    Hi there,

    I have been browsing Boards as I usually do as I was looking at one of the YLYL threads and tried to thank some images.

    However, when I do this it takes me to the reply page as if I clicked on reply instead of thank.

    I have a video of it below I recorded so you can see.

    I'm using the 2013 Nexus 7 running Android 4.4 KitKat.

    Apologies if this is the wrong area.

    Thanks!

    Edit: Link doesn't seem to be working, I'll try DropBox

    I have.

    Restarted my tablet too.

    I actually replied to your comment using the Thank button :rolleyes:

    You might want to start an OP in the Development forum. They are grand for solving bugs.

    Thanks! Would you be able to move this thread for me or should I just create another?

    It worked before with no problems so it must be enabled.

    Very weird.

    That's quite a strange one, thanks for recording a video of it though.

    I've installed Adblock Plus on my own device, cause I saw you had it running and then I was able to reproduce the same issues you were experiencing. If you turn off ABP's filtering just for a moment and refresh the page, do you find that the Thanks button works fine again?

    Thanks,
    Alvis.

    I turned it off and on and it's very weird.

    Sometimes it'll let me thank a post and other times it won't.

    Gonna unroot my tablet and stuff very soon so I'm sure that'll fix the problem.

    Thank you all for your help.

    I'm having same issue on my nexus 7. Can't view thanks. It usually opens the profile of the poster below the thanked post

    This is happening for me on the touch site on my Nexus 7 as well but it's intermittent. If I return to the thread & try to Thank again it will (usually) work. Just noticed it in the past week.

    Another issue that I've seemed to always had at least on my Nexus 7 is if I make a post and hit post reply sometimes the page will hang.

    The only way to fix it is to press the back button then go forward and press post reply again.

    Very annoying.

    2 months later and I still have this issue!

    Nothing has been done to fix it sadly.

    I suppose I'll just have to use the Boards app for now.

    I'm using the m.boards.ie on my Nexus 7 and it works just fine. Maybe switch to that while they sort out touch.

    m.boards.ie does have an execution notice over it so don't get too attached (It's a shame because it is the far better mobile interface for tablets and smartphones!).

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.
