Mobile version when logging in on laptop

Postby Stibb » Sat 03 Aug, 2013 12:37 pm

In the last couple of weeks and about 80% of when I log in I get the mobile version coming up. Why? I haven't changed any settings recently, never asked for a mobile version, deleted all my cookies and it still happens most of the time. What to do?

Hi Guys
Try clicking the "Desktop" button at the bottom of the page - This will (hopefully) add a cookie that says you want desktop mode. Detecting mobile vs laptop can be tricky -- sorry for the hassle. Hopefully this button works for you.

Hey, on a desktop but the mobile version looked nice! I might go the other way.
Just move it!

Sounds frustrating.
It sounds like cookies are not enabled on your your browser. Can you double check.
If still a problem can you let me know what browser and operating system you are using and I can look into it more.

Thanks

I'm using Firefox 22 and Mac OS 10.6.8

Hopefully you'll find something :)

Ohoh oops
I also have DoNotTrackMe installed and...hehe...I guess it prevented any bushwalk cookies to do their thing.
I have now enabled Bushwalk.com to track me and hopefully it will work better.

Firefox is up to v23. Irrespective, have you tried with another browser? Sounds like a user end problem that's specific to the particular browser/extensions in place. Erase cache, erase cookies, erase settings and see. ;)

Good advice also try closing DoNotTrackMe completely to see if that helps. There may be several cookies bouncing around and it is most likely the cause of the prob.

thanks

I already cleared history/coockies/cache before I posted my first post on the issue. I did the same thing again, turned off DoNotTrackMe but then I got the mobile version EVERY time I came here :shock: Enabled DoNotTrackMe again (white-listing bushwalk.com) and it's back to "normal" ie most of the time I get the mobile version

Not sure what you mean. I can change some settings but not erase them...

Is bushwalk.com sending any 3rd party cookies? (I don't allow any)

I haven't seen this issue with Chrome but then I stopped using chrome for this site a while ago when I got logged out everytime I was posting...and the post was lost. Don't want to go back to that!
