Links crash the app!

[Deleted]

Is there something I can do or ya'll can do? Links to other proboards discussions crash the app every single time. Any other links work fine. Help!
Thank you!

Actually it's not every time. It has to do with the format of links people use on the boards--like just copying from their browsers address bar.

Here's a link that should work for you in the app, because I used the link to post option in the app to get the URL rather than just grabbing the URL from my browser:

pandce.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=18&action=display&thread=209439

However the link below I grabbed from the Desktop version using the link to post option, and it doesn't work on mobile. So maybe if they could fix the desktop version of link to post so it used mobile-friendly urls?

On my phone (android) the first link that y4m posted works and the second says "invalid request" but the app doesn't crash.

It looks like the second link (that doesn't work) is the new v5 format & the first is the old format. Patrick

Hi EllieArroway,

We have a list of known issues with the app, one of which is the links not working right over here. All links are technically supposed to open in Safari, but the coders of our app added support for certain links to translate nicely for opening the correct threads. We just need to have them update the code to support v5's link styles.

Thanks for that link! I will try to remember it next time. I keep forgetting about the mobile support board.

I'm glad to see the request for a like button on the list. I hope that makes its way into a future update!
