Paradox Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 So far, I have used the forum on a desktop PC, a laptop and smartphone, using Internet Explorer, and Google Chrome as browsers.Both the mobile version and desktop version seem pretty user-friendly imo.How are you finding this platform in terms of a 'user experience'?

Piracy Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Laptop only so far. and both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digs Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Using it on my phone now. I've used it on both Chrome and Safari and it's good on both.I used it on desktop earlier and I do prefer that tbh but the mobile version is fine for posting. Might be harder to moderate(?) but not looked at that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fu_Manchu Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 On an Android tablet. Tbh, still finding my way. Not user friendly imo but that is because I have only ever used dotnet on a tablet. Haven't looked at any other forums since only having online access via a tablet. Know I will get used to it in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguinePar Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Only been using it for a few minutes, but have tried desktop and mobile, and so far I much prefer mobile.Too much white on the desktop version for my liking, and also a very wide text window, which means the eye has to read almost the full width of the screen and then dart right back to the other side.On mobile, the lines are considerably shorter and easier to read through comfortably (IMO, of course). Still a lot of white though.I think it's partly because the posts are in white boxes, on a white background - for me it makes it harder to differentiate them. Maybe if either the background or the post boxes had a tint to them? Even just something as light as the tint on the ident box next to each post?

Paradox Posted August 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 @SanguinePar, in my own experience, I tend to use forums much more on mobile than desktops anyway, but I take your point.Part of the ethos of this site is that EVERYONE can be included, and so we are trying to ensure that those amongst us who perhaps have some form of visual impairment can also enjoy the site.I'm not sure if what we have at the moment achieves that, but we would welcome input from anyone who might know.

SanguinePar Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'm no expert in web accessibility, but from what I've learned over the years, I'd suggest having larger text and a more visually obvious separation between one post and the next. And, as I say, reducing the size of the text boxes would help as well (although if text size was increased, this would slightly negate the issue I think) ^^^^ All meant constructively ^^^^ :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digs Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 My suggestion is bin safari and download chrome. It's loads faster and more reliable for iOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
