My password doesn't work there at all on Tapatalk, and on the Cruise Critic app all I get is a blank screen. I'll keep checking in every so often though. That might be an configuration issue with the software. I run the same software on a forum and had to do some tweaking to get iOS devices to be able to use the forums. It does display well on Android phones. It doesn't look like they have enabled Tapatalk so they are counting on the mobile access for mobile users, I think. It's actually not a bad experience on mobile / Android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medtech2 Posted October 17, 2018 #127 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I like the ease of directly adding a picture and not that rigamarole of going through another site but navigation is harder for me. I also just had to log in twice so hopefully that stops. Pages aren't loading as fast for me. Hopefully it gets smoother 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is too much scrolling and extraneous stuff to use this forum in a mobile browser, so I'll access only when I am on the computer if I can't login to Tapatalk. That will be rare since I don't often use my home computer since I am on a computer all day at work. I think Tapatalk is no longer gonna work!😥 Just load CC through the browser and it works ok🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_sobe Posted October 17, 2018 #129 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Is there a way to turn off the alerts? I don't mind it when I am on the CC site but my computer makes a noise every time someone responds to the same post that I did. I find that annoying when I am on another site and not on cruise critic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelicanBill Posted October 17, 2018 #133 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The Cruise Critic App is retired - the new system does not have an app. You must use a browser and the site is designed to format for a better mobile device experience. Tapatalk is TBD... it does not work at this time, we know there is a plug in that would make it work, we don't know if that will happen. But it does not work for now.

PelicanBill Posted October 17, 2018 #134 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Can anyone tell if the default fonts were improved or am I just getting used to it? I don't find it as hard to read as of late yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that annoying when I am on another site and not on cruise critic. Yes, click your username at the very top right of the page, then select "Account Settings". On the page that then loads, select "Notification Settings" in the right column. Make sure you turn off every setting you want off, and don't rely on just the settings I show in this image. There are a number of settings to toggle off for email notifications, etc. For browser notifications, see this article: https://www.wikihow.com/Turn-Off-Notifications-on-PC-or-Mac When CC then asks if they can send you notifications the next time you visit the app, say "no".

How would CC know what I searched on other pages? Is this normal? It's your browser that is remembering what you typed into a similar box on a different site. It's similar to how your browser remembers things like address and phone number fields across web sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted October 17, 2018 #146 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Folks on our Roll Call are talking about this, sharing some of the comments: Getting used to this new CC forum site as their IT seemed to continue to tweak it. On the profile picture - had to re-upload mine (160 x 107 dpi). Resize & shrink it to no bigger than 175 x 150 dpi, use one of the photo editing app or software to do this, or Paint using Windows 10. If you make changes & save it, and you have a longer signature with URLs linked, like mine, it will failed or warn of it. Cancelled & going to wait till I get a chance to move my prior review links packed with (broken/crippled) photos uploaded to a different server, then create a URL link to that page ... more work ahead. It is mobile-friendly, vertical or portrait mode optimized but - I can't possibly see scrolling around easily to touch, point & click with my bigger fingers (I don't run around with a stylus, unlike the PDA days) The "preview" option now is for phone or tablet mode - although it's mostly WYSIWYG. Tapatalk is definitely not working, cannot even log in ... Requirements for the Signature - Maximum of 1 image Images up to 150 x 175 pixels Maximum of 3 URLs Maximum of 6 lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaja Posted October 17, 2018 #149 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I am really having a problem reading the screen! Text too small and screen too white!

birdie16 Posted October 17, 2018 #150 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Sorry, not liking it at all. These changes pretty much killed my Roll Call, I think it scared people away. Why did it have to change? It was so "comfortable" before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
