If this has been reported already, apologies.

When viewing the site, signed in on an iPhone, I always hit the ‘new posts’ button. At the top there are two viewing options, condensed or expanded. I always chose condensed so as to be able to see as many topics as possible. However, since the new year, clicking condensed or expanded only shows the expanded view.

A quick google gave me the following info from another forum, running similar software the PW maybe? Any chance an admin can have a quick look and hopefully sort?  cheers!

 

‘Every version of IPB got the same bug, the developers when they created the site set the cookies to expire in 2020. Nailed it. I've set it to expire in 3020 so we should be good.‘

How do we change that please hod?

 

Going to try and find a setting but would welcome some help if I can't.

You cannot set cookies on the device browser side, its set by a short piece of script on the server where the website/software is hosted, this cookie is then downloaded to your devices browser.

From what I remember about dates is…if the expiry date is in the past the server will just class it as a session cookie and remove it when the browser session ends.

Don’t know how PW website is setup but I don’t think changing the date will make much difference, I am sure admin will be along to give you some help.
