Mobile view and post reply

I find it kind of difficult to see what im tying on mobile too.

What are your device specs? The mobile editor works well on my phone, and it is supposed to be full screen, not half.

[a_5mith]

One of the iPhones, maybe the 6? Using tablet bootstrap due to the PPI and not the phone one?

[Scuzz]

@julian It's half screen on my phone to. HTC One, Android 4.4.3, Chrome.

In my dell venue 8 tablet running android 4.4.4 its full screen but my lg optimus running android 4.2 its half screen and am using chrome in both.

Ouch theres absolutely no space ...well except a few pixels at the top. Thats precious space right there. So on mobile the composer has to be fixed, with a top, bottom, left, right @ 0px. Fill the whole screen, and you'd prob. get more space from doing that. Yeah, it might cover up the header or what not, but better that than not being able to compose completely. I can't think of any other method unless someone has something else?

Make sure you've updated to the latest Vanilla theme too. Unless you're saying it happens on this site too? Otherwise, I have no problems using it on my phone here as it takes up the whole screen.

I had this problem too and put this in the custom css. It's kind of hacky but the users in my forum like it better this way:

@media (max-height: 500px) { 
    .composer {
        position: static;
        min-height:9em;
        padding-top:1em;
    }
    .composer .write-preview-container {
        min-height: 5em;
    }
    body {
        margin-bottom:0!important;
    }
}

Ok thank you guys. Anyway @EisFrei I'll try that one hoping that can fix the issue.

Static? Interesting.

@trevor it basically removes the overlay-behaviour of the composer if your screen is very small. It keeps the textarea's height at a usable value (squished down to 2-3px isn't very useful) and you can look at the other posts to check something, too

Version mobile there are bug.
The most important is

1. And I can't view the writing area of reply post.

All device have this bug.
The keyboard cover writing area.

I've given my Galaxy S4 to the other half, so can't confirm nor deny any issues. But seems like some form of regression perhaps. As this was fixed quite nicely a month or two back.

[julian]

This is happening here? I'm not running into any issues, although I have a Nexus 5

[Scuzz]

No, it seems to be fine here. Posting from my phone now.

[esiao]

@julian I have the same problem on my N4 but on master branch.

If it's fine on your phone, here, then I am inclined to believe your custom theme needs merging from the upstream repo?

[Scuzz]

@julian That was my thoughts, pinging @Tanner ?

[Tanner]

@Scuzz What theme of mine are you using?

[Scuzz]

@Tanner The classic one.

Also @Tanner, is there an issue with your theme displaying widgets to users that are not logged in?
