For those checking on recent posts tons thread, this new version makes it much more difficult.
At the bottom my options are now first page, last page, or type a page. So if I want to check a thread out I have to open it, infinite scroll down to allow page option, select last page, and then type in random page numbers to see what was the last post I read. Previous version allowed a back arrow to visit the past page, having to type in the page number is annoying on an iOS device.
Hey, quick update on this comment:
We have pushed an update today and the system/database of the site is now keeping track of the posts a logged in user has read, across all devices (desktop and mobile).
As such, the behavior that you should be expecting as a user of APC when you click on a thread on your mobile device is the following:
* If you are logged out: you'll see the first post
* if you are logged in: you'll EITHER see the first post (if it is a new thread that you are starting) OR the first unread
I have tried and it seems that everything is working. Let me know if this is the case or if you have a different experience.
There are a few things that we are currently looking into to improve the user experience on mobile. More soon.
Thank you.
