haha you guys crack me up! wink. wink. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Ok guys - that is PERFECT then. Seems as though only iPhone users are having the issue I described with the extra space on the right. Thanks again for the help! Chad

One quick question guys (those who can access the site via phone) - is the site width taking up the entire screen on your phone (like it should)? Or is there some empty white space to the right? Hopefully I fixed that issue but it tough cause I can't really test it easily. Thanks for the help! Chad By the way I "split" this topic into its own new topic incase you were wondering.

Wow guys - that really looks nice! Thanks for testing out the response there for me. It shows a cool little "Posted from my mobile device" icon as expected. It should be REALLY fast as well as we have stripped out all the images (except for those native to the post itself) and made the mobile site entirely text/css based. Well I hope you enjoy it! Now you can take LOU everywhere you want. Should be really handy to check fishing reports WHILE you are actually out on the water. Cheers - Chad

Hey Nitro - Thanks for the headsup! Funny you mention that cause one of our "top secret" projects now for a while (since May of this year) has been working on code name "MOBILE LOU". This is basically a slimmed down version of the LOU site that only displays if the user is trying to access the site via a mobile device (such as the WinMobile device you described). The idea I had here was to allow for instant fishing reports while live on the water! I have put it up for those with phones to try out and see how they like it. If you could, respond to this message FROM YOUR PHONE using the new LOU Mobile site. You should see the little "mobile live" icon that it displays. Instant Live fishing reports is available to anyone who has a phone. By default the system will recognize that you are browsing the website from a mobile device and display the proper format allowing for instant fishing reports. Thanks again Nitro! Chad

Doug - GREAT fish! Thank you for sharing...... you really take some amazing photos! I can't wait to use some in the LOU slideshow. Keep up the great work. Chad

Happy Birthday Buddy! You can take the day off from your normal moderator duties on the site

Guys - Thanks for the heads up! I got this message from several other members as well. I have banned this user by IP address, email address and username! Hopefully this will no longer be an issue but I will be keeping a close eye on it. Thanks again for letting me know - this is definitely a new kind of spam we have not seen before. Kind regards - Chad

Hey guys - Just wanted to give you a heads up that the new board has a "Birthday" feature (see the bottom of the page) that will display your username when it is your birthday. This information was never available before on the old board, so there is nothing in there for any member yet. If you want your name to display when it is your birthday, then you need to simply visit your profile and be sure to fill in your birthday information. Here is the link so save ya some time searching: ucp.php?i=profile&mode=profile_info Again, this is optional, but a fun little new feature. Just an FYI - Thanks, Chad

Stan - There is a link I added to the home page called "Mark ALL Forums Read". It is located just above the main forum on the right side there. This is a temp fix for the issue you mentioned. I am not sure what direction I am going to go with this yet but for the time being, this is a suitable alternative until we decide if we want to automate this or not. Thanks - Chad

How's that look Bob

Matt - I found the information below on the some reasoning behind the changes to "Read Tracking" from phpBB2 to phpBB3. While I am not myself sure whether or not I agree the following yet, it does offer more insight. I (like yourself) was accustomed to having all the topics be marked as "read" after I logged out each time. Let me think about this more and I will be interested to hear your (and other's) opinion on the issue. ========

There should be one there at the bottom (right under the quick reply). Go to page Previous 1, 2 (or however many other pages are associated with the current topic. Do you see that Matt on your computer? If not, what browser and OS are you running? Thanks buddy - Chad

Hey Matt - How many posts per page doesn't seem to be a setting that the members can control on their end. I can control that setting on the admin side. For the time issue - I am seeing the correct time on my end. Maybe its a daylight savings issue you are having with yours. There is also a way to customize your time display (and location I think) under your profile > board preferences section. Check that out - it might fix your issue. Thanks again! Chad

Hey guys - Thanks for all the great feedback! Stan and Ray - I am looking into both those issues. We did our best in the Alpha and Beta testing to find all the issues but I expected a couple more things would come once you let the masses in. Thanks for bringing this to my attention as I am can not by myself catch 100% of everything. I'll look into both those issues and get back to you with what I find. Thanks again! Chad

Try it now Bob - Good Catch!
