EDIT: Now the new style sheet has been added, please use the new thread for issues relating to the new responsive design so we can keep them all in one place!
hello lushies
i've been working on a responsive version of the story site (everything apart from the Forum for now) for a while.
for those of you who access Lush using their phone or tablet, i would appreciate any feedback you have on this new site. if you see any rendering issues or some whack pages, please mention them below. screenshots would be appreciated!
i have setup a temporary site to host this:
**removed**
you should be able to login, message and even use chat as normal. i will aim at moving this code to the live site this week baring any major issues found.
cheers, gav
^ wow awesome work IT. you deserve a badge or something!!
Just took a quick look but, dang, I think you nailed it. This is the mobile site we needed. I shall peruse it more and add comments if I see anything worth noting.
Mobile platform works great, but I'm stuck at home for the next 2-3 months. When the pandemic ceases, and I'm not dead, I shall whip out my Note 9 and read the forum or stories or chat - with ease and not care one bit if anyone at the mall, baseball game or the DMV can see my screen.
Solid work, Gav
The same GQP demanding we move on from January 6th, 2021 is still doing audits of the November 3rd, 2020 election.
It works great but even on my phone I prefer the desktop version for when I decide to change my background on the mobile I cant see my background.
I really want to access the desktop version on my phone and devices. Please, please say that is still possible.
It would be nice to be able to get to the home page or be able to contact the mods. I use an iPad most of the time and the changes seem to awkward as hell.
Some issues:
The links are ultra slow.
Cannot see author's stories on their home page.
No home page.
And yes, l personally prefer access to the regular desktop version for my phone and mobile devices.
The desktop version on my desktop is gone too. When I log in, it is hard to find a way to one's own bio page.
Sorry, but I think this is clunky, difficult, and it's much harder to navigate.
I really hate what has happened to my bio page. Can we not have the bio pages back like they were? We spent a lot of time getting those right.
I think authors want readers and viewers to have easy access to their story list like it was before. That's probably the most important thing.
I vote to bring back the old desktop version. It was awesome! It was a huge reason I came to Lush and the old desktop version is way better than anything else out there.
Things are so much easier to access and organized better on the previous desktop site. This is much more like the competition's sites - why I don't like them.
add another vote for wanting access to the old desktop version. while i can see the appeal to some mobile/tablet users, the ability to use the desktop version on my phone is why i enjoyed using my phone in the first place.
also, i too find the profiles to no longer be inviting and requiring more work to interact with authors. being able to see stories/poems at a glance was greatly appreciated.
as always, your efforts are truly valued, gav. thanks for ALL you!❤
Hi:
I find this set-up confusing and I prefer the old way. It’s very clunky.
Hugs,

Sorry, I use an iPad and always use the previous desktop version. And it’s just not working. Profiles are all over the place what used to be visible when the profile opened is now a long scroll down the page. I can’t click on my profile, the icon is missing from the top of the page where it used to be, so I can’t access settings which is crucial.
Please put it back as it was.
I want the desktop version back, is that possible or already possible if so how?
