ATS looks much better

Everything LOOKS identical on my iPad. New reply functions ect. working but no visual change?

This "body width" format change should only be seen by desktop users.

OK, so when I press 'reply', it shows up in a little window...is there any way to get rid of it beyond pressing refresh?

Hmmmm


OTG?


On The Go... now you can keep up with ATS On The Go with new live feed direct to your mobile with our ATS OTG APP.
Get notifications when someone replies to your posts or thread, get a nice Ping noise when you get an applause and get a Debbie Downer noise when you get a post removed!!





Am I close?

About that, what's the thinking behind the narrower body width?

"something new on the way"


It's not here yet. Just a teaser. But some members really like OTG.

Yes, there certainly is. Looks like MSIE is entirely broken, though. Lots of stuff no longer works. I'll wait a couple of days before trying to compile a list. I'm on chrome now.

What specifically? I was testing on IE just before I did the cut-over.

OK. I'm on both at once now so I can page back and forth.

1. List of posts (The open rope thingie fourth from right at top) won;t show the actual list of posts. It's just blank. Had that issue once before during the last switch, but it corrected later on.

2. Click on "Recent" then click on a thread and thread does not show up, plus takes a long long time. I'm getting a blank white screen instead of a list of the thread posts. The URL looks legit: Example: www.abovetopsecret.com... is on the address, but i just get a white screen. Backspace will SOMETIMES return me, but sometimes not. Looks hung up to me.

3. Can't back out of a reply. Hit "reply" Change my mind about posting, back arrow, no result.

I'll post this and keep on looking for the next few minutes.....

I just tried it on my ps vita and it runs a lot smoother although I can never seem to figure out how to log in on it...lol
Operator error.

It's an anagram of GOT, Game Of Thrones!! members will battle it out for ultimate control of the Iron throne and to be yours and Springers Hand...er....OK, that could be weird, but...um... yeah, something like that.

About that, what's the thinking behind the narrower body width?

Mentioned previously… our stats indicated that there was a significant enough legacy of older systems not able to handle the CSS/HTML of the wider format, and it was beginning to hurt our overall traffic.

We're going to have a member-selectable "WIDE-SCREEN" option for logged-in members soon, but these changes need to be "baked in" first.

Thanks, I understand that answer more than the earlier briefer one. As long as we can select to widen in the future:

A few more:

4. abovetopsecret script not responding. This after clicking on a post by Zaphod about Korean airliner. MSIE hung at this point. Had to close down and reopen.

5. Re-opened, tried to get back to thread. Thread itself wouldn't open this time. Everything stopped working. Closed down to reopen.

Looks like I'm basically non-functional at this point. Not enough working to test. I can usually get past the first set of menus, but then it hangs. I just went through "MyATS" which worked, but when I attempted to click on a thread, nothing happened.

Um, what is OTG Mr O. I bet its obvious and I'm gonna look like a dumbo.

Ctrl +/- are your friends if your screen is too small/large,

zoom in out feature

True, but doing so makes it look disproportionate and weird. Ahhh, why always fix what isn't broken!

It hasn't been announced yet. That's just a "hey, something new is coming" heads up type thing. You'll find out though.

Looks like it. I just did a test with Mozilla. The only "constant" issue on all three (IE, Chrome, Mozilla) is that if I hit reply and change my mind, then hit back arrow, I'm dumped out of the thread and back to the list of threads insteaf of to the list of posts in the thread itself. One can argue over whether this is "wrong," but it surely is different than it used to be.

But, on the whole these look like IE issues.

Just refresh page instead of using "back" and you'll stay in thread

Great additions .. Hope they stay too.

Well done overlord

Preview is working now.

The boss said we all have to pretend to be in Game of thrones or something like that. I've never seen GOT so does that mean that i am at a disadvantage to win the metal seat or whatever it was.
