Is it possible to update the mobile forum view to update the image size from posts to the viewport width? Something like this:

img {
 max-width: 100vw;
}


Thanks, that seams to have worked

Just noticed the selection of special characters. Thanks! ✓
⏚ is nifty, no more typing "Ground" over and over.

Just recently I have been noticing this when viewing the forum on my iphone:



It only happens for my posts. I don't know if it is due to ME looking at MY posts or whether my posts are doing it for everyone. It doesn't happen for the PC.

I was going to test it by logging off on my iphone and then checking whether it happens if the forum didn't know it was me looking. Trouble is I can't log off on the iphone either that facility seems to have disappeared!

Best wishes,

Thanks Tom, I was beginning to think it was just me.

I reported this error to Gizmo one week ago. There's something wrong with the PHP for mobile.
I'm waiting for access to the source code; maybe we can convert the two source codes (desktop and mobile) into only one and use CSS and @media to transform the page to the correct form factor.

That problem I reported above has gone away. If you have done something Leo, you have done well  

The phone screen also seems a little easier to set up. Before when I tried to enlarge it a bit, it would jump around and I could rarely get it how I want. That seems to have improved.

I can still not find any way to log off though.

It was not me. Kudos to our site administrator/maintainer

How do we report a BOT or fake user? There is one in the Electronics forum, I could not see an option.

Full disclosure - I haven't been to Specsavers yet.

Is there a safe way to see if the links in those posts install spyware or harmful content?

Links appears valid, company exists in various publications. Stupid BOT attempt to advertise IMHO.
