    no, just a short poll. we did a forced message at top for 3 days or so. any user logging in those days would see message.

    Sorry, Rob, I just opened my conversation page, and nowhere on the page do I see any options like "Like", "+Quote" or "Reply". The only option below each message is "Report".

    what theme are you using? you are only going to see 100% of the functionality on the new theme. we're are trying to accommodate some personal preferences for users, but we can't perfectly code 6 different versions with 100% of the functionality. only the new theme has everything, but the old versions should still be 99%. also mobile versions have to cut back on some functionality or it would never fit everything in that environment.

    I'm using what I guess you're calling the "old theme". I can't stand the new theme. Are there more than 2 options?

    There are 4 total.

    So all that functionality is still available on Old Theme too, I just tested.

    Okay, Rob, so you could see what I'm dealing with, here is a screenshot of my entire screen for this conversation. Still no Like/+Quote/Reply buttons visible. If I want to respond to the post marked "Tuesday at", how do I do it?

    you can't like a conversation, you can't reply to a conversation if other person left it. I will send you message now and see if you can reply.

    That seems to have worked. Please check the "test" conversation that you started and see if you can see my replies. Thanks, Rob.

    Malicious adds and pop ups are getting it of hand on the mobile version. Any ideas?

    Old style for me works. Still miss being able to have threads in reverse order. But that’s about it.

    so the majority of pop-ups or redirects within mobile devices are either 1) malware 2) rogue ad. both Jack and I had that problem a couple weeks ago with Amazon ad redirects. I contacted EVERYONE from software company to ad networks. they couldn't find it. the rogue ads usually take a couple days for the ad networks to find them and block. I didn't know possible to get malware on phone and I didn't do anything to clean it, but the ad stopped appearing after few days.

    As of today most of the pops are now being blocked, I get a notice that a pop was blocked. It's a random thing so I can't even say where or when it happens. If the blocker doesn't catch anything I'll let you know. In the meantime thanks:)
    I had no idea that malicious ad pop-ups existed for mobile, but why not it's simply fishing and for those not tech savvy they'd get nailed by following the link..

    Great Job! I knew it was coming and quite frankly it came very natural to me. I've been doing these things from the very beginning! Do any of you remember Archie and the like?
    Rob you have to look at the probably thousands of users that just go with the flow, you're always going to get the few that don't see the need for change but like it or not it has to happen. Other wise we should all be using 9600 baud modem for internet! Ferrari and the like will always build new models, if you don't you can't succeed. Doesn't mean the old models are crap, they did exactly what needed to be done then, Now the new model is out. There are going to be grumblings, that is just natural it's what humans do.

    Again, Thank you for all the hard work and keep it up!
    This is a Great community!

    Any way to see how many and who is following you?

    I see options to follow someone, ignore someone

    No option to see who's stalking me. Kind of creepy having folks following you that you may not want around

    Any options for this?

    Cant edit my post

    I think something simple like this that populated per user and a button in the privacy settings would do the trick

    Code:
    DELETE FROM `xf_user_follow` WHERE `user_id` = 1 OR `follow_user_id` = 1
