@Nick & @Matt

I'm on a search to find events to plan for for the year. As I can seem to find a consolidated site that lists ALL/Most cycling races I though why not have a look at thehub, its should have most of the more popular events listed.

And here is where I picked up an issue, it will only show upcoming events, this is all good and well, but as we know these generally only get added closer to the time the event will happen, it wont allow me to look for events that happened in the past, say 2022.

 

I recently wanted to look up an event from earlier in 2022.  Was surprised that I could not find it via "Events".

 

Ride reports and other posts relating to the event gets lost this way.

We’ve had a few reports of similar issues following a recent site update.

Clearing your browser cache should resolve it.

That's an odd one. Can you post (or DM me) a screenshot, please?

It could be a zoom setting on your browser. Is it zoomed out?

I have this article strangely sticking on my feed even if I "read" it. Should just be showing latest unread threads.

The Vuelta thread? We had a weird account necro that thread recently. The account was banned so maybe a bug in doing that somewhere. I'll go check it out.

Or the Go2berg thread?

I've been having endless issues with the website of late. Maybe it is the lack of sleep from the little one but I constantly have to find clever workarounds to make basic stuff work. Let me list the items that pokes the bear: 

1) I can't load photos onto my ads directly from my phone. My phone - Samsung galaxy S21 (something or other) takes quite good quality pics so size is an issue. I then email the pics to a laptop / pc to reduce the size before uploading. This is an unnecessary step but I have been doing it for quite some time now (even with the previous phone I had to do this - Samsung A51) 

2) This morning I've discovered that the extension Samsung now use for their photos are: .heic - this means I now have to use another camera or change the extention of every photo before uploading it - yet another work around for something that should be basic. 

3) The screen jumps on my phone i.e. every time I change from typing (keyboard) to pointer in the comments box the screen doesn't remain static, it jumps back to the top and the cursor drops at some random place. This happens if I want to add an emoji as well. It drops the emoji anywhere, mid sentence, at the beginning of the comment box, anywhere. I then can't delete it as it almost becomes a permanent item. Again, I then have to find a cute way of getting it off my screen and then add it to the correct place. 

4) Couldn't one always be able to start threads / topics from your phone?

Seems jpeg is on the way out ....

 

 

Until then, go to the Gallery and return the settings to jpeg as default

 

 

 

Sorry, no idea about the other issues

Might be old news, but is it normal for the active topics to not save the filter of all content?

So articles and off topic stuff i haven't seen up until like 2 weeks ago wondering about the "i have an idea of new thread" thread
