leopardml2341 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) In the FAQ section, there's this pic: On my home screen (logged in) there are no home and activity tabs, also further down the FAQ section there's this image: Try as I might, I can't find anything like those whilst trying to customise my views and be certain I can see and use the new RMWeb to show me stuff like the old software did. Nowhere do I see my avatar, there seems to be no means of knowing if I'm logged in or not and there is no search bar line the one above. A pic of the home screen I see follows: Any ideas, suggestions or reasons. I'm logged in on an Android device. Thanks.

MarshLane is showing the desktop version, on Android the menus are in the 'three white bars' button top right. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dungrange Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I was going to suggest that you were not logged in and viewing as a guest, but that wouldn't have allowed you to post. A screenshot of what I see when viewing on a Windows 10 PC is shown below. Note that my user name appears in the top right corner and the rest is as per most of the instructions. However logging on to an Android tablet, I can get to a screen that looks like yours. If I click on the three horizontal bars, and then click on Activity, I get the same list of options as you've indicted above - eg unread content, my activity streams etc and I find that the next time I use the tablet, it returns to the same place - I normally leave it on unread content. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "three bars" icon is called the "hamburger". It is common on the web. It is meant to look like a menu, and means "everything else". Martin.

RMweb Gold Nickey Line Posted February 16, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 16, 2019 I have found that if you 'zoom' the website it switches to Android view, with no option to stay on the desktop version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dungrange Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I've got a 10" Tablet and I note that when I'm reading the site in landscape mode, I have the desktop version, but if I spin it through 90 degrees and hold it in portrait mode, I'm presented with the mobile version of the site. I guess that it must be something to do with the screen resolution, such that if the screen is less than a certain number of pixels wide, it switches from desktop to mobile. I'm therefore not surprised that zooming has the same effect. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm therefore not surprised that zooming has the same effect. Indeed, I get the same effect on a desktop by manually making the window narrower at the same resolution and zoom level. I think the best way to think of it is that there's a 'wide screen' and 'narrow screen' version of the site, and either can display on any device under the appropriate circumstances. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Market65 Posted February 26, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 26, 2019 Same result on my iPad. In landscape, it’s the desktop mode, but spinning it to portrait, it’s then mobile. I’m keeping it in landscape since I prefer the desktop mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
