Hi.
I'm browsing the forums right now using my smartphone and, other than the interface being quite different, there's a big issue for me.
Whenever I try to pick 'recent topics' filter, it accidentally goes to the 'pie' option. Not being able to watch recent topics is a big pain, effectively preventing me from using the smartphone in permies.

Any chance for a fix?

Well, it actually says that 'recent topics' is a only pie feature, which is not the case in the desktop version.

You fix it by just buying PIE.

Instead of finally turning it off, we found a way to keep it.  That is to make it a PIE feature.

Can you check this to be sure?  Maybe a screen shot?

I think what Abraham is talking about is that the desktop homepage is https://permies.com/forums. This is a lot like the Recent Topics (https://permies.com/forums/recentTopics/list). The forums homepage (https://permies.com/forums) does not require any PIE.

BUT, on mobile view, there's no https://permies.com/forums view. There's just a list of the different forum categories. So, if you want to see the most recent topics/threads unless you have pie.

I'm thinking that we're working on getting a free forum view for the mobile version. But, that will likely take a lot of time and development to get made.

Thanks, Nicole. It's exactly as you say.

It's a pity, since the mobile version is useless for me in this case. That means that I have to wait for being at home for checking new posts.

I did not know it was an expensive fix.

Yes, this is exactly my experience on mobile. It definitely impacts how much I can engage with the forums, because I tends to browse when I have bits of downtime in the day.
 
permaculture is a more symbiotic relationship with nature so I can be even lazier. Read tiny ad:
