FAQs - anyone know where they are for VFP

Be a really big shame if they got lost in translation... B-(

Click the FAQS box above. All there, but hard to use.

Does it show as a box to you?

to me it shows as a link that obviously is context sensitive, i.e. while you read a thread of some forum you get to that forums FAQ(s).

I just noticed a nice change, you can just paste in images into a post, simpler than before.

On my phone, I don't have any of the boxes (including FAQ) that you show.

Does Hamburger menu tell you anything?

If you're frequently using your smartphone to browse the web you should be used to the web page styling differing from the Desktop layout. And one now everywhere used item is the three lines that sketch a menu aka hamburger button or hamburger menu. Tapping on that the actual menu slides in from the left.

This is new for this forum, sure. But a thing for at least 10 years. When was the upcoming of smartphones? About 2010 with Apples iPhone. So I'm not exaggerating, am I?

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger_button

Cox's hamburger icon saw a resurgence starting in 2009 stemming from the limited screen area available to mobile apps.

and the icon itself and it's meaning is actually older:

The icon was originally designed by Norm Cox as part of the user interface for the Xerox Star personal computer, introduced in 1981

So for how long are you using internet on your phone?

PS: Take out the info and ignore the sarcasm, please. I'm mostly that way, not just since I recently started rewatching Elementary with Sherlock in about the same crisis of seeing what others don't see. I don't feel proud of this, it's actually annoying me as it drags me down emotionally.

Hello Jon,

thanks for looking in. There's a point in the intent of the hamburger menu to be there to accomodate the smaller physical size of mobile devices: What's in there should not be among the most frequently used nav items, too.

Well, you can argue to put in all navigation there, too. And I could think of many more resons: The site software works that way and it's not completly in your hands to rearrange everything as you like. As with any site system.

I also think you have discussed many things like that over the last years, I assume that forum migration wasn't a rushed decision.
