Guide to Using Xenforo 2.1

Following the April 2019 upgrade to Xenforo 2.1, this thread will explain many of the ins and outs of using the site. It is written from the standpoint that many members are already accustomed to Xenforo software and will focus on changes between the two systems. For a more thorough overview if...

Where do I find the setting for Full Website version on the smartphone?

Where do I find the setting for Full Website version on the smartphone?

Can you explain where you found this setting in the previous version of Xenforo? Both previous and current work on a "responsive design" that automatically rearranges elements to best suit your screen. Quite often the site will render differently in portrait compared to landscape (the latter being closer to a desktop version as there is more horizontal width).

You could try switching to the AFF Style (Classic)? This is explained in the new guide (I'll add it to the first post) and the button is in the bottom left.

I quite like it. Does seem a little lighter in font but workable. Shame about the loss of hugs and Agree buttons though.

Do other emoticons work? They didn’t before. Will try now. Nope, just the ones in the Like area.

One thing I note is that in portrait on my phone, I no longer see the page number links in What's New. Does show up in portrait though.

Classic style also contains a lot more viewable space than the new style.
Eg. Facebook and Twitter logos take up a whole row on the new format

But the classic view doesn't look like the view I was seeing/using last week before the upgrade.

Can you see how many total posts people have made?

@support not certain but the Full Website setting may have been at the bottom of the page.

I am using AFF Style (Classic).

Where did you get those emoticons from? I only see six in the Like area and none are those.

Why did my post above not show the ‘like’ option when all others did?

Can’t like your own post.

I just hit the smiley face icon top right.

Apologies for that. Should now be corrected.

Fixed with new message on adblocker screen (log in etc) Thanks!

I like that the little blue dot for going to latest message has gone (awkward on phones) - now just hit the thread title to go to latest.
