Hi there,
I am the website admin for the MND Association, and we recently upgraded our forum from 4.2 to the latest cloud version. The forum is located at https://forum.mndassociation.org
Since we put it live a couple of weeks ago, we've had several people who have motor neurone disease comment and say they're having difficulties with the upgrade. I wondered if anyone is able to suggest any fixes on how we can resolve these issues?
1. Live Activity Stream
This seems to be a feature that is missed by most users. I've tried suggesting using Today's Posts and Latest Activity as an alternative, but they claim it doesn't have the functionality the old activity stream had. I never used it myself, so is there something I'm missing?
2. Now and Next buttons
It's been mentioned that the arrow buttons to go to previous/next pages are really small and difficult to use for people who use eyegaze software. Is there a way to make them larger or replace with the words Previous/Next?
3. iPad and Internet Explorer logging in issues
A few members have messaged to say that they are struggling to log in to the forum using an iPad. I've tried on two different models. On an iPad mini with iOS 9.3.5 it doesn't work, all I get is 'Logging in' and doesn't go any further. However using a larger iPad which has iOS 13.1.3 on it and it works fine no problem.
I've also found on Internet Explorer it won't log in either. Is there a way of resolving this?
4. Pagination
I've looked through all the settings, and can't find a way of being able to display all the pages within a topic from the channel list or within the topic itself. Some members are finding it hard to navigate through multiple pages, possible because of arrow buttons like above. Is there a way to change this.
Any help you're able to provide, would be much appreciated!
Simon.
