    Is there a way of switching back to normal mode on mobile coz I don't really like the mobile version.

    Nope. Leave it with me, I'll install another Foot.ie theme without the detection script.

    What don't you like about the mobile version?

    Was scared of that question! Naw its just the way you can't see in the front page which of the sub threads has the update or who has posted last message. It's laziness I suppose coz sometimes don't have a lot of time.

    Fair enough. I've installed a different detection script now, see how you get on with that. I haven't tried it myself yet.

    I like the fact there is a mobile version but there are several little things that annoy me, the issue Magicme noted above, and the fact you can't thank posts for instance.

    That said, I imagine it's very difficult to reduce the entire forum to one mobile-sized screen- no matter how many changes are made it will always miss something from the desktop site.

    Click Desktop View at the top of the page.

    Absolutely, and you'll always have people that want another feature. Mobile view is lightweight view, so it'll always have basic functionality.

    Had tried the desktop button before and it didn't work so didn't think of it again, thanks. It's good to have options!

    It should reset for every session, i.e. the first time you hit the site after opening your browser you'll be redirected to the mobile style, but if you manually choose the desktop style, it'll stick with that until you close your browser.

    Cheers for the new mobile skin. Little things like bringing you to the first unread post in a thread makes it so much more user friendly than the last one.

    No worries, thanks for the feedback.

    Dodge, can you try clearing your cache? The skin actually has a setting for crapple stuff, and it's definitely enabled.

    The new mobile style looks good but is there or could you enable any way of going directly to the last post? I know it's not a big deal having to click to the last page but the previous mobile style was handier in that regard.

    Meant to post about this, the new style is bundled with vBulletin and there are certainly a few problems with it, for example it also doesn't have subbed threads available, which is a particular annoyance to me. I'm going to file bug requests for that and your suggestion above, and if they don't fix them by the next release, I'll likely switch back to the other style until they fix it, ok?
