dencorso Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Hmmm. Well... Good try, xper... But, sorry, no cigar, as the saying goes (I can't help but wonder where anyone would still be able to smoke a cigar in real life, nowadays...)...Now member ハイドン has had his username changed to "katakana"... when it really meant "Hydn". So, no, I think conversion just "sanitized" the "impossible" names (i. e.: those contining # < > and things like Japanese characters)...In any case, can you give "katakana" back his username in Japanese characters? In case the database refuses that, then I think the username should be made "Hydn", which is what that meant, anyway. TIA.
Guest Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 How do you change to mobile view? "Change theme" is missing from the bottom left of the forum pages.
tomasz86 Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 Fixed. I get desktop version in IE 11 on Windows Phone 8.1. My user agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows Phone 8.1; ARM; Trident/7.0; Touch; rv:11.0; IEMobile/11.0; NOKIA; Lumia 520) like Gecko
jumper Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) So mobile view is automatic, based on user agent? Thanks. Edited May 5, 2014 by jumper
tomasz86 Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) So mobile view is automatic, based on user agent? Thanks. It seems to be so. I think it would be much better to have it based on screen size / browser window size, or at least to make it possible to manually switch to mobile view when needed. The user agent based method is definitely imperfect now Edited May 6, 2014 by tomasz86
bphlpt Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Quoting a post used to include embedded quotes, and now it doesn't anymore. See http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/171726-msfn-will-be-closed-for-few-hours/?p=1076966. Can the old behavior please be reinstated? Cheers and Regards
Tripredacus Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Previous board setting allowed for a maximum of 1 nested quote. See here for an example: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/155290-windows-8-deeper-impressions/?p=1076667
bphlpt Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 I thought it used to be more than that, but in any case now it appears to be 0 nested quotes. Cheers and Regards
JorgeA Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 I seem to recall an exchange at some point in the same thread that @Tripredacus quoted, where @CharlotteTheHarlot and I went back and forth embedding quotes within quotes to "test" how far one could go doing that. IIRC we went several layers deep and stopped before reaching whatever the limit might have been. But definitely the limit is now 0, as @bphlpt points out. This hampers discussion, as the context of what one's commenting on is lost. It's an issue especially in active threads where there is more than one theme or topic going on concurrently. --JorgeA
