edited December 2016 in How to use Club Together #1

Since the new CC Website was launched on 13 December 2016, I appear to have full access to all sections of Club Together using my Windows 7 Laptop. When trying to gain access to CT using my Iphone, it appears not to be compatible i.e. I'm unable to move around the Discussions & Topics or even back-space to the previous page. Is it me that is missing something with how to navigate around CT by Iphone or are others experiencing the same problem? I'm pulling my hair out! would be most grateful for any feedback on this please. Had no problems before the site was upgraded.

Many thanks in advance

Colin

    snowy, there is a 'mobile' version of the website which has horizontal navigation of each section...

    once you see the discussions page, you can slide each section right to left to reveal the tipics in that section, and therefore, the last post in each section.

    im afraid it is utterly non user friendly, and i only came across this info from another post on CT.....i, too, was struggling on my iphone.

    sometimes, it seems to work differently if ypu hold the phone landscape rather than portrait...

    not really fit for pupose im afraid.....

    I see we have all lost our Rank with the new website i.e. no stars!

    Yes, it works, but still unable to back-space to previous page without going around China to get there if you know what I mean. As you say, it's not very user friendly at the moment, maybe in time? once again, many thanks BoleroBoy.

    It's the same on Android phones too, after a while you speed up a bit but it's a retrograde step.

    If you were a new user and didn't already know your way around you certainly wouldn't bother on an iPhone.

    Strangely, it behaves 'normally' on an iPad

    Snowy, if I down swipe slightly on my iphone it brings up the back navigation arrow at the bottom of the page. Once touched this takes me straight back to the previous page.

    Agree though, the sideways scrolling is horrible, and so far it has not grown on me.

    Hi SteveL

    I have tried back-paging in the above manner and the said navigation arrow & other functions on the bar are not present, they were before the site was revamped. The bottom function bar is present and still functions correctly on all other sites bar the CC. It's strange to say the least!
