The (fairly) new site search function screws up the tabs on portable devices (see attached screenshot). This happens on both iPad and windows phone.

Same thing happens on the Kindle Fire.

It should be better now. Thanks for letting us know.

The forum search and the "New posts" link are now missing. And old links to the new posts entry result in a message saying searching has been disabled.

I use new posts all the time, any chance getting that functionality back please?

Okay. It looks like disabling the search also disables the New Posts feature. I'll have to look at removing the search bar separate from disabling the search. I'll post an update shortly.

"New Posts" seems to still be missing.

You might have a cached version still. Have you tried clearing your cache or using CTRL+F5?

I have a link bookmarked to the "new posts" - when I use that bookmark, I get a message: "Andraax, you do not have permission to access this page."

How about now?

Also, if you are at the root of the Forum, do you see New Posts as an option?

My bookmarked link now works, and I now see the "New Posts" link on the menu bar for the forum.

It was doing the same thing for me as well. It's fine now.
