    It didn't for me although that was before you made this thread - I've manually changed it so not sure if I can test that again other than clearing cookies which will be a right arse.

    Anyway, one slight change I wouldn't mind seeing if you can is to have a "go to first unread" link on the forum view.

    I'll have a look at customising the mobile skin tomorrow, no reason why I can't.

    Hi Prentice, Just wondering: The normal site has always worked absolutely fine on my Andriod and Windows mobiles and mobile skins more often than not reduce functionality and useability - is a mobile skin actually needed? and what mobile platforms can't deal with the 'full' site?

    You can revert back to the full site if desired, Scalex.

    The mobile skin doesn't reduce functionality in terms of posting on the forum so much, it makes it easier and clearer with a small navigational button in the corner. It's just personal preference whether you prefer to have that on a mobile or not I guess.

    Links

    You may start to notice that links appear in your posts, this is part of a new advertising initiative brought in to help raise funds to keep the forum running.

    Basically, when you write a particular product, i.e.

    Canon Powershot G12

    It'll automatically be turned into a link to an affiliate, in this case, John Lewis, where you could go and buy said product.

    It'll also work with URL's to external websites that are part of the programme, i.e.

    http://www.johnlewis.com/230475872/Product.aspx

    Of course, if you're feeling generous like Padds and don't mind being a rich benefactor, feel free.

    That's a joke.. don't send me money

    Unfortunately, I'm not 100% sure on what this does/doesn't work with just yet.

    Mobile Skin

    If you haven't noticed already we now have a Mobile Skin. So on your phones, it should auto detect, but feel free to bookmark http://m.wfcforums.com on there.

    Can you change the background from the disgusting yellow that's being used now? It's vile!

    Believe it or not, it's the same yellow that's used in parts on the main forum.

    I don't think it looks that bad at all, there is less options with the mobile forum software.

    Nice and easy to use Prentice and loads a lot easier than trying to access the main forums on 3G.

    Facebook

    Facebook Connect now works, if you wish to connect accounts, then click the button at the top.

    You will also notice a button at the bottom when you create threads, that allows you publish what you're creating direct to Facebook too.

    Still think the button should be the standard Facebook blue. Good feature though, not that I'll be using it.
