No, but my Mrs iPad is weird with some sits, hers is an Air, mine is a pro, it affects some sites especially Facebook after its update. I suspect it's the coding of the site. Can you try it in chrome or other browser as I think the functionality of the iPad. edit has moved too and The activity on the right hand side no longer takes my to the new posts within the thread. It also no longer shows as bold for unread 🤯 Edited November 9, 2020 by Jessopia74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 mine is an air as well so may be something to do with that . just wanting to make sure that everyone else has the same .different typeface,green instead of red alarm too . surely the owners know if this is correct or not otherwise im not sure i dare use it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it still looks like this, you might have problems mine actually works ok just looks different . the red bell is now green . text is thicker and different . thought maybee the club had just redesigned the site .maybee its an update like you say . thought maybee the omoc owners of the club/ site may know thats all. didnt want to be using it if its a bogus site or mine had been hacked if thats possible. or im just an old git that hates change ! that sounds more like it lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoo2000 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Yes, there was an update to the latest version of Invision Community, we always keep up with the latest releases however we did get a little behind this time (4.5 has been out for a few months) but that has given the software time to stabilize after a major update. 21 hours ago, cam.in.head said: and also lost the ability to close the page or swap websites .have to double click home button to get site off screen. doesnt happen on any other sites,ebay,google,other car forums etc ?... If you've added the site to your home screen and access via that, this is something called a 'Progressive Web Application' where your device will try to treat the site like a real standalone application rather than just a normal web browser (it's still a web browser underneath, but it doesn't have the typical browser interface). This isn't new though, it was a feature added at least 12 months ago. One of the cool new things that 4.5 enables is a real App for your phone, it's still in development but Android users can get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.invisioncommunity.communities When approved, OMOC will be listed under the automotive category. iOS deals with early access apps a different way, so I'm afraid you'll need to wait for general release. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're still seeing something say "misdirected request"? 25 minutes ago, cam.in.head said: you mention an update which explains the site access differences. can an admin just confirm that they have redesigned the site look thou please Yes, the latest version of the platform we use had a new design - https://invisioncommunity.com/news/product-updates/45-introducing-our-updated-default-theme-r1198/ our design is based on the default theme but with OMOC brand colours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 no,i got the misdirected request by using the original "add to home screen" icon that i used to use so deleted that and now can only get on via google . it seems to work ok its only one step more than before. i cannot add the actual homepage as i used to before because it just brings up a black bar at top and no way of exiting the page or switching between other sites so il do it this way. thanks for replies also when you talk of 'platforms and other computer jargon im lost im afraid (wrong era for me !) lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

®evo03 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Lost all fields. Can't post. Can't send a pm as message field is gone. I have title. That's it? When I try to reply to post on forum. Nothing happens. Weird looking too, wouldn't call it an update, maybe downgrade! Is it meant to look 1985 retro! Looks OK on phone, same as before really. What's going on?

What's going on? It looks like you're using a really old Android (v4) tablet with a really old version of Chrome (v36 - released 6 years ago). You'll need to use a more modern browser if you're having issues with how the site looks (it uses newer styling techniques that older browers do not support). Having a quick look online, you should at least be able to upgrade to a newer version of Chrome on that version of Android. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
