Happy to report NO issues with spoilers since I switched off the alternate theme. So glad you offered that suggestion!

Yeah, since I moved back to the default theme everything has been working for me as well. I’m convinced the alt-theme was the culprit (although I *really* liked the alt-theme).

Grace Baiting posted:+1 to this, and also I haven't been able to longpress-to-open gifs any more like other images, when I have the tap-to-play-gifs setting on. Unless it was fixed by one of the two App Store updates in the past week or so! This one's on the list! Warbird posted:So what’s the story with the imgur uploads? I saw the improvements mentioned in the latest patch but I don’t actually see where/how to do them in the app. When you're typing up a post, tap the caret to see the lil menu (usually for cut/copy/paste but Awful adds more items) then choose the "[img]" menu item. If you do "From Camera" or "From Library" the image will be uploaded to Imgur before submitting your post. Regy Rusty posted:Hardly necessary any more but I finally got to test it out and swapping back and forth between the normal and alternate themes had the spoilers working in normal and not in alternate every time. It's good to know anyway, I want to get a sense of how many people continue to be affected once the alternate theme is taken out of the mix.

Awesome! I'll get a new version out here soon so y'all can keep using the alternate theme with functioning spoilers etc.

I just installed the app and have a couple of issues already 1. Is it impossible to zoom in or enlarge a picture in a post? Sometimes people post very large images with small fonts. I saw an example of this almost right away and could not zoom in. 2. Is there any support for embedded mp4's from imgur in posts? I installed the app specifically because these common mp4 videos wouldn't embed on iOS Chrome like they do on Windows Chrome, but it was a vain attempt, the Awful app still doesn't embed them (although they do show up as links, which is a step up from iOS Chrome which shows them as non-interactive still images)

With imgur uploads still being iffy, I use the imgur app, and then copy the direct link to my posts. Could there be a [timg] tags option when you enter the [img] submenu to avoid having to go back and type the ‘t’ for every one?

You're basically stuck with your first upload and it's completely immutable, right? I mean that totally fits the old SA pattern of "Make a mistake because you're not paying attention and pay for it idiot!" but I feel like we can be better than that.

Latest Awful, iOS iOS 12, iPhone 8. No matter who I try to add to ignore, it tells me Daikatana Risu is a mod and can’t be ignored. That’s an disturbing implication about the population of the forum (My assumption is that I have had them on ignore for a while but they’re an IK now or some such and any further additions to the list is causing an error because mods and admins are protected )

I dunno if it helps but there's a special control panel for ignored users that most people probably don't ever find. Log in on desktop and it's an option in your user control panel. Next to forum options and all those links. Once you're there, it shows you a big list of all the users you've ever ignored with the ability to modify entries. Find Daikatana Risu's entry and clear out that textbox and save it. Hopefully this fixes your profile. This is also how you un-ignore someone if you forget why you hate them and find yourself clicking into their posts all the time to catch the flow of conversations.

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3553037&perpage=40&pagenumber=589#post492619354 I have achieved a heckin sorcery: If you img tag an MP4, it will only play in the app. If you url tag an MP4, it will only play on Desktop. So. I have tagged one as img, and the other as url. Guess what? Video appears ONLY ONCE, despite. So browse on mobile! Browse on the web! See the difference. Can this process be made easier?

Actually, on desktop Safari, I can see both. What happens is the img tagged one (the second one, right?) gets served up by imgur as a gifv, which safari (and awful, and probably chrome? I assume this is a webkit thing) understands. That happily loops forever, silently. The first video, which is url tagged, embeds as an mp4, and won't do that. (although I'm pretty sure I set a flag somewhere to prevent autoplaying videos. If I click through to show controls, I can play the video, sound and all.) I only checked with firefox, but the img-tagged gifv version didn't work in firefox, it just displays a broken file placeholder. Out of curiosity, how did you upload your video? When I tried I went through the pain in the rear end imgur.com/upload page (and used its share link, which is how I got the img-tagged gifv in the first place). I'd be curious to know if there's a proper solution to this, though. To be honest, I just used the img tags because I couldn't remember which ones worked for embedding a video like that. I kinda feel like once upon a time imgur just served a suitable format to whatever browser and it just worked, but it's not like SA's bbcode listing has ever been changed, so I'm not sure what's the "correct" way to post gifv/webm/whatevers. Actually, I can see that your video is 15s long, but awful (and desktop safari) are only showing like, 3 frames looping forever. Did you shorten it, or is something just horribly hosed up?

That happily loops forever, silently. Full rundown: I uploaded the video from the Imgur app, then got the link for the mp4 from copying the link within the app and then pasting it into Awful and putting it in as an IMG. When I came to my browser (Windows 10, Chrome), the video was not there, so I edited it and took out the IMGs. Suddenly, the video appeared and played automatically on desktop, but I only see the hyperlink in mobile. That's when I decided to put both in. Regarding that 3-second loop: If you refresh, sometimes it will cache the whole thing. It's a cache error.

Love the app! A small issue though: It seems like previously stickied threads remains on the top (in Fyad at least) for some time. Not a big deal but can be confusing.

I never used alternate themes because I am pure of blood and mind, but I haven’t had spoiler issues in quite a while, other than the fact that I sometimes need to tap a few times. Maybe I am a very bad tapper, but maybe there’s a target location/size/pattern issue? I’m can’t explain any of it.
