind of spitballing and wasn't sure were that would be appropriate. Nothing pressing, obviously, with the transition. Just thinking out loud.

Awesome post in Director's Cut, Waffles. :) Thanks for the read. If you want to write with someone in that scene, then DocReno's and EAC's characters ought to be there, right?

SSL-PROTECTION ENABLED

I am updating links all over the place from http:// to https:// so you can all update your own saved links to https://uss-theurgy.com/forum/ and https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Main_Page for the forum and wiki respectively.

Not sure why Chrome still says the site isn't secure, but John74 will be installing an auto-redirect script for all site traffic to https://, so perhaps that will solve the issue.

Thanks, Auctor!

Also, just a head's up on the tech side, I've got a partial secure connection. Firefox is saying that the images may not be secure. Not sure if that helps or confuses.

Thank you, it does help. All links to DeviantArt are http://, so I am ahunting...

With a joint venture between John74 and I, the site may be secure on the morrow. With all the Wiki content, its quite a lot to go through.

Eventually, I will ask everyone to look around for errors in this regard, but atm, it's a work in progress. I will keep you all posted!

SSL-PROTECTION ENGAGED. SITE SECURE.

One does not realise how much pages and links one have accumulated until one does something like this. The entire site, forum and wiki, should all be secure now, marked by that little quality stamp of a green padlock before the url in your browsers.

Now, please keep in mind that if you upload or link an insecure image in a post - preceded by http:// instead of https:// - that page of the site will loose the green padlock. Nevertheless, the site will still be secure if that happens.

Please, look around at your leisure and let me know if you find any pages I missed.

Best Regards,

A SIMPLE MAIN PAGE

Well, since we already had the forum page and the wiki page in separate folders on my domain, I made a quick and easy slider main page for the parent, uss-theurgy.com.

Nothing fancy, and no images you haven't seen before, but just a clean first impression.

Now, after the hours spent on the SSL protection and this page, I am quite fed up with programming for a while, lol.

Best,

Auctor Lucan
