Laurie,

Agree with PTFS111 re not going to the last post. Didn't want to complain, as I was shy 😂

Will do. I know this is weird, but are you clicking on the left of the title, or on the right where the avatars are?

Try tap/click on the right, not the left.

Shall fix this.

Cheers! See the purple scribble in my previous screenshot. I click/tap on the right where it says username/time of last post. Tried all the other places that I could possibly click, no difference. I'm not logged in all the time in case that makes a difference.

Not yet for me. On a desktop browser, it seems to work now and I'm landing on the last page and #lastpost. On mobile not though, it's just going to the start of the thread (first page, first post).

Loading pages seems a bit slower on my devices, not a complaint just an observation

So far don’t like

It it times out on Safari…. If that’s the term. I have a few tabs open and when I come back to SB it’s always saying can’t display as lost connection to server. So I have to refresh, that doesn’t always work so I’m clicking back arrow. Putting me on a page I don’t want. It used to be easy to come back to SB and as I opened the page it always worked. Frustrating if you want to have the forecast open and come back to it lots during the day

(2) trying to add pics to a post. It only shows the first page of pics and scrolling down to make it load another page it looks like it’s trying - white screen like it’s thinking- then after 10-20sec it loads the first screen of my pics again. So can’t load an old one into a post. Went and found the pic, copied it, no paste option in the edit post screen.


too hard I’ll wait til I’m on PC and use the old version lol

Another request.



Allowing "Enter" to submit forms is exceptionally annoying because accidentally not pressing the shift-key before enter, causes messages to be delivered.

And in the case of personal-messages, there isn't any ability to edit messages.

Allow angle-brackets ... dont strip them off... so that we can do something like "a is less than b"

Just checking that: A, I am still alive, and that…. B, I can still post here.


Both seem good and, on topic, thanks for the upgrade.
Great to see so many of us still windsurfing, when there are many new recreational options.

Should be lightning fast now. We had issues with bot's smashing the site, and have mitigated. AI scrapers have gone nuts of late.

Odd, I get that now and again, and am looking to isolate. It's actually coming from CloudFlare who are our edge caching provider (power 20% of the internet) .. is it still happening for you?

I thought Cloudflare had figured out how to block them.
