Not on mine

Time to upgrade from the Nokia then! ?

Not on mine either (4 yr old Samsung which I’m not putting out to grass yet ?). Works great on iPad though and I’m very happy with the changes the admins have made.

Quite happy with my iPhone X thanks Ford!

OK so when I turn my iPhone X on its side I get the full screen with the profile picture and the last row of the home page with the last poster details. I’ll see if I can link a screenshot.

It works if I click on 'desktop view' - but is then tiny.

Yes! It works in desktop view, hooray ?. As you say, tiny, but it’s readable with my ‘close work specs’. Thanks for the hint Leo

Finally logged in. My phone is less than a year old and I had also hopefully tried to turn it on the side. Hopefully posted today will return soon. It is good to welcome Pear Tree back. Donatella doesn't seem right with new name. No sign of Flosskirk-another with lots of useful advice. I hope things improve too as I don't use facebook either.

Posted today is now “View Latest Posts”. It’s at the top of the forum/

Leo are you Pluto / Ceres?

Sorry Safia, I'm plain old Leo (who some people may know from other boards).

Nice to meet you Leo - only asked as Pluto said she’d be using planet / astrology names and she’d disappeared and I hadn’t heard to you before!

Well finally managed to get registered - I had been on LinkMaker before and had to wait for my email to disappear out their system before I could re-register :) Now to see how long verification takes....

I have only just joined so this is all a bit depressing to read. Don’t think I would be able to join up to the full community features as no longer with an agency. Our daughter is grown up and we are now parenting her children, our grandchildren. I can see the point of security but one main thing I was hoping for was the possibility of meeting up or talking directly to people with children the same age or perhaps who were also grandparents.

Hi Lucy. The local authority that originally placed your daughter ought to still have a record of this happening, even if it was along time ago. If you let us know the authority via the form then we will do the rest. Thanks, Admin.

Thanks for that info, Admin. Will pursue that.

Dear Admin,

will there be a "(number) support this" / thumbs up/ like button again? It can be very useful to see which statements other users support or feel are particularly helpful/ insightful/ true. Thanks.

Hi chestnuttree - yes, we will be adding a 'like' button in the near future.

Thanks, Admin.

I suspect NO is the answer to the original question posed in this thread - sadly! ?

Have a sinking feeling you may be right Safia. I can't be verified as I'm only a grandparent so can't chat with other people.. which is what I suspect most are doing. I know we've been promised the chat facility for 'unverified' people but there's a wait. Now that the G thread is not being used, it's like the community feel has washed away. I think quite a few of the regular posters got fed up.of the changes. A.real shame. I'm not giving up yet but not over optimistic.
