  1. Hello OT,

    Five seconds ago we launched our Mobile site for all users. Mods and Admins have been testing it thoroughly and we think we have it ready for public consumption. We're really excited to push this live after months of development.

    Before we announce it to the entire readership we thought we'd get some feedback from OTers. You guys spend more time on PocketFives than anyone, and we suspect many of you will come to appreciate the mobile version. Notice we put an OT quick link right in the top navigation menu!

    You'll also find quick links to News, Local, Forums, and Rankings. Player Profiles and Member Notifications are also accessible. We've tried to hone in on just the most important features for the Mobile site. If you need to access the Full Site from your mobile device (or prefer the full site on your iPad) simply click on the "Click Here for Full Site" link at the bottom of the News page.

    Fire up your mobile phone, take a look at it, and let us know what you think. It should work fine for both ios6 and Android, although we'll definitely find bugs to fix and improvements to make as we get more eyeballs on it.

    Ram (Zordon), our main mobile developer, will also be chiming in here.

    Thanks!

     
  2. oh rly
  3. I've been using it for a couple months so far and its pretty good. Glad you guys are finally rolling it out.

    Yeah first thing I noticed. It's the most important feature on this site imo.

    No, have to open the thread, then have to click across the top of the thread to which page you want to get to. then it takes you to the top of that page.

    Its mobile so some of the features you are accustom to arent there

    Meant to mention that in my first post - click on the post you want to quote and a pop up appears, giving the the option to Quote, Reply, or view that member's profile.

    For images, the best way to do it now is to type in image tags. Start with [ img ] (no spaces), then paste in the image URL, then end with [/img]. We need to think of a better solution there.

  14. Is there any way to go into the full site while browsing from your phone? I don't see how to do it.

    Agreed. I really miss it, but doesnt take long to get use to.

    I really like the speed of the mobile tho.
     
  16. Quote function doesn't work for me, when I click the thing it just turns gray and then sits there without doing anything.
  17. Sweet - loads real quick on crackberry

    Yes, click on the news page and at the bottom of that page is a link to full site.
     
  19. Without "new" or "last unread", pretty much useless. Looks nice, but I'll be using the full site until that is added. No way to keep track of 10+ page posts otherwise.

    Definitely appreciate the work, though. I've been waiting for a mobile site for a while. You just need that one feature.

  20. Not too bad but I hate change so will take a bit. Even a view first unread when I open thread would go a long way

    I have not been able to quote either.
     
  22. Hello everyone! I'm the one who developed the mobile site.

    If something it's not working please provide OS version (android, BB, IOS) and browser if possible.


    Thanks everyone!

    EDIT: looking at the quote problem

  23. Zordon. Once you tap, the quote turns gray, but there is no other action. No where to type or no other pop up that shows a post quoted. We could be missing something, but i cant get it to actually quote.

    This is great feedback, and exactly why we brought this to OT. You all know the site better than anyone, and your input is going to be really valuable in making our mobile site the best it can be
     
  25. Can you delete posts?

    It's a mobile web page, so open P5s in your browser and you'll see it. No app yet!
