Can you check which version of Awful (in the Settings tab) and iOS (Settings app, General, About) you're using for me? I haven't seen that happen before.

Are there, perchance, any ignored users' posts on that first page you're trying to load?

Using Awful 1.10.

I've tried several different threads...if I use the "first" button or if I scroll to page 1, the app crashes.

I doubt there is an ignored user on the first page of every thread...but I'll dig deeper if I need to.

I tried logging out and logging back in...same problem.

I'll try updating to iOS 6.1 and restarting...maybe that's all my phone needs. I'll report back.


EDIT:

Updated to iOS 6.1...same problem.

On shorter threads (like this one) I can jump to page 2, then press the back arrow to go to page 1, but I cannot go to page 1 directly.

On longer threads (like the jail breaking thread), I can't even do that. If I try to jump back, the app crashes.

Can you grab this System Console app, get Awful to crash, then open System Console and copy the most recent messages from Awful? Then if you could email them to me at pokeyman@nolanw.ca or send me a PM that would be awesome. If this is more work than you're willing to undertake that's perfectly fine.

I have a bookmarked thread where there are a couple new posts. I can see the thread was killed by someone on my ignore list. When I tap on the thread the app crashes.

Love the update so far!

Just a little feedback - I updated the app using my phone on WiFi and could not get the app to start afterwards. It would show the title bar region at top, the main section empty, and the toolbar at the bottom (without icons), then crash back to the home screen. I tried resetting my phone but got the same result. Turns out deleting and reinstalling the app fixed this. Thought I'd post in case anyone else runs into this.

I'm running iOS 6.01 on an iPhone 3GS.

Yeah I was tearing my hair out (figuratively, I have a buzzed head) trying to figure out the white line on that non-retina icon, then noticed the app exporting template I was using had their own "shine" layer outside of my art object that it felt was necessary.

I have a bookmarked thread here in which I appear to have an infinite number of unread posts:


I clicked it, and it just took me to the OP. It may be a forums issue rather than an app issue, since I logged in on the computer and it's marking everything after the first page as unread now, but I saw it on the app first so I figured I'd let you know. Also, if the forum had just marked the whole thread as unread, it seems like the app just wouldn't have displayed anything there?

I believe that that's how the app handles a bookmarked thread that is completely unread. It's not a perfect solution, but it's done that way since the unread badge is used to show bookmark colors.

It means that you've given the thread the red bookmark color on the forums.

The colors don't totally match up between the forums and the app since the new stylesheet was added though. Blue was changed to orange on the forums, but is still blue in the app.

It should never change from blue in the app, either. Orange bookmarks were a bad decision.

All if my general bookmarks were blue and most-read threads were red, but now the lack of contrast means I'm likely to miss when a red thread is updated :(

Same here. My solution is to change all the orange (formerly blue) "general bookmarks" to yellow. The contrast is great enough for them to stand out.

If you want bookmark colors to stand out better, there is a Stylish stylesheet you should check.

Are mods avatars not visible for anyone else? Here's Ozma for example and I know for a fact (and her profile) she has one.

Also the app crashed once when I tried to post this. Probably due to the two images.

Good catch. Other mods and admins' avatars seem to be showing up fine. I think it's because Ozma's avatar has a link around it. I didn't even realize you could do this. Is it a mod/admin only thing?

Nope, the star and the avatar both should show up.

The user-title is one big field of html. The purchase page let's you generate it but admins (and I'd guess mods too) can directly edit the html. T. Finn currently has an avatar linking to youtube.

Thanks, I have no idea if it's only a mod/admin thing. It doesn't show Shine's either. Not sure if he also has a link around it. Can't check at the moment.

And since it's just a hunk of html, we have to guess which image is the avatar. As usual, there are a few corner cases that ruin it for everyone.

Any chance of adding bookmark thread to the forum view drop down menu?

Sometimes I browse the forums when I have a spare minute and think "that might be interesting" but I have to load the thread, bookmark it, refresh my bookmarks and then mark it as unread. Just seems like there could be an easier way. There might be a reason for it but I thought I'd just throw my nitpick out there. :shrug:

Is the awful code intended to be one of those "download and hit build and it just works" or does it require massaging?

Because I attempted just that with the latest xcode, and I get a pile of errors about retain cycles.

The plan was to poke at the code out of boredom, but objective C is pretty alien to me.

The same goes for me. It seems like it's happening every 3rd thread or so. It starts loading then crashes to desktop.
