The on-site font adjustment was one of the unfortunate casualties of the upgrade. Which device are you using (computer/tablet/phone) and which browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc)?

Android/duckduck/geezervision for me. A little larger font if possible please.

 

[Caveman Jim]

Same here, iPhone duck duck go

If it is on a desktop or laptop computer, you can enlarge the font yourself. On a Mac, you just hit "Command" and "+" as many times as needed.

 

[BigDog67]

On a PC it is CONTROL and +

Weird! On my PC the font is larger than what I remember under the old version. No difference on my iPhone.

Smaller on mine, but readable.

I'm off till the writing on the wall (iPhone) gets bigger...

I'm embarrassed to admit I've already used the work around of padding 25 characters with spaces.

Not sure why that is required on the latest release, but there must be some reason.

On the iPhone, next to the URL there's a couple A's. Tap that, then touch the large A on the right

Yeah, the 25 spaces is annoying. I could see 10-15, but 25 is annoying. Do we have problems with trolls that require this?

One of the reasons our search works so poorly (probably our #1 complaint) is because people often use short or vague titles that don't describe the content of the actual post (since it's weighted toward longer titles). I've posted about it a bunch but it doesn't really make a difference, so I put this together in an effort to improve it. Sounds like it may need to be rethunk

Is there a way to search posts using Google searching without going off the site?

I have noticed sites that do that (IIRC) have much better searching than most forum software does.

There is, but I want to keep it in-house for a few reasons (privacy being a big one). This new search system should be much better, once I have more time to fine-tune it

I just searched "floundering carp", and "Billy-weasel-whistle" and got nada....

C'mon, man!!

Thanks for the info. Surprisingly, it seems the DuckDuckGo browser doesn't have a way to change font sizes within the app. I'll figure out a workaround
