Title: Acceessing Trad Gang via mobile computer devices
Post by: Rob DiStefano on July 26, 2015, 05:46:00 PM
Because they are not "real computers", there are known issues with mobile devices such as smart phones, tablets, i-pads and other such machines.  Mostly it's a browser problem, but it could also be an operating system issue.  Not a new problem, one that's been happening for years.

This is not just about Trad Gang either, because other forums and websites can, and are, having mobile device access issues.

SO ... if you are having access issues logging into Trad Gang (or other forums and websites) using a mobile device, but no problem with a real computer access, contact the mobile device manufacturer for possible assistance.

This "problem" is derived from mobile devices programmed to look for "mobile sites" by default. Wich Trad Gang is not. That having been said the site is certianly small enough to where people can opt to view the full site on their device...most devices produced within the last probably 4 years support this. Hope that helps...

i don't follow what yer saying.  when you punch in  www.tradgang.com (http://www.tradgang.com,) , the browser should be smart enuf to bring up that url, which it does and is not the problem most members are having - which is, not being recognized as a member (can't login) on their mobile device (via its browser), but have no issues gaining access via a real computer? that's a real problem.

OK that sounds more like a scripting issue in the browser they are using...ok i just tried to log in from my phone with 3 different browsers Chrome-no problem Opera-no problem Web Browser & Explorer had a privacy issue. second try i was able to log in.

without a doubt, some of the mobile browser and login issues are just educational on the user's part.
