I've noticed that if you try to upload a picture from you're phone library that's been cropped with editor, the upload fails. This isn't a problem with unchanged images.

From the looks of things, there's a bug where the app reacts to Cloudflare being a poo poo by popping up a "You need Archives to view this content" error message. Should probably be something more accurate/helpful.

Pretty sure this is a known bug but, uh, it can be a bit more dangerous when it happens to moderators. I accidentally a guy's post today.Fedule posted:Explanation of the post above: I meant to quote it. Hit edit instead (#modproblems). No problem; realised instantly, backed out and hit quote instead. Wrote post. I think it's related to how Awful will save your post if you cancel in the middle of writing it combined with the fact that, as far as the forums are concerned, replying and editing are the same form. So I went to edit a post, which of course loads up a post form that will submit an edit. I realise my error, back out, and hit Quote instead. Awful helpfully loads up the post I was just making. Which was an edit, which now has a quote of the original post in it. I think that's what happened.

Stare-Out posted:Here's a request unless I've missed it somewhere; on the pop-up dialog you get when you press down on a thread (with "Last Page" "Mark Unread" etc.) could you add "Last Post"? I know there's a last post option when you tap the page counter within a thread (which doesn't work, by the way) but it would be handy to get to the last post of a thread from favorites and stuff without having to go to the last page and then scroll down to the last post. There's still room on the pop-up dialog so I figured it could go there pretty nicely. Thanks! That makes sense, I'll add it to the list. I forget if the "Last Post" from the page picker is meant to go to the actual last post and just fails, or if it was relabeled but never actually implemented. Probably makes sense to align the text with the effect. 101 posted:This might just be me but it'd be nice to have pull for next page and pull to refresh as different toggles Makes sense to me.

I've got one or two laying around actually, just putting off the actual work. The ones I have are a year+ old, though, so feel free to shoot 'em over. Maybe plop it down on pastebin and link it here?

The throbber is most dope, however the archives error is kind of annoying, seems to be quite regular now but I guess cloud flare gonna cloud flare. One thing that has happened to me a few times is the edit page has flushed (I hit Preview, then Post), I then get what I assume was a cloud flare error. So the post doesn't go through, but I also lose the entire post that was in the 'buffer' or whatever, so I've been copying to clipboard just in case.

Subjunctive posted:If I bring up the settings menu while in landscape on a 6S+, it's malformed and I can't dismiss it until I rotate to portrait. I'm having trouble reproducing this in the simulator because (I think) the split view is so completely hosed I can't even get far enough in. Probably time to reexamine how Awful abuses UISplitViewController. Maluco Marinero posted:The throbber is most dope, however the archives error is kind of annoying, seems to be quite regular now but I guess cloud flare gonna cloud flare. Sorry about that. I wonder why the Cloudflare error isn't getting handled by the "did we get a 200 response from the server" step of processing a response. Would be nice to snag the headers of the response and test it out. Unfortunately I never seem to be affected. I'll make a note and take a look if it happens! Flavor Truck posted:Since when does the app run ads? I was just lying in bed, quietly browsing threads when an ad for some lovely Purge sequel started blasting at full volume.

I'm just curious, do you get metrics on what font sizes are the most popular and on what devices? I'm on an iPhone 6 with my iOS display settings set to the second-smallest font size and 70% scale text in the Awful settings. Text looks great to me but emoji are really, really tiny with those settings. I'm wondering if it's worth it (or even possible?) to bump up their size a little bit (or standardize it regardless of scale text settings?) or if I'm just a weirdo who uses unusually small font. Hoping this sets the record for the most trivial and low priority feature/fix request of all time for the app btw but if it doesn't I wouldn't be surprised

I've gotten that in every tag I've tried in every forum where I've tried it. I feel like it used to work but it's been a while since it has and unfortunately I don't remember how long ago/what version of the app it was. The filter by tag feature may well not exist, though, unless this is some weird device-specific poo poo that only you and I are running into. If you're REALLY really quick though (like literally within one second) and you see the thread you want you can click on it.

Whenever I share an image to GroupMe, it successfully posts but I then have to force close the Awful app. I can't swipe the image back down nor can I tap "done" iPhone 6+ E: okay just tried it again and the text I sent with it posted but no image. And the Awful app didn't freeze; I could swipe it back down. Oh well. Guess I'll stick with copy image url. Jedi Knight Luigi fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Jun 30, 2016 |

Hey pokeyman, when you say "maybe possibly jump to posts better" do you mean there's a condition I missed where it won't? If so let me know and I'll go investigate it.

Hey so here's a bit of a request, I remember way back when that Awful would somehow default to opening to the favorites page when you started the app. I don't know if it's an iOS thing but now it seems to open to the forums list exclusively. Can anything be done about that?
