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 🤯

Looks like it's been updated. Works fine on Windows 10 and Android.

If it still looks like this, you might have problems :lol:

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

Have you got the latest iOS updates? Just tried on Mrs. Air and she said my Son had to reset all the browser and clear cookies after last updates as the browser was been erratic.😬

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.

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.

I have the OMOC as a tile on my i phone alongside other Apps but now when I press it I get misdirected request as well, how do I fix it.

Thanks, that looks like it is related to a server side change. I have made some adjustments, does it work now?

mine doesnt so ive deleted it completely and can only get in by going to google first then searching for opel manta owners club then saving the results as an " add to home screen" seems to work that way but still a different layout to what it was before and got used to .guess il just have to learn my way around it .

you mention an update which explains the site access differences. can an admin just confirm that they have redesigned the site look thou please

You're still seeing something say "misdirected request"?

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.

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

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?

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.
