Unfortunately searching for items in Lotus Notes used to be horrible but it might be better now it has a relational database driving it.

Every forum I go on and there are quite a few, it takes me ages to find my way around.  I like simple and straightforward.  If it's too complicated I go look for the same info elsewhere.

One feature I particularly do like is the text being saved as I type, many a time I have lost entire posts which have taken me ages to construct.  Sometimes I just can't raise the energy or enthusiasm to type it all in again.  Now if I have a long post, I save it to my notepad first, before uploading it, I did that with the Wales thread.  Only recently I made a post which was a technical question, I can't remember the details but I think the browser crashed, I was delighted to discover when I re-started the computer that my post was almost entirely still there, minus a couple of words.  I wasn't aware of the autosave, it just happened in the background.

I think that you have hit upon a situation that is not uncommon.  All applications can crash, but they should also have an autosave mechanism.

If I can make a suggestion - switch the default board theme to ndslr - everyone already a member would be unaffected as the current theme they are using is stored on the db - but new members and guests  (including Google) would see the mobile friendly version.

I will give the Ndslr theme a test run.
I will change my preferences to this once I have posted here.

For me on my iPad I find Ndslr is confusing and visually unappealing.  Sorry.

The columns do not currently align so present a jagged feel.

Buttons are half in/out of frame.
I cant post a picture as it says screen shot is too large.

Strange that seems to work now.

The cursor seems to go awol after an image upload. I wanted to add a comment in the last posting but it wouldnt allow me to do it as the cursor was invisible.
