    Could the "New Thread" button be re-positioned over to the left of the BOARDS.IE logo as it's fair annoying when I get a new PM that three times out of five I manage to accidentally click on said "New Thread" button, and the touch site is unresponsive and slow enough without having to go through the whole rigmarole of going back to the main page and then trying once again to get my thumb right between the Forum Listings button and the New Thread button.

    The following is lifted from boards.ie/diagnostics (It opens the full site on my phone):

    My phone is a Nokia N8, and without making a separate thread for it, would it be possible to create a diagnostics page for touch devices so we wouldn't encounter this fine literary example upon typing "touch.boards.ie/diagnostics" -


    404 - Not Found

    Once upon a midnight dreary,

    while I websurfed, weak and weary,

    Over many a strange and spurious website

    of 'hot chicks galore',

    While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark,

    suddenly there came a warning,

    And my heart was filled with mourning,

    mourning for my dear amour.

    "'Tis not possible," I muttered,

    "give me back my cheap hardcore!" -

    Quoth the server, "404".


    :D

    We won't be altering the position of the create content button any time soon.

    A touch-specific diagnostics page could come in handy, we'll add it to the list. Thanks for the suggestion

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
