Fear not, the sidebar will be going away in landscape soon. I think in 2 versions, or so.

If you guts are doing this (and it looks awesome) is there a way to include avatar text as well as avatars? A lot of jokes are missing their punch lines.

App issue: when I try to bookmark a thread after opening it from another thread (by following a link), the app immediately crashes; I don't think this happens if I just open a thread normally and try.

e: confirming that this does not happen without a link first being followed. If it's relevant, it was following a D&D link into another D&D topic (monthly megathreads).

Newest version of the app as in the App Store as of 02/12/12.

Just had exactly the same thing happen.

Just started using Awful on an iPad 4; I like it so far. I was wondering though if there was an option in the app to filter and display the posts of a single user from within a topic, for instance if I happen upon a 300 page topic that seems interesting but insurmountably large and I want to cut through the faff by only reading what the topic creator has posted and replied to. I know the feature is in the Android version of Awful as "Find Posts From This User," but I'm guessing they're unrelated to the iOS version, so that's why I wanted to ask if it's available here.

This would be really good for catching up on LPs too.

Well now that I've gotten to a computer I can see the problem but considering an issue with the app was an inability to get to the end of a thread perhaps you would understand why folks hadn't seen a post saying the issue was known.

Looks like everything's hosed with the new Forums design. We're on it, hold tight.

On a more constructive note, it's early days but do the changes open the door for any improvements to the app?

ACID POLICE posted:

I have one more dumb question. When you split an unlimited line off a family plan, is it essentially like signing a new 2 year contract? Because I have a full upgrade on my line and I could use it to upgrade someone else's phone if I could get a 2 year contact price on my phone. But I haven't feeling it won't work that smoothly and I might still end up needing to pay retail for a new phone if I want one.

Wait for the iPhone 6.

The only thing I dislike is that there's no green box around posts where people have quoted you, but other than that, everything looks and feels prettier and snappier than it did before.

Oh yeah, I'll miss that. I liked the little feeling of self-satisfaction that gave you.

Hey, still loving the app Pokeman. Thanks!

Quick feature request: if I copy a link from the YouTube app, it uses the YouTu.be shortened URL. It's relatively easy to chop off the short URL and post video=youtube tags around it, but could this functionality be included in a future version?

This might be fixed in the next version (also the last iOS 7 version). It is fixed in the upcoming iOS 8 version.

That's interesting, I wasn't going to say anything until this post but a weird thing has been happening for me since upgrading to 8.

Awful works as great as it usually does on the mobile network, but on my wifi actions like refreshing my bookmarks or loading a thread take a long time or time out entirely. And then it will be fine for a brief time before happening again.

It may be that iOS 8 doesn't like something I have set on my wifi (I've tried on both my 2.4 and 5GHz APs) but other other apps are fine. I have completely removed and re-downloaded the app, I even tried a full iphone restore, thinking that the update may have screwed something up. No idea. I'll test on someone else's wifi when I can.

That's happening on my home wifi as well, I thought it was just local congestion.

And now if I tap img it should poo poo itself.

Yup. Tapping img brings up an entirely different menu with tags for url, img, format and video. Tapping img a second time does nothing. If I kill the app from multitasker and reload it, it will work fine until another image is posted. The cycle will then repeat.

Yeah, I have the same issue. Deleted/re downloaded today and still have the issue. The broken menu also refuses to format text.

I was all scared about what new thing broke given all the new posts, but it's just y'all helping y'all.

I believe the unaddressed bugs are on my list for the next version. Hold tight y'all.

And yep search is a big feature I want in the app. I'm in the mindset where I feel like the app is built on such a lovely foundation that I want to fix that before adding major new features. I'm not sure that's reasonable or valid, but it's my current feeling. But I appreciate the reminder, it's always welcome.

You've got the edit menu still being broken after uploading an image, right?
