No desktop version?

[seaboy4hire]

It seems that there is no desktop version of the site if I am on my mobile. I've looked all over to see if I can switch to a desktop version and can't find it here. Help?

We don't actually have any control over that. The software gives what it gives.

If you're using an iPhone and Safari you can hold down on the reload circle in the url window and you'll get a pop-up menu that show's "Load Desktop Version."

When on my iPad the site looks more or less like the desktop version. When I'm on my iPhone it is probably giving me the same boo hiss version that @seaboy4hire is getting on his android. Just an observation.

I just tried doing that. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I can't get it to work. I'm running iOS 8 and using Safari.

The new forum software follows the industry trend of being "responsive." I.e., it automatically detects what kind of device you are using and adjusts its display format accordingly. Such software typically no longer offers the old switch for toggling manually between display modes.

I've just started using a smartphone and I'm happy with the format that the software defaults to on it. Sure it doesn't give you the same funtionality [different, not better or worse] but it adjusts the display to work on the smaller screen. (As an aside, I only have the new phone b/c my phone company called me and said they were upgrading their capability in my area and my old device wouldn't work properly, and they gave me a new basic Samsung phone, no changes, no questions.)

It works in iOS 9.3. I'm using an iPhone 6 with 9.3.

 

I believe you really should upgrade Apple iOS devices as the company releases updates simply for the enhanced security and bug fixes if nothing else.
