Bummer. I much prefer Tapatalk, 

Me, too...


Ironically this new format is much worse on my Android. On some threads I now have to zoom out (making text unreadable) to see the full text on each line or manually scroll the screen back and forth in each line to see it all.

I haven't figured out the pattern yet.

Yeah, looking at WG on my Android Galaxy S4 is a little inconvenient, now.  Too much zooming and scrolling to try and read the posts.

All those who are having problems with the display, please send me a screenshot to luap@wildguzzi.com.  A screenshot with a dot or arrow about what you are referring to including type of phone / browser they are using will help a lot. People on laptops / PCs should see the forum as they normally would.

I just turned on the "Desktop Site" setting on my Moto Z Android and it's mostly fine now.

Thanks Kev.

I just checked the "Desktop Site" box in the menu, and now the threads appear with no scrolling right required.

The template has been adjusted again. So for those of you experiencing problems, have another look and let me know how it works out.

Looks pretty good to me.....unless someone posts a large photo or long web link. Then I have to scroll left and right. I tried the "Desktop Site" option and it made it too small to be useful.....on my phone anyway. Tablet works pretty good.

The post format will no longer fit in my phone, regardless of which way I turn it, IPhone 6, and when I attempted to swipe to read or reply it creates issues, which right now are aggravating to deal with. I'm sure I'll adjust and realize any changes to the forum was in our best interest. Not complaining just offering my situation and open to assisted if applicable, I'll adjust and adapt.

Whatever just happened, please undo it. I can't even zoom it anymore. It's virtually impossible to read now.

Phone is OK. It's my iPad. Actually, it's just Chrome on my iPad. I can zoom with Safari, but not Chrome. 

Weird.  :shocked:


Edit: I tried desktop and mobile mode. No zoom on either with Chrome.

This is what I get and trying to make it smaller to fit the screen is impossible for me to accomplish. Sometimes it's not this large.
