Use the code examples below:

Posting a Smiley - put the case sensitive name of the smiley between colons. Example:

Code:: :insert smiley name between 2 colons (e.g. "panic"):

Change text size:

Code:: [size=24]This text will be 24 pt[/size]

Make text bold:

Code:: [b]This text will be bold.[/b]

Italics:

Code:: [i]This text will be italicized.[/i]

Text color:

Code:: [color=red]Substitute "red" with your desired color. Numbers like #18453b (Spartan Green) work as well[/color]

Additional code explanations & examples can be found here.

Yeah, the out of the box mobile functionality is very weak (but it does actually work). There's supposedly an update coming out soon with additional features. I'm just offering band-aids until then.

Is there a trick to stop the ap store from opening up all the time? (iPad)

Not sure why that would happen since there is no app. Shouldn't an iPad "just work"? Mobile Tips & Tricks... 1494614055

BTW: I find the desktop version works just fine on a tablet & delivers more functionality. I only use the mobile version on my phone.

by MSUgöat Tue 22 Apr 2014 - 23:22

I'm using the desktop version on the iPad and occasionally the site shuts down and up pops the ap store trying to get me to download some stupid game. Stupid ipad.

This just happened to me on iPad when running the full site. Happened on multiple reloads. Had to switch back to mobile to get out of the cycle.

I've never checked on running AdBlock on an iPad. Is that an option?

Hey Zapp! Welcome to the Swill. Glad you found us. Hope you stick around.

This is a known issue that Heat Miser is trying to track down. Sorry for the hassle.

I'm not sure if there is an "AdBlock" option on the iPad, but I do know the Atomic Web Browser I use for the iPad does have ad-blocking capabilites built into the browser which is very nice.

There are no longer ads on this site once you're registered & signed in.

On my phone (ANDROID RULES!) I clicked the little "Classic View" mode. Now I can't get back to mobile view. HELP!

by **InTenSity** Thu 1 May 2014 - 9:36

Go to the bottom right hand corner and there is an option to go to mobile.

by LoneWolfSparty Thu 1 May 2014 - 9:45

Yes! Thanks!

by **Rocinante** Thu 1 May 2014 - 9:48

Also, it's in the thread titled "mobile tricks and tips"

Funny how that works.

Mobile recently has been sending new to random places in threads... Any idea why that might be?

Is there a way to skip to the last page of a multi-page thread?

by **The Pantry** Fri 9 May 2014 - 23:19

It was there initially. Went to full site mode for some reason a couple weeks ago and have been stuck with it ever since

by **InTenSity** Fri 9 May 2014 - 23:22

Scroll to the bottom right hand corner and click on mobile.

by **Heat Miser** Fri 9 May 2014 - 23:25

You read the mobile sticky.

by Sparty2QP Mon 12 May 2014 - 21:27

Also.. how about a way to get back to the topic index from a thread..

by **Heat Miser** Mon 12 May 2014 - 21:35

Back button - top left.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Wed 4 Jun 2014 - 0:27

Anyone know why I can't go to latest post/first unread post in mobile Chrome? Takes me to first post every time, regardless of whether I click the circle or the arrow on the right (mobile view).

by **The Pantry** Wed 4 Jun 2014 - 7:54

Pretty sure the only way you can do it is in full site mode
