RE: images. I see the attachment option but is there an option for non - plat users or stuff that won't upload as an attachment (eg images from a retina screen shot that flummox the forums' attachment uploader's dimension detection)

Just hit the down arrow in the top right and pick 'Image Tag' or 'Thumbnail Tag' and paste your url in between the BBcode tags. If you have an image URL on the clipboard and paste it, sometimes it even tags it for you. I don't know how it works on iPhone but on Android you paste with a long press.

The imgur app will conveniently give you clipboard URLs with BBcode already on them at your option, so I just use that to add an image from my tablet or phone.

Hi, I have stupid questions because I am usually an iPhone user.

How do I post a picture from the android app?

Can I turn off the post confirmation dialog?

How can I change YOSPOS to amberpos in the app?

Is there a help page or FAQ or something for stupid babbies like me, beyond this thread?

Upload the image to imgur using one of the many imgur apps or the passable mobile website and add an timg tag. It should automatically insert the url from the clipboard.

Can't turn off the confirmation dialog.

How would you like to swap between the POS themes? I'd rather not make it an option in the settings so it's not implemented yet.

There probably should be but :effort:

Maybe on the hardware menu button in thread or forum views when forumid matches 219 (or any other forumid that supports multiple stylesheets)?

The app ctd's often when I launch it from the recent app pop up. I can't remember the official name of the app picker thing.
Anyway, it crashes with no error and launches fine on next try.
This seems to have started with the last update or the one before.
This is on my stock Motorola Xoom running the beta version.

With how long threads can get, is there any particular reason why fast scroll isn't enabled and is blocked from being enabled through xposed module for forcing it on?

Try refreshing the account settings under settings -> account

As for fast scrolling, yeah the webview just flat out doesn't support it. I've looked into a few JavaScript based ones but they were poo poo. Though that was like 3 years ago so I might give it another try.

Yeah, I am getting seemingly random crashes hitting reply on various threads on both my Nexus 5 and 7. It will work in some threads but not in others, I haven't figured out the pattern but I mashed in a bunch of automatic crash reports.
