Just updated to the latest Market version, and noticed a bug from the earlier beta (I forgot to report it :sweatdrop: ) is still around. On the Bookmarks page, when you mark a thread unread, it throws an error and tells you to check your network connectivity. If you refresh the Bookmarks page, that thread is unread.

Instead of making it a percentage of the screen size, could you make it like an inch or two and expand that based on whatever the vertical resolution is?

I liked the big thread tag images because having those small images on an already small display made them hard to read. A user shouldn't be expected to know what the tags look like from the desktop view.

Can you change whatever network you're connecting to? Like if you're on wifi, get off wifi. If you're on 3G/4G, get on wifi.

Totally TWISTED posted:

The SAclopedia doesn't work in the app, maybe this is already known? Just found out today after trying to follow a link in the quotes thread.

Unrelated: when longpressing a link in a post (like CNN.com/newsstory) it gives you the option to share the URL but it then just shares the thread URL.

Edit:

The second issue was before this last update. Not sure about the first one. Also I should really reiterate my thanks for the dev team :glomp:

Things the app does not (yet):
- Allow you to create threads
- Show user profiles
- Leper's colony / see probation reasons
- Display polls
- SAclopedia
- Search
and lots more
Also, you don't have to longpress links.

I don't actually know the workings of the goldmine(s). Are threads there closed? Can you still post in them?

Any suggestion how to indicate it, other than the hierarchy-up action going to the goldmine as it currently is?
I was going to say goldmine.css, but I guess there isn't one like there is for the gas chamber. Instead, there's .forum_21 stuff in the forums.css. Maybe you could check for that?

If I've got a bug I'd like to report, is it best to report it in this thread, the project.log thread, or in GitHub, or in the Google+ group?

HOWEVER, I'm on Gingerbread, I haven't seen anyone else in this thread complain about this bug, it's really minor, and I need to get off of this shamephone.

There are two quite distinct side swipes: one that starts on or beyond the left edge of the screen which brings up the hamburger menu, and the other which starts from anywhere not super-close to the left edge and goes back to wherever you loaded the tread from.
There's also the back button on your device; if you opened a thread from the bookmarks menu and then press the back button, it will take you back to the bookmarks menu.

just in case anyone is worried that this trivial poo poo is all that we're working on, this was done because it was pretty easy to do (once I figured out what to do and where to do it) and it was a good way to test to see if we could deploy user-visible changes without destroying the forums again. the squares are just some poo poo in the CSS and can change as easily as all the other lovely balls and whatever you all have next to your names, so don't get too attached to/distressed by them

Or, you could call it the further militarization of St. Louis.

Just a quick suggestion :

I think that you're wasting space with the forums index on that menu you get when doing the left right swipe. Navigating back is already a breeze with a few quick swipes.

Maybe you could instead put the bookmarks in that space and tone down the space the av uses since its mine and i really know how it looks.

Just my 5c ;)
