Demonland

Sorry about that but short of finding a few trillion dollars between the couch cushions and buying Apple and changing their policy of forcing people to buy new devices because they no longer support them there is not really anything I can do. A friend of mine can no longer watch anything on Netflix because of the age of his iPad.

This might be more to your liking. https://magpies.net/

Please try posting from a different device to see if you are able to post. See if there is a software update available (Settings > General > Software Updates). If you can could you let me know which iOS software version you are running (Settings > General > About > iOS Version. I've reviewed the software manufacturer's forums for any similar issues, and it appears that most reported problems involve older devices or devices that haven't received recent software updates. Personally, I've successfully posted using an iPad that's a couple of years old without any issues. I'll also test tonight using my children's iPads, which are even older (but not ancient and most likely up to date with their software), to further investigate the matter.

Before I assist you here. What the hell is going on with that font? This you can definitely blame on @Nasher . Not the font but the missing podcast files. He rightly removed them from the backup before we did the upgrade last night but forgot to put them back. Sabotage? Try it now and let me know.

Several users have reported issues when trying to post from their iPads. However, I haven't yet received specific details regarding the age of their iPads or whether they are running the latest software updates. Older iPads often stop receiving software updates from Apple, which classifies them as 'end of life.' Consequently, these older devices and outdated software versions may encounter compatibility problems not only with this site but also with other websites and applications. Unfortunately, resolving these compatibility issues is beyond my control.

Unfortunately this is not possible but thank you anyway.

I would say it is 100% related to it being an old ipad. Particularly if the ipad no longer receives regular updates if at all. I have no idea what the minimum update requirement would be as this is just a hunch on my part that that is what is the issue.

The majority of the changes are cosmetic and under the hood improvements. Basic functionality including the profanity filter remain. Please don't test it or try to circumvent it. The functionality of banning has not changed. If anything the frustration with the upgrade issues and losing sleep last night getting the look and feel of the site ready for today has made me even grumpier. Don't test the limits of this mod.

Certain words in and of themselves might not seem offensive. But when you call someone an [censored] they certainly get offended and that is what we are avoiding. Can't we all just [censored] get along.

@Flemo56 It worked fine when I tried it on my colleague's iPad. If it's not working for you, the reason might be because your iPad or its internet browser (usually Safari) is older or hasn't been updated in a long time. Websites often use newer technology that older devices or browsers can't properly understand. Try checking if your iPad has any software updates available, and install them if it does. After updating, check again to see if the website works.

Test from an iPad

I will have to check my ipad when I get home. Haven't done any testing on that device. Assume you are logged in on the iPad? I won't make the obvious joke based on the image about turning the iPad right side up.

That's the way the new software handles the logos. I guess screen realestate is a premium. Most of the tutorials about the software had small logos rather than big banners. It doesn't phase me.

No but I lost about 3 extra hours of sleep last night getting the site ready.

As far as I can tell there is only the light and dark themes. Theoretically the light theme could be made neutral but to be honest for me the "branding" aspect is more important to me than you getting away with not working while you're at your job. 😜

It's on the to do list. The old chat room was a third party app that was always going to be nuked in the upgrade as the coding has slighty changed and there would be incompatibilities. I have to wait for a viable solution. There may already be one available I just have had other aspects of the site that I needed to get working for launch.

Are you using a PC? How compact is your browsing window?

Check the bottom of the page. There is a moon icon for dark theme and a light bulb icon for the light theme. The default is the light theme because I didn't want to scare anyone.

The bolded or unbolded topic titles depending on whether you’ve read the thread is still a feature. You have to be logged in though which is the same as in the past. On the homepage there is a slight delay but it’s only a few minutes.

Right at the bottom of the page there is a moon icon. Click that.

Threads is Facebook/Instagram/Meta’s version of Twitter. I don’t really use it anymore so that link may disappear at some point.

Add ons like that are usually 3rd party installations which were ask removed in the upgrade which I knew was going to happen. I remember reading somewhere in the software manufacturers forum that widgets (that’s what they’re called) like that are very resource heavy pulling data and can slow the site down.

To report or edit a post, simply click the three dots located to the right of the poster’s name. Previously, the Report and Edit "buttons" were positioned beneath the post itself. That layout was moved to the three dots a long time ago in a previous update but I was able to reinstate it to below the post using a third-party tweak to the website code. Unfortunately, when we upgraded to the new platform, those custom tweaks—along with a few others I had made over the years—were removed, as expected. I’ll look into reinstating them if possible, but for now, you’ll need to get used to the new location of these functions. If you notice anything else that seems missing, has moved, or if you're having trouble finding a feature you previously used, feel free to post in this thread. I’ll either investigate or point you in the right direction.

Welcome to the New-Look Demonland! You may have noticed that Demonland has undergone a bit of a makeover. We’ve freshened things up with a new look and feel, but rest assured — the heart and soul of the site remain the same. This thread is your go-to place for reporting any bugs, glitches, or issues you encounter while navigating the updated site. Please let us know if something isn’t working as it should so we can sort it out as quickly as possible. Just a quick note: difficulty adjusting to change isn’t a bug — we get it, new things can feel a bit strange at first. Give it a little time, and we’re confident you’ll feel right at home. Trouble Logging In?As mentioned prior to the upgrade, you now need to log in using your email address, not your old username. If you're running into login issues, please follow these steps: Try the "Forgot Password" tool if you still have access to your original email address. If you're still stuck, use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the page and we'll help you out. What’s Changed?Apart from the updated visual design, most of the features and functionality you’re familiar with remain unchanged. It’s the same Demonland you know and love — just with a modern facelift. We’ve also added Dark Mode! If that’s more your style, you can toggle it on by clicking the Moon icon at the bottom of the page. Help Us Iron Out the KinksWhile we’ve done our best to test everything, there may still be a few gremlins lurking. If you spot anything broken or behaving oddly, please report it here. We'll continue to tweak and fine-tune the design over the coming days. Thanks for your patience and support — and enjoy the new Demonland experience! A MASSIVE THANK YOU TO @Nasher for persisting with the upgrade and finding the solution. We nearly had another failed upgrade. We were 19 points down in the 3rd quarter and he went BANG! BANG BANG BANG!!!
