General usability (of this forum) with SFOS browser

the 90's

@szopin

My workaround so far is Notes app (just write all beforehand and just paste)

Uh, that sounds so 1990’s…
No problems with newline / carriage returns?

But when I switch to landscape I can see the preview. Handy when you are posting links, oneboxes, quotes…

[szopin]

Oh with quoting/partial quoting it will almost for sure not work, but no issues with crlf from what I’ve seen for now (still hoping 3.4.0 browser update will make it somewhat usable at least, we’ll have to wait and see)

[szopin]

My guess: You’ve performe-d this action too many times, pls wait 1 minute bef-ore searching again? Not sure what else could be rate limited

Summary

@szopin

My guess: You’ve performe-d this action too many times, pls wait 1 minute bef-ore searching again? Not sure what else could be rate limited

Yes!
But which action? I swiped away the browser to read an email and then that popped up.

[szopin]

Oh… No idea then, unless you left the browser on search results and it auto-reloaded it triggering that? If search was not involved really not sure (check url next time, ending could give hints on what went wrong)

How to delete uploaded attachments

… Interesting to see to be able click onto at top right of an other member’s post, which work if logged in. [Side note: There migth be a better symbol for 'Post's History View', and how many times edited shall not shown] … As for the even if not logged in, they can be looked up through the deep-link of course need to know the excat name of it, if mistyped one can see this server seems based on OPENRESTY. Anyway. … At least: Now we know care needed by thr…

for further discussion.

Now quoting above post swithout the third picture attachment link:

But for this one?

Moving this thread under Applications. It is not related this site (forum.sailfishos.org)

[Inte]

No issues on this site with the current (3.4.0.22) default browser.

[ahappyhuman]

The keyboard still overlays the composing window for me, which sucks.

[vige]

We have an open bug report about that in our internal bug tracker

[peterleinchen]

Thanks for letting us know…

inappropriate?

General usability (of this forum) with SFOS browser

As written above in the edit I would like to know what makes you think this is inappropriate?
Please make use of PM…

[Inte]

You are right. I was using the forum with the Gemini PDA (no virtual keyboard). On my Xperia XA2 the composing window is hidden by the vk when replying to posts (but not when creating new posts)

[peterleinchen]

So, something changed. I guess new version of forum SW?
See log out button gone?.
Minor annoyance but something I hate also in real life web site behavior, change as change is progress and no change is standstill? But moving buttons around or changing name to icon or such stuff is just … imho (do not take this too serious ).

Another thing I noticed is that the buttons in the hamburger menu (Latest, Unread, Badges and so on) inside the native browser in SFOS 3.2 do not work anymore. But only in landscape orientation, in portrait they work as usual!??
The newer browser in SFOS 3.4 does not show this behavior!

[peterleinchen]

(latest) SFOS version 4.1.0.23 EA
and SF browser still cannot let me know what is wrong with trying to post something on this forum. And especially only let me dismiss this popup in landscape mode.

Please see the screenshots (portrait and landscape):

[lkraav]

Curious, no fix ideas in last 8 months? This blind typing just isn’t fun anymore, esp. when predictive tezt input isn’t qvqilable on aarch64.

[vige]

Actually, we do have fix ideas. And I believe there is even a good chance that we will get the fix in the next release.

Have you tried Workaround for Keyboard hiding Input Panel when replying to the Forum ?

[Se]

The workaround works good on Verla (4.2). i configured it that the input field is on top of the Keyboard.

But after I updated sfos to 4.3 unfortunately the input field now appears in top of the screen.

[vige]

What do you mean? I’m writing this on 4.3.0, and the input field is exactly where it’s supposed to be: on top of the keyboard. No workarounds necessary.
