Welcome to the upgraded forum!

[QIII]

Works well from my phone using Firefox -- except when the screen is oriented vertically. Then some of the elements overlap. I'm sure that's browser rendering rather than anything to do with the site.

I'm puzzled — the default for me is the same size as the displayed posts.

If you are using Firefox, you can adjust the displayed sizes with Ctrl++ and Ctrl+-. Use Ctrl+0 to reset.

Earlier someone mentioned checking OP and I was clueless - Thanks for shedding some light!

Using Chromium, and I intended to as if there was a preference setting on the Forum, not on my browser

I just tried the forums from my phone. I am surprised how useable it is. Also surprised how I never tried it before.

I think that its usability has improved with the upgrade, which can only be a good thing.

One problem I am finding- I frequently use Quick Links>Find all my posts to keep tabs on threads I've been helping with, to see if there are any new replies. In the old forums, the icon would change if a reply had been added. Now I don't seem to have any visual indicator as to whether a new reply has been added.
Am I just overlooking something?

The said result can be achieved from 'Settings'

I can't figure out how to access my subscribed threads from the mobile version. From the desktop version I can get to them from "quick links" but I don't see quick links on the mobile version. Am I just blind?

Did I miss the answer to my question?

Do you see 'Settings' in the mobile version?

[Ms. Daisy]

I do not. This is the first screen I get after logging in.

This is what I see if i click on the icon with three squares across the center in the top right corner of the screenie above.

I have clicked on all the icons, none take me to subscriptions with or without new posts in them. "Notifications" apparently only reports private messages.

Try going to Quick Links > Subscribed Threads instead.

The title of the thread will be bold and appear first when a new post has been added. The very luminescent orange against a titanium white background ironically diminishes the affect of the bold so it's hard to see. Adjusting the colors helps:Subscriptions.jpg

I tend to do that the same way as I used to - though the name has changed - I used to got to usercp - all threads I'm subscribed to with new replies will be there - settings here is the same thing.
