    Ok here's a few more things driving me nuts on the new site.
    to see the pictures I tap on it and it blows it up to view it which is great but the only way to get back to where I can view the rest of the thread is leave and come back.(pic 1)

    The only way I can seem to be able to get to my watched threads or forums is to tap my name and on that drop down tap people or following then it show a drop down that contains watched items.
    (Edit cancel this part I see the word Forum is really a drop down and has the watched)
    It still does not alert me on some of the threads or the forums I asked for alerts on(pic2) the two threads in bold never sent alerts and I double checked they are mark to alert me.

    I use Feedly to read the different forums. Since Tapatalk is down, is it safe to say that Feedly will not work as well, being that (I think) they are both rss readers?

    I set the maximum allowed size for the pics waaaay too large. I've enabled auto-resizing now, so hopefully that issue won't be a problem with new uploads going forward.
    We're testing a sub-navigation bar to bring some of the elements you asked for to the forefront. As always, it's a trade-off with screen space.
     
    Big Don, Wild Murphy and tsavory Thank this.

    I don't know anything about Feedly, but if you were using Feedly to read TruckersReport on the old forum it should work on the new one, as long as it doesn't require us to install Feedly code on TruckersReport. Your Feedly settings for this site might need to be 'refreshed' (or something along those lines) so it knows to search for the new RSS feed locations, as those urls probably changed.
     
    postmandav and tsavory Thank this.

    You were correct. For anyone using feedly to view the forums, all you have to do is open the first page of a specific forum, copy the url, open feedly. Then you hit the add content tab, and paste the url into the box.
     
    Admin Thanks this.
