Capitol Hill Blue Forums Forum News & Information Forum News/Questions/Concerns, etc. Android support for CHB

I've been away from CHB for a while despite being an early member. Now I find that I can't read CHB from my android devices. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Seems to point me to WordPress as though I'm the site creator.

"There has been a critical error on your website.

Thanks for any help.

I am very glad that you're back, Jeffers.
Anyway, I regularly attempt reading the Rant on my Android smartphone but I have to go horizontal and zoom the page slightly to make it readable to my aging eyes.

So, it apparently does "work" on Android, but one must define the meaning of "works".
So, if you're saying it doesn't even show up, maybe try installing Chrome browser? That's what I am using on my Android smartphone and tablets.

The only other thing I can suggest is the possibility that it is way past time for the Rant to update the forum's software, but that is probably something I would be afraid to attempt. Perhaps Doug Thompson might consider doing the upgrade someday soon.

Clearly you're accessing it from another machine right now, yes?
Anyway it's good to see you again, and I hope you will stick around!

If there IS a major upgrade, most likely it would be announced in this very same Forum News section as a "Sticky" topic.

Hi, I can read the readers rant, but not capitolhillblue.com.

And I always use chrome. Sorry i wasnt clear.

Oh how strange. Well, as it turns out I have zero weight over there.
Surprised it doesn't display but I sure am glad you can access the Rant!

Anyway, I sure do hope you jump back in, I found an old thread from back when you were a regular and it's definitely still relevant today. It was about minimum wage.

Thanks for your reply. I just posted here because I did know where to send it at chb. I'll try again.

Dude, you were absolutely right.
I just tried accessing the HOME page for CHB and sure enough, it thinks I am a WordPress blogger with a buggy account.

Whoo boy, I'll let Mr. Thompson know, he might not even realize it, or...the solution might be more pricey than he feels jazzed about forking over.
Either way watch this space, I guess.

I will anxiously await your reply.

Doug Thompson messaged me back and stated that he had been unaware of the Android issue...assuming as it loaded correctly on his iPhone all was well. He is looking into whether or not there is a solution for Android or to see if it's just an accidental error message.

That's it so far, but I sure do hope you'll visit the Rant and stick around. When I hear back from Doug again, I'll certainly post here again with any news.

Thanks. Was trying to find my old posts. I'll jump in somewhere.

Pretty sure most of them are still there because I found some.
