Re: New Website
I logged in from a hotel in Stuttgart earlier this week using my Samsung S3 mobile which on the occasion seemed reluctant to operate in anything other than portrait mode. I couldn't figure out where to find the "View your Posts" link - does it exist in mobile-world?

Re: New Website
I have more than once experienced the effect of clicking on Options - Expand View which seems to cause the whole site to lock up. Whilst this is be to be expected from a mobile it has happened on my desktop using Chrome and W7.

Re: New Website
View your posts? Do you mean view unanswered posts / view new posts / view unread posts? All of these options are available in the header and footer menus regardless of screen resolution.
Where are you finding 'Options > Expand View'? The website is designed to be responsive, therefore altering layout to suit your browser/device dimensions (scale the size of desktop browser to see what I mean).

Re: New Website
"View your posts" is what comes up under Search when I want to see the status of topics that I have subscribed to. Except that this option was not visible on my mobile.
"Options" and below that "Expand View" are visible when reading PM's in the Inbox. Clicking on the one or the other caused the site to freeze, for me at least.

Re: New Website
'Expand view' is the same option that presents itself when replying to a topic - you can expand the preview pane of previous posts in order to view the thread while you're typing your post. I have not experienced any issues on my mobile devices when using this feature, but I will check again to be sure.
As for 'View your Posts', yes, I see that this is missing from the menu when the responsive layouts kick in. I will add this for you. This link should produce a list of topics that you have replied to or started regardless of subscription status.

Re: New Website
Just to be precise: The site apparently freezing when the view is/was "expanded" happened on my W7 / Chrome desktop. I have hassle enough with my mobile (Samsung S3 Android) without trying such advanced tricks on it.
"View your posts". Agreed.
