RE: Yellow Swordfish

I’ll have a look into this. Can I assume then that the Default SP theme isn’t responsive by design?

Also, while the photo uploads from a mobile device aren’t distorting the published photo anymore, is there a way to resize the photo in a pre-published post?

Correct. The old Default theme is not responsive. Gosh there was hardly a smartphone when that theme was created 🙂 So not so much by design; – more that it pre-dates things!

We do not offer image manipulation software – seems out of the scope of a forum – but these images are stored on you server so you have access to them if you wish to massage them in any way.

Excellent! Another question if you don’t mind and thanks for the support on this.

Of the two mobile SP themes, Reboot and Unified, which is the most ideal for mobile users, or are they both about equal?

The description for the Unified theme states that it has a special emphasis on mobile usage but you indicated that this here support forum uses Reboot. I figured I’d at least ask before I decide which to purchase.

It really is very subjective of course but I would say reboot is the newer and the more popular download of the two…

I’ve added Reboot, which really improves the mobile UI; I love it.

I discovered a bug – my Add Reply and Add Topic buttons on desktop are non-responsive. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Also, I noticed that forum rank badges on mobile are only displayed for admins. I have them setup for all users on the forum and they show up on desktop just fine. Do I need to make some kind of adjustment for them to show up on mobile?
