@LuFins-Dad It's a master control for the whole forum.

This thread is tagged "george gripes," so indulge me.

The YouTube plug-in appears to work fine, but the window is annoyingly small, making the video basically unwatchable without opening another tab/window.

Is the adjustable?

LOL I was thinking the same thing, but thought it maybe was just me and the type of broker and operating system I had. 555

@George-K I'm annoyed by the small YT embedding, too. Theoretically, it should be possible to adapt the size of the embedding, but right now there seems to be some compatibility issue between the plugin and the current nodebb version...

Unless I missed it above, it seems if I have a page open (on a specific thread), it doesn't auto-update as folks reply unless I refresh the page. Previously, I think, the page refreshed content automatically.

Hey @George-K I think I managed to increase the size of embedded YT videos.

I have trouble with a Quick Reply on the iPhone.

The Blue line covers the Quick Reply button, I can't get at it to click it. Changing to Landscape doesn't help.

No problem on the PC.

What am I missing?

It’s too large now for mobile devices. Actually obnoxiously large, can’t fit 1/4 of the video on the screen, and it shrinks the rest…

I run into the same issue. You can jiggle it around until the tab pops above or below the line.

[Mik]

Yeah, I get that sporadically too.

The trick to fix the iPhone "quick reply" issue is this:

1. Tap outside the "quick reply" box
2. Tap back into the "quick reply" box

That's it, after step 2 there is a high likelihood that you will see an unobstructed "quick reply" button.

@Klaus is there an easy (via settings) way to remove the "votes" total when looking at the list of threads? I'm not even sure we can vote and I mainly look at post count. Heck, I don't even need "views". Clearly this is all about me.

[Klaus]

"votes"? Can you post a screenshot? I can only see "views" and "posts".

Scroll down a couple pages - a third column appears.

[89th]

Interesting, the first 20 threads do not have it, then it appears for threads starting with 21. But... if I scroll back up, then it appears for all threads:

[Klaus]

Yes, I see it, too.

The theme offers few configuration options. The only way to get rid of it would be to change the whole theme. However, last time we tried that, there were, AFAI remember, issues with Twitter links and/or spoilers. Maybe those bugs were addressed in the meantime, but maybe they are not...

[George K]

Is this a major problem, or just something that annoys 89th?
