Yeah, are you using the Chrome browser on Android mobile?

If so, then it’s a recognised bug in Chrome.

See here and here above.

I believe there is a fix in the works for it so when Chrome next gets updated it should be OK. Nothing we can do about it though until Google works its magic.

One thing you can try is to click above or below the button you’re trying to press by the height of the URL bar in the browser. But it’s still very fiddly.

Edit: here’s the Chromium bug report.

Ah thanks. So it’s not me. Good to know. May use another browser or just curb my sotonians replies until I am on a PC.

Hey @saintbletch, any way to colour text in response, I’ve tried using HTML tags but they don’t work.

Discourse saying something about needing a plug in??

164

Yeah there is a BBCode plugin that I could install but I didn’t want to as I like order and cleanliness.

It allows you to change fonts and font sizes, etc.

If you force me I will install it for you, but it will require a forum rebuild and bounce so I’ll do it late one night.

I’ve also got a gallery plugin that I want to install for @lifeintheslowlane and other snappers.

So, see @saintbletch’s answer above, should we have the ability to change font colours and sizes in our posts??

  • Yes, we want to change font colours and sizes
  • No, blandness get’s me going

I’m against being able to adjust colours, fonts and type sizes in the forum. It makes for anarchy and trust me, there are some who will make full use of it. It will make the CAPS LOCK CUNTS seem like a blessed relief.

I don’t seem able to make video clips expand out to full screen. Can someone help me please?

Hello, I’m here to help.

Before I can start to address your challenges I just need a little bit of information.

  1. What theme are you using?
  2. Can you give me a link to an example video thsy you’re trying to make full screen?
  3. What device are you using?

Once I have this information I will start to resolve your problem.

We commit to a response time of 5 working days.

Hugs and kisses.

Lol. True Phil.

Sorry for being time-racist.

If the members vote for this ability expect the forum to stop being this lovely ordered and clean place to looking like an advert for the circus.

And then I’ll get the “I can’t read @BTripz’s post in the Vincent theme”.

And I’ll have to say, “that’s good perhaps I was wrong about using colours”

What’s the “Gallery” plug-in? Any online examples. The phpBB Forum I mod on has a massive gallery.

176

Well, some would say we are a bunch of clowns already* so an advert for the circus coming to town would be apt.

:clown_face:

*Well, Mrs C_S does.

177

This shows the tech rather than the images, but you’ll get the idea…

178

Looks good…the instructional answers all the questions I was going to ask. Is there much work involved or is it a complete plug-in package.

Not sure how much use it will get but if it’s a simple upgrade and it’s free I say go for it. :lou_lol:

179

Yeah, it’s free (as in speech and as in beer) and is a one time install. So no real effort for me.

I’ll get to it tonight or over the weekend.

I’m really looking forward to seeing people’s images - and match day drinking club pictures from sober pre-match to @Fowllyd being wallet wankered.

Do it whilst the England game is on.

I have been told we are going to see the daughter and son inlaw on Saturday and they live in a place with very little internet and even less bars with World cup football in them.
