Richard, would it be worth adding this as a FAQ so that we can refer people as they see the issue in future?
We donāt have the FAQ for the operating the forum any more, but I think itās fine to just point anyone to this thread.
I can see the Forum FAQ is still there on my iPhone Richard?
Interesting - I thought Iād hidden it.
I can see it but I tried to start a topic (just as an experiment!) and that was greyed out.
I can also see it (thus my suggestion), is it possible that beta testers can still see it?
Yes, Iāll have to look into it.
Itās not just beta testers because I looked at the forum in a different browser that Iām not signed into. I couldnāt see the beta forum therefore, but I could still see the new forum support FAQs!

My iPad can not now load even the home page of this forum and Iām having issues using the iPhone.
I can predict more than half of the regulars disappearing sooner than later due to screw ups.
You could try using the Discourse app which is available for iPhone and iPad. I just use Safari without problems, but I know some forum regulars use the app which works better for them.

TJ, is your iPad iOS up to date?
As David advises above, i recommend you use the dedicated App if you have issues using regular Safari on either an iPhone or iPad.
FWIW, I use a mix of iPads, iPhone (here I use the App as it makes using the forum so much easier on a small device), and MacBook Pros and have no issues with loading the forum.

My 2012 4th ? generation iPad is stuck on iOS 10. So that must be the reason nothing loads from community.naimaudio.com from any route - google, safari and discourse hub etc.
My iPhone is on ios 12 and the Mac on the newest.
Indeed, my MacBook Air will run my Nova
TJ, Iāve checked with our web developer and he confirms that Discourse gets plenty of Javscript errors if you try to run on iOS 11, so I guess iOS 10 is just as bad if not worse.
However, Iāve dug out an old iPad Mini running iOS 12 and the forum seems to run just fine on that.
Yes. Iām sure I am not the only one with old steam powered tech. Iāve written to Santa and asked for a newer one.

My Windows XP has been rendered āForum obsoleteā by Naimās recent upgrade to the Forum.
It was rendered obsolete by Microsoft years agoā¦

Yes, I know.
Iām a bit old fashioned.
Got sorted with a wife 50 years ago and with a bit of tender, loving care, sheās still as good as new.
My old Dell Dimension XPS 266 running with Windows 95 is still running quite smoothly - although not connected to the Internet.
And the old brain, pushing 75, still seems to work, even upside down at 120kts ā¦ā¦
But Naimā web developer, with one futuristic swipe of his keyboard has rendered the old ThinkPad ā Forum obsoleteā
Hey ho, there we go !

Welcome to the future! (when I worked in a software development environment in the 80ās Microsoft was doing updates to their operating systems software so often it was difficult to keep up with their changes and support our own customer base.)

Iāve seen many developments in my time.
At university we used sliderules but also a KDF9 mainframe computer. We wrote our own programs in Either Algol or Fortran, on cards then punch tape.
I bought a BBC model B computer and wrote in Basic.
Then along came PCs with Windows, WordPerfect and Lotus 123. Followed by Office ā¦ā¦
Iāve just realised that my iPad Mini 4 is now 5 years old and no doubt derelict !!!
Iāll only briefly mention ADF/VOR/DME/GPS
Still, onwards and upwards ā¦ā¦
ā¦. But for heavenās sake, keep up with the times and keep handing your money to Apple, Microsoft and Garmin !
