No vertical space between blog entries
Hello, If possible, could you please elaborate on what you would like changed here? The entries are intended to be contained within a single box, with borders to separate them: There was an issue with a lack of margin between the title and the description if thatās what youāre referring to? Thatāll be fixed in an upcoming version.

Doesn't work on old versions of Chrome
Even though v5 uses very modern CSS code, care has been taken to ensure old devices can still render everything correctly thanks to fallback code. With that said, if the operating system on these devices purposely isnāt being upgraded, it becomes incredibly tough to start supporting them. The usage of iOS 13 is only 0.01% according to āCanIUseā, and I wasnāt even able to find a used 6S which was running iOS 13 on any marketplace website in my country, so this is most definitely a very uncommon situation. During development, Iāve been testing v5 using a Macbook Air from early 2015 (before the iPhone 6S was even announced) and itās working great. I believe your iPhone 6S would also do the same if you were to upgrade, since iOS 15 comfortably handles v5. I agree that v5 could look a little more presentable for vintage operating systems, but I canāt make any promises that everything will work (CSS isnāt the only culprit here, weāre also using modern JS and new HTML elements too).

Newspaper columns for easy reading of content on larger displays
Thanks for the suggestion however there are currently no plans to include this. You are welcome to add that CSS to your own community if youād like to implement it :)

Lazy loading for logo if it is an image
Lazy loading images is only a good idea if the image is ābelow the foldā (outside the screen while the page loads). Since logos are at the top of the page, they will always be on the screen during page load, so lazy loading is not ideal for them. Youāll even get suggestions from PageSpeed tools telling you to remove the attribute if it exists.

Breaking changes
The email doesnāt need to be āactiveā for logins to work, so burner emails or expired emails/domains will work fine for existing members. But when it comes to participating in a community, having an active email is a huge benefit (password resets, email notifications, etc). The migration from usernames to emails for logins is a nice reminder for your members to make sure their account details up to date, which is never a bad thing.

The improvement in the mobile view is phenomenal
Hi @Scorn Thanks so much for the feedback - I really appreciate that! A lot of work was put into making the mobile UI more comparable to the desktop UI, so Iām glad that itās made a positive improvement for you :) I understand the concerns with the topic list as Iāve had similar opinions too. A āreply arrowā icon was originally placed between the username and date which helped to identify the user as the ālast replierā rather than the original author. Repositioning the author to the right side could also be a nice idea, so Iāll have a play this week š¤

Breaking changes
Hi Mick, Themes will need to be recreated from scratch for v5. The frontend has received a significant rewrite, so v4 themes will not work on v5.

Why doesn't the Home have a flow layout like X?
The āFluid viewā layout for forums is also a nice solution for displaying content instead of forums.

Mobile Menu Tweaks
Thanks @Dreadknux Iāve pushed some changes today to improve the mobile navigation menu. Icons have been added to submenu links. Active links are now highlighted with the primary color. If the active link exists inside a submenu, the submenu will be expanded by default on page load. I donāt believe we have any plans to introduce an āexpanded by defaultā feature for submenus on mobile, although you could potentially do this with CSS.

Mobile footer menu
Hi Antony, Yep. This can be done via the Theme Editor. Apps are displayed inside the āMenuā button. Once tapped, that will display the navigation list. The amount of icons will vary if youāre signed in or not. For example, guests will see Login and Register buttons instead of New Content, Notifications and Messages. I personally wouldnāt go above 5 icons in this row if possible, otherwise it could become a little squashed. You could with template hooks, but there currently isnāt a Menu Manager for the bottom bar, so youād need to do this via code.

Content delay
š¤Ø Strange.. Does this happen on all of your devices? Iāve never seen that and I done believe itās been reported by anyone else, so this might be a tough one to diagnose..
