So the whole "clicking on links doesn't work" bug. Do we know which version introduced that? Maybe something could just be backed out to fix it?

Thank you for adding flags in FYAD. It seemed like an impossible request for a while but you did it.

This is so annoying. They need to somehow fix this.

In split view I have Awful on the left 2/3 and another app on the right 1/3 in portrait, and I'm on the forums list. If I switch to landscape Awful's window shows nothing but blank space. It looks to me like Awful is switching size classes and Awful is showing its empty detail chunk of master-detail view.

Fixed this. I think it's the same issue that causes weirdness on iPhone 6+ when rotating to landscape; if so, that's fixed too.

I thought it came about around when I added FYAD flags, during which I built a new copy of zepto.js for the first time in ages. But looking at zepto's commit history, the touch module hasn't been, er, touched in a long time. So maybe that's a coincidence. There are many layers of fuckery we do to the webview, I would not be surprised if something got wedged in there.

If it is (and I agree, I haven't noticed it in the current beta), it wasn't my (intentional) doing.

I've noticed that the app seems to not keep very good track of unbookmarked threads. I unmark TVIV threads (sometimes in the app, sometimes on my computer) before a new episode comes out that I can't watch right away, then catch up with the thread and re-mark after I have time to watch it. When I go to re-mark the thread through the lower-right options menu, sometimes the app shows the un-mark button, apparently thinking that I still have it bookmarked from a while back.

+1 on the embedded tweets if possible/not a time sink, as people are posting tons of them now.

Also o seem to always have a copy/paste handle visible in random parts of the screen for some reason in the app now. I have no idea why.

I have tweets sort of working, but sometimes it busts the tables so I need to figure that out. Not sure how much time I'll have this week, and I need to land the gifv inlining too.

Would it be possible to display that there is a poll for a thread, and maybe what the options are? Or does this already work but I somehow did not enable it?

If you "edit" a post then change your mind and decide to reply and make a new one it still only edits the original post.

Does it edit the post if you save, or just prefill the buffer with the previous contents, like it does for other edit-cancels

I don;t know if this is documented, but every time I make an SA Mart thread, the category is flipped. As in, if I post as buying from within the app, it will be selling and vice versa.

Does anyone else have issues tapping on links? Sometimes they open right away, sometimes I have to mash it like an animal.

I've noticed that sometimes tapping on a stubborn link will scroll the content up 1pt on each tap. If I manually scroll up a bit (enough to fully show the quick bar at the top of the scrollview) it usually will push to the webview on the next tap.

Ipad mini 4 9.2.1
(But I think I've seen this on prior app/os versions)

Also is there a formal bug reporting spot or should we just post them here

Boy, that's not what I see at all. What do you have the click-to-play setting at, and what OS version are you on? I assume you're using the App Store version of Awful.

I mean the Load Images setting is either on or off. I even just tried turning it on, loading that post, then turning it back off but it still wants clicks.

The betas are distributed outside the App Store, which is why I was asking.

That isn't an option. That I can find at least. And if it were, :airquote: is working so it can't be just which ones are animated.

In dark mode, I'd like to see the title bar darker than the current teal. Something grey or dark blue/purple would work.

Super strange. Worked randomly for a few minutes, then crashed again in the same way. Seems to crash on both the login and after logging in of I get enough time to let it go through.
