Hi Russ,

Can’t see “thread list” in thread screen

“My home” icon smaller than others.

In forum thread list view I can’t see how to navigate to “last post”

Can you explain further? I don't know what/where you mean. (See closed beta thread)

It’s just a visual thing; on the main page there is a row of icons in rounded corner rectangles. The far left one is “home” and it’s notably smaller than the rest in the row. I notice it 😄

@divegeester

The chevron "back" button will take you back up any hierarchical navigation (top left, under the logo). It will always take you back to thread's list, regardless of how you arrived at the posts.

I've been using the beta for a while, and it never occurred to me that it wasn't available in any other way as I'm using the back button now where it is available.

Give it a go, and if you are still wanting another dedicated button, I'll look at adding one.

Got it 👍

You'll need to help me out here....

Do you mean on the Home Page or the My Home page?

I'm assuming on the My Home page, the card top left of the column has a smaller gap than the others?

Also, which browser are you using?

This page: https://beta.redhotpawn.com/

Row of icons just above where it says “play online with your friends” the home icon is smaller than the rest in the row.

I feel like I’m making this this into a FAR bigger issue than it is 😂

Safari on iPad.

@divegeester

Strange, on my iPad and iPad simulator, the lozenge shaped "My Home" button is the same size as all of the others (in a vertical dimension).

Anyone else?

Hi Russ,

Further to my previous response, when viewing a thread, you can click the forum name to the right of the header with the poster's details in it (below "recommended" button) - this is a link to return to the threads list too.

This looks pretty nice. I'll be back here to rejoin and compete before the end of the year. My recent OTB events have been fun, but travel expense and adjusting my schedule around tournament dates doesn't always work for me. Correspondence chess is looking more appealing.

Good job on the site makeover. 🙂
