BBS in a website

Could you be more specific, Egg? On Android it just scrolls nicely.

Here too.

some people have used nabble to do forum with an Iframe.

I have never done this just remember reading about it on here.

You may want to do a search on talkgraphicsfor nabbler because if I remember right the person doing it need help in setting up the code to have it work on variants. I think Acorn helped them out.

Sorry for the late reply. I was talking about on my iPhone. I used to have an old Android phone for testing purposes but it's given up the ghost.

Perhaps Gary could test this on his iPhone?

Most of my website problems seem to come from trying to accommodate mobile devices. The Nabble forum plug-in works fine in this web until I try to include it in the 'phone version, then it double exposes in the "Main" version. I have found that almost all websites open on my 'phone, though usually too small to read easily. However, if I rotate the 'phone to horizontal it reads easily. So, why are we greatly increasing our work developing a Main and a Mobile version of each web?

Good question. I guess that's why websites increasingly have hamburger menus instead of the regular ones with mouseover effects that complicate browsing on mobile devices.

One advantage of a mobile version, though, is that it allows a visitor immediate (not having to rotate the device) and better readable (larger fonts and often less text) access to the site.

Scrolls fine in Safari on my iPhone X.

Thanks for that Gary, it appears Apple has sorted out a long standing issue. Unfortunately it doesn't on earlier versions of ios for example, my iPad is long in the tooth and won't update beyond ios 10. Similarly my iPhone 5 won't update beyond ios 12, so on neither of my devices does the iframe scroll, only the page. So this needs to be born in mind.

Here's a page with a cludgy workaround.

Here's a video of the page scrolling on an iPad, NOT the iframe.

I set up a Banker forum and it works on my variant, too. Thanks for the tip!
