Another thing I noticed in the Recent Posts area is that thread titles remain bold even after being read.

Mobile friendly browsing
Finally you can browse GBAtemp on your mobile devices... without Tapatalk! Our new skin is fully responsive, just try it, it looks fantastic! All site features are supported, including the dark theme.

Nice! Thanks for that.

Guys, we need Tapatalk back, for some phones, the Mobile versión sucks.

I don't understand why users don't like that top-right permanent menu. It was there on IPB too and nobody complained. I missed it when we switched to xenforo.
It's not very obstructive (maybe we could make it more transparent when scrolling the page, and make it opaque with mouse over, like it used to be on IPB)
It's very useful to access alerts without scrolling the page to the top and losing what you were reading

I guess making it more transparent when scrolling will please more users.

Ok , changing zoom to 125% or 150% makes this site look a little better . It will stretch the screen so at least the home page fills the screen.

Can't you make a button that hides it? Like the one on Reddit.

Cyan · May 31, 2015

it's probably possible to make an option to stay on top or stay visible.
it's a matter of css.

you can edit it (if your browser allow user-edited css to bypass website's css)
look for the .navTabs .visitorTabs {
make it absolute -78 -22 instead of fixed 0 0

I think the two options for the bar should be:
1) It stays as is. It follows you down the page.
2) It is locked into the corner.

As it stands, at this moment, that bar seems to be the only way to access private messages and alerts easily without using bookmarked links, so it would be rather inconvenient for quite a few people if they opted for the turn off option only to find that they need it on anyways.

All I really would like to see out of the bar are the new symbols, which are a work in progress and we'll hopefully have in the next couple of days, as well as the bar being more dark theme colored for the dark theme. As it stands, the whitish grey doesn't look very good against the rest of the dark theme, and I'm assuming that could be easily fixed by just finding the right color to use for it, unless the bar can't be edited per theme, which I don't think would be an issue.

The dark theme no longer (as of a few minutes ago) has text on the top bar's menus.

Costello · May 31, 2015

by setting these two CSS attributes, the bar appears at the top right corner of the page and doesn't scroll down with you:
position: absolute;
top: -80px;

so i guess it's an easy fix, it could either be a profile option, or part of a "userstyle" (I think some people use them around here)

yodamerlin · May 31, 2015

The information on the side of posts has become a little messed up as well.

Try doing a hard refresh to clear your cache. I'm on dark theme and everything is still operating at 100%. Ctrl+F5 for an easy hard refresh.

Cyan · May 31, 2015

if you notice sudden changes in design, it's maybe because it's currently being edited, it will be fixed in few minutes.

Because it doesn't match either theme what so ever and it just feels out of place compared to the rest of the page. That's my humble opinion.

Profile option added

Cyan · May 31, 2015

I agree with the design/color/icons and it's being discussed in another thread.
I thought most people didn't like that it stayed visible on screen, while it's very useful for easy access.

Gruntzer · May 31, 2015

it will need sometime to get used to it

i really did like the old theme

Anfroid · May 31, 2015

Any way to disable the mobile site on Android, already tried changing the user agent. Or even better customising the mobile portal differently from the desktop portal.
