The same here, I can see no more than 1 short post at a time on my mobile screen because most of the space is occupied with user info.

It took me a good hour and a half to actually get logged in, which is an inauspicious start, and the overwhelming feeling is that it's very, very narrow. Like, half a dozen words and you spill onto another line narrow. I know brevity isn't my strong point, but I can't help but feel that's going to be an issue at times for readability in megathreads and those threads where long and detailed posts are the norm, such as Eshnar's Giro stage thread introductions or the Race Design Thread. And the top of each page feels like the choice of forum software has been built on amount of advertising space available.
Maybe once I'm used to some of the new features it'll feel more intuitive, but as things stand, I'd rather have forum that makes actual discussion (as opposed to chit-chat) easy to read than the opportunity to earn trophies if people like my posts.

Where the number of pages is, if you click that you can select a page. You still have to scroll through longer than the Torah to get there...

At the bottom of the page between 'prev' and 'next'. But I clearly misunderstood what PeterB's issue is, I thought he doesn't know how to get to the specific page. And still need to scroll all the way down. I see 2 arrows that should help with that, but only 'up' works for me

On my mobile screen there is no number of pages. There is a number on the PC version. There is a number of posts on the mobile screen, to the right of the thread name, clicking on which takes you to the first page, where you then have to do the scroll and scroll and scroll thing and click again.
It looks like clicking on the date of the most recent post (below the thread title) takes you to the latest page (but don't click on the poster's name, that's a profile link).

Ah ok, I meant the page numbers when you are in the thread and have scrolled down through the book of the dead (I’m going to run out of scroll references soon, not sure ninja scroll cuts it...).
The date works for me, thanks for pointing that out.

Yes, and sincere apologies to anyone who lost their content during the migration. I spent hours trying to turn the old board into read only mode. Unfortunately the old forum software was pretty much non-responsive in the back end. Very few if any changes would "stick". While the loss is unfortunate, the good news is that this type of issue will never occur in the future. Well, let's not say never, but it is highly, extremely, very unlikely

FYI if you are unhappy with the current theme, you can always change it to dark mode. Sidebars can collapse as well!

I can't help but notice that I have a cake, and I haven't seen anyone else who does, which means; I win!
One question; when was the migration started? Coz post made on the 6th were lost too.

You're mean!
So... in this thread I'm logged in, but in the 'Transfers and Rumours' thread I'm not...
Nevermind…

Another suggestion - can the avatars of users who created the thread be removed from the list of threads? I find it quite useless and it is not only distracting, but also misleading (e.g. Jumbo rider is pictured next to Ineos thread...).

They seem to have gone for me now.
Going to mess with theme etc. To see if I can increase screen real estate. My phone isn’t the newest and all the awards etc. take up a lot of room.

There are definitely posts missing. The USA Cycling on TV thread had a discussion over the last few days about the Tour of Utah and none of it is there.

Reducing the font helped a bit and I like the dark theme, I use it on a lot of other programmes and sites.
Would be good if we could hide the trophies somehow.

In the upper left of the screen is 3 line icon. Click it and a menu appears, you can select New Posts and it shows you the threads. Like 'View New' on the old system.

This, or from the forum front page there is a “What’s New” option on the right at the bottom of the purple banner.

Nine times in ten, I'm not logged in when using the site.
Further, the site has a large number of long-time lurkers, never-time posters. The excessive amount of real estate taken up by intrusive ads will not help retain them, or convert them to logged-in users.
