I also continue to be unhappy with the bottom advert in particular and to steer us to the ‘1 day latest’ approach seems to be an admission that functionality is affected.
On my Mac the impact is lessened. It’s on the iPad, which is what I use 90% of the time for FPL/FISO, that it’s most off putting.
My wording is a bit stronger than the last couple of entries where I was seeking to help you resolve this, largely in response to the ‘worth the inconvenience to members who are put off using the forum’ post. Having to click the x on adverts to be able to use the functionality of an otherwise great site is too much for me. I know that my usage has tailed off and imagine an analysis of my contact time with FISO will bear this out
I thought you confirmed the bottom banner didn't keep covering content or links when you scrolled? When I tested using an iPad mini on Safari the banner moved to long past the bottom of the forum pages. Have you tried Portrait rather than Landscape view and does that help?
The comment about the 1 Day Latest link was just to add another such link as many use that as their main way to see new activity but if you use another way to browse and the banners are getting in the way despite scrolling please let me know.
No, the bottom banner doesn’t disappear when scrolling. In any case, I don’t know about others but I start my FISO session by scrolling up not down
I appreciate your rationale for wanting to increase revenue, but again, having to change orientation of my iPad just for FISO? Really? Very practically, I have large hands and eyes that these days like the larger font size and for both reasons prefer landscape
I don’t want to be one of those moany types, it’s a great site that I benefit from - and from time to time add value to. I’m usually happy being part of the silent majority on changes and tweaks that you make. On this occasion, my experience is that this change is in conflict with its usability and functionality which is why I’m putting my head above the parapet.
Spiny, is that one click for every new page you click through or on to though, not just at the start of a session?
