If I haven’t used the Your Posts button, clicking on the name takes me to the user’s profile. The display is different between the Your Posts and the normal browse.

How can I send you screen shots?
My IPhone is the same as Fangle’s. Portrait, landscape makes no difference - I can’t see an arrow next to a username. It’s there on my pc...

Also clicking on the green arrow to left of unread thread only works 1 in 4 times. :cry:

Only if you select Your Posts from the menu, it shows the date and time of the last post, and clicking on that brings you to it.

Would it use up a lot of space to have the thread name appear above each post?

It's odd to be halfway down a thread, walk away for a bit (I'm mean....go do some actual work) then come back and have no idea which thread you were reading earlier.... :smile:
Will have a looksie
ASMO, maybe add this plugin which allows image uploads (hosted on postimages.org not here so won't take server space)

I tested it on the test site and it didnt like the lightbox image extension i am using, and to be honest i prefer that extension over this, i may trial uploading on to my server, if the size becomes too big i may turn it off.

Any idea why the site now kicks me (logs me) out after an hour or so. Ball ache having to re-log in every time I come back for some light (or in the 'So Coronavirus' case - fucking awful) entertainment? Must be a "stay logged in" setting or such I've missed. Mucho appreciated.

I have the same problem having to login regularly. It started after I cleared out my history when Asmo changed servers, or something.

By the way I am using an iPhone and Chrome.

I have changed no settings, i have just double checked and persistant/remember me logins are enabled with no expiry time set, so i think it might be a local issue and not the site as mine works perfectly.

For the first time in ages I wasn’t logged out of the bored after being away for a bit. Did you change anything, Asmo?

I tried to find out how to upload photos to the bored, but couldn’t find a link.
