jcgoble3 Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 So I tried to bring up the forums here on my phone while I was at KI the other day. The forums came up in the mobile skin, but after a couple minutes of hunting, I discovered that there is no way to login—literally, there is no login button or link on the mobile skin. Can somebody add a login link to the mobile skin, please? Quote
Avatar Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 If you go to the very bottom of the IP.Board app for this site (basically scroll to the bottom) You should see the words "Full Version Search" click on that and that should give you the full web version. We I do that I usually can not go back to the easier Mobile IP.Board for this site unless i power my phone off and on. We go through IP.Board and are limited to there contrasts so what we have is what we have until the next update. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Posted May 30, 2011 That doesn't help. Clicking on "Full Version" gives me the error "Page Too Large; Open Mobile Site" and then kicks me out of the browser. I don't have one of these fancy iPhones or Droids, just a cheap phone from TracFone that probably doesn't even qualify as a "smartphone". Unless we can somehow get a login button added to the mobile skin, I won't be able to post from my phone. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 At the top of the page, beside KI CENTRAL FORUMS, is an oddly colored box. Click on it. Log on should be among the options. Quote
Avatar Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 You should be able to log into KIC using the mobile app. go to the top of the page on the home page for KIC. Next to the words :Kings Island Central Forum" you should see a couple ">>" on a button hit that and that should give you the choices you need to log in and give you some other choices. Edit Terpy beat me to it and on a IPhone no doubt. Good Evening buddy. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 And without a fancy app. I'm runnin' plain. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Posted May 30, 2011 OK, something's screwy here. If I switch to the mobile skin here on my computer, I see the box you two are talking about, and yes, I can log in and out from there. However, when I bring up the site on my phone, that box is missing. I don't know what's going on here. I'm using an LG 500G, which is a phone model exclusive to TracFone. 1 Quote
Oldiesmann Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Try this URL in your phone's browser. This will take you straight to the login page: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?app=core&module=global§ion=login (I put it in code tags because it won't show the full URL otherwise) Quote
jcgoble3 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Posted June 2, 2011 ^ That gives me the login page, where I can type in my username and password, but when I click "Login", it apparently tries to load the full version of the site, because I get the "Page Too Large; Open Mobile Site" error and I get kicked off the browser. When I bring the browser back up and load the forums' home page, I discover that the login didn't take because I'm still seeing the unregistered version of the page. I'm about ready to give up here.

The Interpreter Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 It would appear your phone can't handle the features of the mobile site.... Quote
EssentiallyCoaster Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Most times mobile sites can only be used with full browsers on phones loaded with iOS, Android, webOS, or Symbian. Not the bad browser on feature phones. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Posted June 2, 2011 Oh well. It was worth a try. Thanks for the help anyway, guys! Quote
CoasterGeek101 Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 Thanks! I am trying to access KIC on a phone! Quote
