Site appearance

Hey John,

How much control do you have over the look and feel of the site.

Its no biggie but I notice on my PC regardless of browser the left column just has text saying "No New Posts" or "New Posts". You have to focus pretty decent on them to see which ones have new posts.


But when I open it on my phone there is a folder icon and any with new posts have the word new on the folder.

Only a little thing but I wondered if its the same for other people? Its not often this happens but I actually prefer the mobile version for this forum.

Hey mate, yes I know what you mean. It's the pro boards version of software that controls that and is different for the mobile version for whatever reason...I will look into it though. Thanks for the feedback

Hey binny what browser and software are you using? My phones both samsung and apple show the new post icon but my computer wont and its running firefox. have been told that it might be browsers and settings related at the user end

I use chrome mate. It looks the same on IE 11 as well.
My phone browser is the stock HTC one rather than chrome. I don't think it matters though. Proboards is detecting that our phones, ipads etc are a mobile device and serving the Mobile version of the site suited to touch. It also happens to be much nicer visually I reckon. I just selected "request desktop site" on my phone and it now looks the same as the computer.
There must be a way to tweak the look and feel of the desktop version.
