Mobile Updates

The New Posts page is the heart of many users' visitation pattern. They go back and forth between New Posts and individual threads.  You'll now find permanent navigation to the New Posts page inside the mobile sidebar . Look for the radio tower icon next to "Forums." Tapping this will take you to the sitewide New Posts page. Tapping anywhere else in the "Forums" bar will take you to the forum index.

Many page types are not yet supported on Mobile (reviews, for example). If you happen to follow a link to one of these pages while on a mobile device, you'll see the Desktop version of the site with an alert: " There is no Mobile version of this page yet ." We doubled the size of this alert so that it could be more easily seen on small screens. Note that it may appear cartoonishly large if, for some reason, you see it in a desktop browser, but that is not a bug :)

A minor UI update: the flag, delete, edit, and thumb-up buttons underneath Mobile posts now display an integrated "spinner" graphic while they're working to let the user know that their tap was received and their request is in progress. This is especially important with Mobile connections, where an action could complete speedily or butt slow.

Search

We found that even when searching for an exact product or article title that it was pretty difficult to find the product/article on the first page of results. We've made some relevance changes which will help articles and products make it to page 1 when users are searching for them. We've also improved the ranking order of the dedicated "products" tab of search results.

Fixes

#7640: Erratic line spacing when using the "remove nested quotes" option has been rectified.

#11960: Product page images now correctly open in a lightbox view instead of loading the source file in same window.

#11955: Old deleted posts were sometimes still visible on Mobile. This has been corrected.

#12022: The staff roll call page was showing some unexpected behavior, such as displaying very high-level users in rather low-level groups. A member's group associations are now correctly sorted by priority before deciding which group to list a member in. Groups shown on the page are also now sorted by priority. Please report any further issues you see on this page now. The issue is likely due to the priority rank data on your site, and may require a custom data fix.

#11798: When a user invokes the image uploader from an album category, that category will correctly be preselected for them in the uploader

#11889: Some browsers don't support CSS gradients but we configure fallback solid colors for these. We missed a couple of mobile sites but we've covered them now. This would have made the Mobile header look funny in IE9, for example.

#11905: Some users profiles were pointing to the avatar albums of other users. This was data-related and affected a small subset of users over a short period.

      Bryson got hit with a 2 shot penalty, after the round, for improving his lie on hole 5.  Here is a post on X, showing how he stepped on high grass when he was looking down his target line.  When they cut to the side shot, you can see how close he was behind the ball.  I think the R&A probably made the correct decision. You just have to be really careful when you are walking in the high grass, around the ball and where you are to make a swing.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 27 (17 July 26) - Normally an 18 hole day, but due to commitments abbreviated the round to 9 holes (played the back nine at home course).  Had a solid session where even the worst miss (tee shot off 18) was fully playable.  Shot a solid 39 (6pars, 3bogies) - not dbls, no three putts - just boring golf.

      "Force Precedes Motion" and Flawed Physics in a TPI Video

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Overall, well said. People have to be very careful in trying to describe very complex problem in simple terms. In this case, it is a clear fundamental misunderstanding of Newton's 1st and 3rd laws.  To clarify more on the misinterpretation of Newton's 1st law. The exact interpretation of Newton's 1st Law....  "Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it" yea, a body will stay motionless unless a force acts upon it. An object will stay on its path of motion unless a force acts upon it.  I get it, complex physics problems are difficult. There is a lot of simplification done in most physics class when it is taught. A classic problem uses a frictionless surface. Projectile motion excludes drag and wind direction. Collisions are usually elastic. The golf swing is not a simple physics problem.  Yea, I think they got caught up the data on the graphs and are not truly understanding cause and effect.  If the golfer isn't first pushing into the ground, then the ground isn't going to push back.  The internal forces of the body create the motion, not the external forces from the ground. The ground isn't like what Psy uses to start his concert. 🤣 You probably need to be connected to the ground and have those GRF to help the body produce the motion you want. Your body has to move in the right way to produce the GRF which helps you move the body in the way you want. Body motion precedes the GRF.
