+1 for all that JoeyDuck requested/said.
The sig line separation, reply box staying on the same page, etc...
Im using firefox and it has been all white with no changes at any time over the past two days. I also used my tablet this morning and its all white as well but isnt using firefox.
The continuous page works on my tablet but not the computer...thankfully, as i prefer the computer. When it continues, it sends me through all the next posts and i have to scroll back to where i left off to continue reading in order lol Not a huge deal, but annoying. Not sure if anyone else experienced that.
Bolding certain words or putting in spaces atleast, to separate things would be nice - like the join date, location, bikes, etc on the left side.

you may find the mobile version useful when away from wifi or just when you want to surf, read, and not post.

Yes I find it unbearable to post on the mobile site. I have always used to full site on my devices. Much easier.

Sincere thanks to those who have offered suggestions and to the tech team working on fixes. Typing this on a PC rather than my Android...
I saw the earlier post about CKE after I posted (and apparently while you were replying). I tried it and added the following to my post... Edit: switched to CKEditor, and get the same results. Essentially, if I try to press-and-hold in the text box, what actually gets selected is text outside the text box. This wasn't a problem in Go Advanced before.
Thanks, eschlwc. I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm 99% sure I don't have Adblock installed for Firefox on my Android. I'll check just in case.
Well, I'm not trying to just be contrary, but no, when I click 'My Threads' I get a list of what appears to be every thread I've ever posted in, regardless of who started it. Yes, it looks like the advanced search option is a functional work-around for the moment, but it's extra effort for the same result (which seems to be happening a lot around this upgrade).

to help clarify, I have two browsers on my phone. one is called Adblock Browser. The other is called Chrome. Adblock Browser will not allow me to paste from the clipboard into a BF dialogue box. Chrome does allow it. I am unsure if Adblock Browser worked in this way before the BF software upgrade.

They said they are still working on that aspect. Though you won't get the notification I wrote this. Happy face.

I was just replying to a post in the Commuter Bike Pics thread: https://www.bikeforums.net/commuting/...ycle-pics.html
While replying the Quote Reply page loaded the same width as very large (wide) photos. Causing the Submit Reply and Preview Post buttons to not be in an easily accessible location without scrolling way over or zooming out.
100% view and 25% view are below.

Oh good! I dont want that on my computer so thats nice. I mustve forgotten that i read what that would be used on lol. It happened around 3-4pm i think (which is "morning" to me lol)...The tablet is an Amazon Fire, so im not sure what OS they use. Ill check again in a bit on the tablet. I dont use it often for BF for it to really be an issue for me. It slowed things down a bit, both having to retrace my steps and with the actual loading of new posts, but its not really a big deal for me. Thought id mention it anyway though.

Phantom next page number at ends of threads. Clicking either the page number or next arrow just reloads the page you are currently viewing. I've seen it on other vBulletin sites. Was not an issue before the upgrade.

I had the same issue earlier today. Can't remember the thread. I have it set to display 30 posts per page and it was at 90. There was the number for a 4th page, but there weren't any more posts, so it cycled me back to the top of page 3 when I hit the next page button. I think someone posted a few more posts so that stopped. Sorry I can't remember that exact thread. It also happened today on a thread in C&V called "retro roadies - classic frames with sti/ergo" or something like that. Way more than 3 pages, but it just kept cycling me back to the top of the page I was on until I realized that it was another pagination issue.

Currently, these 2 threads are doing the phantom next page thing for me (and neither should be at the end of its page):

Being a minimalist, I'm not concerned about mentions. I just read and follow up.

Just my opinion but the yellow background for posts is pretty distracting. On a Mac there are already lines drawn around the post, so the extra color doesn't seem to be necessary.
On my iPad there's no style at all, just plain text. It's different but I actually like it.

Since the remuddle the "Forum Jump" function is not working for me. It generates an "Invalid" message.
Is this on the list of things to be fixed?
Thanks for any information.
