    I quite liked the mobile interface but gave up on it since I couldn't see a 'Recent Posts' function there nor an easy way to go to the last post in a thread.

    Yes, I agree, the Mobile Style isn't great.

    I have just now added a new app for iPhone / iPad / Android OS phones. The app is called Forum Runner and allows you to browse the forum from your smartphone or iPad much faster than via a browser.

    There are 2 versions of the iPhone app: Free (is limited but allows you to try the features) and for £1.19, you get the full version, which allows you to post, upload photos, get push notifications etc...

    Here are the links for the itunes store:
    FREE version: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/forum...363534651?mt=8
    FULL version: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/forum...362527234?mt=8

    Here is the link for Android store:
    FREE version: http://www.appbrain.com/app/forum-ru...rumrunner.free
    FULL version: http://www.appbrain.com/app/forum-ru...id.forumrunner

    I have tested it, and it's really cool on the iPhone and very fast way to browse and view Private Messages...

    Hope that helps,
    Franck.

    There's an A.P.P. for that!

    Might have to fix poor Tigger though, avatar doesn't seem to like the forum runner app.

    Have changed my pic, it seemed forum runner didn't appreciate being bounced :-)

    Can anyone believe that I am the most active user of the forum according to the current "awards" page?

    Didn't think so. I've currently got an award for it though...

    Re: Forum Major upgrade and downtime!

    I've now added 2 new Styles for the Forum, for those of you who love to experiment, or if you don't like the Orange / Blue or Green styles.

    You can now select: Goth Red or Silver as your default colour / style to read the Forum!
    Franck.

    There's an A.P.P. for that!

    Hmmm, seems unlikely to be outdated, as I've just downloaded and installed the latest plugin today.
    Unfortunately I'm unable to check the Android version as I'm an Apple man, through and through!

    I'll check the Forum Runner forum to investigate further.

    That's what I thought...

    I could browse the forum runner forums with the app. I'm on Andriod 2.2; the forum runner version is 1.2.14 (free).

    Thanks.

    I miss the count of Unread Posts which seems to have disappeared (or if it hasn't, I'm looking in the wrong place ).

    Yeah, I had added it but it was breaking stuff so took it away again. Will investigate suitable alternatives!

    Re: Forum Major upgrade!

    Just noticed that on people's mini-profiles next to their post, their number of blog entries is on the same line at the 'thanked x times in x posts' info - I'm guessing this is just a matter of putting it in a different table cell.

    Re: Forum Major upgrade!

    I hate it.

    A one line post takes up half the screen, it won't let you edit anything and the more you post the more pointless notifications you get. Well these aren't gonna encourage me to post more often but rather the opposite!
