Is it possible to get a button for period thrown on the formatting bar? I know it's not directly formatting but it's be nice for when typing out links.

I have two questions about this request. How would a period key help you type out links? And does your keyboard not have a period key already?

Odd bug, maybe a one-off but maybe worth looking at.

I was refreshing the lapd thread over in GBS keeping up. Switched away to another thread and I'm assuming I had refreshed to the 40th post with no new page. Came back to the thread and it loaded an empty page with a banner ad and pull to next page. A very fringe case, but I thought I'd mention it.

I will certainly take a look! What version of iOS are you using?

6.1, iphone5. I can't reproduce it by marking a page read and re-opening it. My guess is the pull-up refresh on the very end of the page is what did it, and the timing just happened to be right to make the issue, or the thing just hiccuped.

Did you happen to notice if the "previous posts" button was enabled? If you get the same bug again, can you tap "previous posts" and let me know if it works?

I'm thinking there's an off-by-one bug somewhere in the hide read posts logic, probably (as you suspect) around having 40 posts on the last page.

I didn't see if it was or not. I just moved on to the next page. I'll keep an eye out if I can get it to happen again. At least it's nothing app-breaking, right :unsmith:

You can double-tap space to insert a period, but then you have to backspace once to bring the cursor back to where it needs to be to continue typing a URL. and yeah, there's a separate period key, but its behind the button press that takes you to a numbers/symbols/punctuation menu.

You guys now if you just hold down on the 123 key and sort of glide your finger over to the period it switches right back to the normal keyboard, right? Same goes for any character on that 123 keyboard. Really saves a lot of time with links and makes a period key kind of unnecessary IMO.

It's on the question mark key next to right shift and no modifiers are needed to press it.

Found an odd behaviour with some animated avatars. I've used Harlock's as an example here.

At the end of his (and some others) animation it flashes partly black before starting the animation again.

I've checked on the website and it's fine on there :shrug:

Also, Ozma's and Shine's avatars still don't show.

It took me way too long to capture that flash. The screenshot timing's a bit awkward.

Multiple image upload still crashes the app to the springboard as well. Had to edit the second in.

Web views do some weird poo poo with images. It seems like every fifth image it loads it complains about something. I'll see if I can do anything about it. Anything in the console about memory warnings?

Also, I see Ozma's avatar and Shine's avatar no problem?

Finally, do you have anything in the console for multi-image uploading? I thought I had it working again.

Oh ok, I keep thinking you're building from the repo. Image uploading should be fixed in 1.10.2.

No need to hit the console anymore, but for future reference you can see it by grabbing an app like System Console. Most times a crash will have a corresponding entry in he console that helps me fix things.

What's the procedure for submitting code?

I just finished hacking in a font scale slider, because my eyes are poo poo and sometimes I like bigger text. I assume (hope?) other people might want this.

Caveat being, this is the first iOS coding I've ever really done, and there's no guarantees I did everything properly. For the most part I tried to follow the conventions in the existing code but that doesn't mean I didn't miss something. Plus I guess you might want to make sure I didn't sneak in some password sniffing code that sends everything to my own database.

If you get stuck somewhere, do not hesitate to send me a PM or email pokeyman@nolanw.ca and I will do my best to help!
