Responsive Design

Is this why everyone's posts are in a different place? The wider the info on the left (name, status etc) the further over to the right that the text of the post is positioned. Eg this post is a lot further to the right than Robert's.

And my signature now goes all the way across rather than just beneath the post.

Edit to note that the above no longer apply!

I'm still tweaking but generally it should improve the layout and experience for mobile users. I'll take a look at the squidiged issue too!

Great hear Anne, thanks for the feedback! 😊

Sue, those issues you mentioned should now be diminished.

The image thing Jesnon might be a little tougher to solve. They're created by a script and then resized on the fly, if I have the time I'll dig in to the codebase and see what can be done. 😊

Ah, thanks Steve!

That's great to hear!

The real driving force behind it is the fact that more of us are using our phones to access content on the web (probably why the BEEB had a go too) There are millions of 'old' type designs out there which render horrendously (ooh is that a little pun) on smaller devices and where that happens people often hit the back button.

The other thing of note is that Google have announced that mobile responsiveness will also become a ranking signal in their mobile search engine results pages (SERPS). For me, the whole point of thinkfish is to get as many here as possible talking, sharing, taking the piss out of the admin as possible so if this little update helps then it's a win. 

The main site itself (outside of the forum) will be a bigger challenge as it is full of singular pages which will take me literally a month of Sundays to rejig.

In any case, thanks for the feedback, it's genuinely appreciated
