I work for an engineering firm with multiple offices scattered over states ranging from Connecticut to southern California. The home office is in Philadelphia, and all payroll functions are carried out at the home office. We fill out and submit time sheets on-line. The application is one that a number of engineering firms use -- and it only runs with Internet Exploder. In fact, I just tried it with Edge to see what would happen. Answer -- nothing. It wouldn't run. And I had previously tried it with Firefox, so I know that's a failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean all the other forums still look like antiques formats but I find this one easy to use. Hell of a lot easier than any of the social media out there actually. Different strokes for different folks. I find this forum package to be extremely un-user friendly. I really and truly loathe and detest the WYSIWYG editing window. It makes it super difficult to quote a previous message that needs individual responses to individual parts or paragraphs. I was much happier with the old Simple Machines software.

mjeff87 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Small problem. Anyone else here use an iPad to login here? The site won't let me respond to any posts with mine now. I can hit the reply link just fine, but there's no text box available for me to type into. The same thing happened with the last site upgrade trying to use IE to post. That's not a problem for me anymore, I just quit using IE completely (like most everyone else). Works fine with Chrome, but I only have Safari installed on my apple device. Must be a browser compatibility issue, I guess (???) I use my iPad at home 99% of the time. Or, well....I used to anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minuit Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I haven't had any issues with the mobile site (an older version of Firefox on Android from before they made it garbage, but that's another matter entirely) except for the CC logo being cut off. I haven't been doing much other than browsing, but that seems OK. Also a bug that would take me to the "adventure planning" forum when I wanted to go to the classifieds is fixed, so that's cool. However, the desktop site is really pushing one of my buttons here. Is there a way to get rid of this mostly useless window that takes up a big chunk of the horizontal space on the entire page of my thread? Only appears on a thread I have created, not others. Also, as a compulsive post editor, I really don't like the "edit" button being buried under a menu rather than next to the "quote" button. Is there a way to change this, at least on my end?
