I'm not really sure what even might be the cause of this problem, but I looked through the last couple posts as best I could, and didn't see anyone else reporting this. So, in short, any time I try to load a thread on my iPhone, the app tells me that I'm in a Starbucks?

Tried that, which didn't work. Deleted the app and reinstalled it, and the problem has apparently solved itself.

Had you at least been to a Starbucks wifi thing recently? I wonder if the semi-shared webview stuff got confused somehow.

I was in a Starbucks a day or two before the problem started, but I didn't connect to the wifi there or anything like that. :iiam:

I'll keep an eye on it and see if it breaks us. Which, it will, because widgets.js had to be packaged with the app. I also love the super precise "in the coming days".

Strongly suspect the old widgets.js will keep working for long enough for us to move over smoothly. The new JS will continue to generate the current content for down-rev browsers, so the network API should remain compatible with what our local widgets.js emits. If iOS WebView does sDOM then we'll want the improved version when it's out, though.

I feel like the repro steps involve some permutation of enabling/disabling split view, with or without a thread open, and backgrounding the app

I see the rectangle briefly if I rotate from portrait to landscape while split view is active and I'm looking at a thread or forum list. It looks like you got it to appear all the time? Can you remember what you did?

My Awful app seems convinced that page 29 of the current USPOL thread is the final page of the thread, insofar as pull-for-next-page isn't working and it's only doing pull-to-refresh on page 29. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3774247&perpage=40&pagenumber=29
Note there's like 35 pages right now, which I'm pretty sure means there's a page 30!

This has persisted even after I tried several things:
• opening the thread anew by tapping on it from my bookmarks (after marking as read a post so it would load page 29); still refreshes on a page 29 pull
• returning to page 28 then pulling successfully for page 29; page 29 still pulls to refresh
• and force-quitting Awful and trying from what I figured would be a fresh state; yep pull to refresh page 29.

I think it's been narrowed down to posting a photo you've taken on that device. If you edit the photo, even adjust the borders slightly, you can then upload it.

Just FYI the part to ignore in this post is my uninformed "problematic gifs have a white background?? and static portion of image before that spot goes transparent???" speculation -- I don't know what's causing it but the gifs are still problematic with stuck frames in Dark Mode. Another example is :psyboom: (psyboom) where in Dark Mode the head remains unexploded through the entire animation.

Note that the gifs are animated properly in the Image Viewer sheet! But they are animated stuck-ishly when seen directly in a Dark Mode thread.

It happens whether I'm connected to wifi or 3G, and I've tried restarting my phone. It wouldn't be a problem, but the Starbucks thing is messily interspersed with the first three or four posts on a page, so...? I've tried clicking the Accept & Connect button, or doing anything else with to interact with the Starbucks thing, but none of it actually works. This has been the case for roughly two days.




I ran into this myself a long time ago and investigated it, and I thought I'd fixed it too.

I'm not averse to adding TwitterKit or whatever to the app if it'll give us a better experience. Could just be extra work for too little gain though.

I can't think of what else to ask about. I get the feeling there's a couple different failure cases that come out as "code -1", but that's as far as my hypothesis goes at the moment.

So, I just got an iPhone 4S. I'm a dumb baby and have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to iPhones.

How... do I get an older version of the Awful app? I believe I'm stuck on iOS 7.1.x, so getting the app from the App Store is a no go.

Am I just poo poo outta luck unless I jailbreak?

For what it's worth, old versions of Awful probably don't work because the forum changes around in the meantime and we have our hands full maintaining one version. Sorry :(

It's actually really easy to reproduce. Go into a thread, select some text, leave thread. I don't know much about how text selection works in iOS, but could we just do something simple like deselect the text programatically when leaving the thread?
