Weird thing on mobile?

Not sure what's going on, but the webpage occasionally gets really wide, almost as if someone coded something wonky, but I don't think there's actually any coding in any posts on the pages. 


Honestly just looking to see if anyone else on mobile gets similar results on mobile, or if it's just my phone being weird. 


(Note, this is me zoomed all the way out on the screen to demonstrate how wide the page gets. Not life or death, but kinda annoying. I'll add more if it happens on any other pages.)
 
Yo, so I was having this same problem too until I realized that it was related to mobile interactions with user made html or css code. Since people generally don't put in the code to automatically format their designs for mobile, the browser will zoom out to adjust for whatever page the user created. If this happens randomly, even when there is no customized code on the webpage, then that is definitely an issue with the site.


Edit: Oh yeah with those cases. The site is being really wonky. Weird.

As mentioned already, this can occur when a member has created HTML/CSS not intended for mobile phones.  However, upon looking at the links you have provided I cannot visibly see any coding really taking place.  I have tested your links in my own phone and had no similar issues.


It could be an issue with the Night Life Theme itself as there have been other reported issues dealing with that specific theme.  Please try the Default Theme on your phone and see if the problem persists.
 
If I may ask, what browser does your phone use?  Mine uses Chrome and presented no issues.


-is not a professional with this stuff, but can try to help troubleshoot a bit-

I'm using chrome as well. 


This also happens when I try the links on my tablet which is running fully updated Chrome.

It could be your specific phone.  It's a reach in assuming that though, but not sure what else could be the cause.  Does this happen in landscape as well?
 
@Fyuri as stated, I have the same effect when using my tablet. 


Also, landscape only fixed the first one, the second two are still widening out. 
 
The issue is that they either quoted something that already went off the original post width or copy and pasted something. There's a known "bug" where if you copy something from let's say your private workshop and paste it into a public thread, it'll copy the html present in the post, even if you didn't mean it or think that such a thing would happen. Only way to fix this really is to highlight your text and click "remove format" (the Tx button thing)...or go into the html and edit out the thing that's causing the post to go past the original post width, but it's easier to just remove format tbh. >×>


Edit: Derp. This only seems to apply to the first link. I have no clue what's going on in the second and third links, as they seem to also be affecting the bottom of the page when you try to switch themes

Yeah, issues with the site's appearance on mobile are common for whatever reason.  It could be a variety of factors and all I can say at this point to you @punkinblackk is we can wait for the RPN app the be released. :\
 
It's alright. Since it seems to be just me, I'm going to chalk it up to my bad luck and deal. 


I mean, I only tend to notice if I try going into the menu to switch back to home view.

Nope, it's not just you. I used Chrome for a while, and as a heavy mobile-user, I can say that this bug happened to me multiple times.

Any sort of estimation as for when the app is going to be released? I know that the owner is waiting to buy a Mac and it's no rush at all. I'm just curious if any staff members or anyone has an estimation.

We have no estimation.  Apps will be released in the Apple Store and Google play once all versions are ready.

I know they will be released when all versions are ready, which is why I said that I know the owner is waiting to buy a Mac. But thank you for your quick answer.

If the January donation goal finishes early, I know I least would be willing to donate to get an app faster. :)

I don't know if I'd be willing to accept money from the site towards the device, some staff members are pitching it but even then its taking a while. I'm buying it on Amazon since its a bit cheaper there then direcctly from Apple since Amazon is an authorized retailer for them, so I guess I could allow people to send me amazon egift cards.


Heres what I've been saving up for.

Found out what's wrong. It's actually two seperate issues.


The first link was someone quoting something with a fixed width here - fine on wider screens, but not on mobile.


The second and third links are both related to Grammarly. Someone quotes someone else using Grammarly (here and here, quoting the same person) and the program puts in a div that extends beyond the page, for some reason.

Being an issue related to a third-party program, I don't think the staff can really do anything about it, other than maybe editing the posts and deleting the divs manually.
