This is a limitation in the current software as it seems to register each image upload only once it has completed, but something I can suggest to the developers of the forum software as a future improvement.ghaznavid wrote: When using the "insert all" button for photos - would it be possible to make the photos come through in order
they appear below, as opposed to the order of being uploaded? Mine are all numbered, so when I upload them, they appear in the correct order in
the attachments box below, but then when I use "insert all", I have to re-order them into the correct order.
I read up about this and this is actually an iPad/iPhone issue where the tooltip is interpreted differently. The issue comes up on other websites too. I have solved the issue by disabling the tooltip. Apologies to those who found the tooltip useful but until the creators of various browsers can get more streamlined on this issue, its the best compromise to keep this site working for everyone. Please test and confirm that this is solved for you.swordfish wrote: Is it possible to make all the links one click only as before when browsing via iPhone?Since the upgrade, I have to click twice on each link. One click just give you the info, the second clicks opens the link. From Windows, hovering over with the mouse gives you the info and a click opens the link.
I suspect this is because the links have not been enclosed in the BB Code needed for url links in the PM text. Unfortunately you still have to enclose a link like this in a PM:swordfish wrote: Also, when I view hyperlinks in PM, they are not clickable. Tested from Windows and from iPhone.

I get why it opens to the last unread post if you are logged in and have unread posts on that thread - but it also annoys me that it doesn't default to the last page in all other scenarios. I don't always log in, especially on my phone (where I avoid saving passwords).

I suspect this was mostly aimed at the Latest Posts list on the home page? I have now made it so that it always opens to the last post on the thread, even if you aren't logged in. Note that if you are not logged in, it may skip over unread posts this way.elinda wrote: When clicking on a topic, is it possible to navigate directly to the last page immediately instead of it automatically opening up on the first page?

If you are on the Recent Topics page within the forum section - you can click on the "Last Post" link to the right of the topic which takes you to the end of the thread. Alternatively you can click on the page number blocks under the title - by clicking you on the last number, you will land on the last page of the thread.
I have also made it possible now to reorder the posts in a thread from newest posts to oldest posts (by default it goes from oldest to newest). To change the order, edit your profile, go to Forum Settings and set your preference there.
Does this address everyone's concerns?
I think I found the problem and managed to fix it - can you confirm?swordfish wrote: There is another issue I noticed. If I go to any gallery picture from an iPhone, it opens blank. The thumbnails

Yes, I can confirm, it's working. Thank you.
However, another issue I noticed is if you try to download any GPX files from the Download section from the phone, the file shows as "file_name.gpx.xml" instead of just "file_name.gpx".

From the behaviour I've seen on iPad and iPhone in testing this, I think may have to do with not having a suitable app on your phone that can properly read a GPX file (for example OsmAnd) - can you confirm that this is the case? Since a GPX file is just XML anyway, your phone will pick this up, and if it doesn't have an app which has laid claim to open GPX files by default, it may be adding the .xml extension as a security precaution and so that at least you can open the file with your browser (in which case it shows the actual XML).swordfish wrote: However, another issue I noticed is if you try to download any GPX files from the Download section from the phone, the file shows as "file_name.gpx.xml" instead of just "file_name.gpx".
