Ah fork.

But you know when we first log into live chess in version 2 and we get thar command prompt for what kind of live game you want ?

Even if they could make a few promo videos about quick navigation etc so people can find their favourite spots on CDC, it would be helpful.

Connor: not everyone has a browser or app capable of decrypting the latest (or all) of the icons out there. Your fork icon only appears in a subset of browsers and apps.. (e.g. it does not appear in the V3 chess.com app on android (running android version 4.4.2)).

I can see the fork and pin in my Chrome browser, though, also on my Android running Android 4.4.2.

I have a problem. Kay sent me a message and its the first time I opened a message in v3. 

It was a decent message ... nothing untoward.

 

Anyway.... on the Samsung I think I accidentally hit the block button. It's so freekin close to the reply.

 

It would help if the block button was at least 1cm away from reply button. 

 

Now I need to find out how to unblock someone. sad.png

maybe a wee bit more than 1cm. It's the width of my finger. If that helps

Avatar of Connor_Macleod1518

sorry about this... me again... sad.png

I use my middle finger.

If you really did block a member, go to their profile and click/touch the unblock icon. It will be faded red if blocked and gray otherwise. You can also unblock in your settings with the same icon.

Copied from the chess.com v3 group/club:

Would be nice if the 'Club' activities were accessible through the V3 Android App top menu.  For some reason, they aren't.  "Play, Tactics, Lessons, Vids, Comp., Watch, Tournaments, Articles, Forums, Messages, Friends, Stats, Theme, & Settings".   Why is a central point of chess.com---the group/club social aspect---left conspicuously out of the V3 app?   One more reason I still cling to V2.

Avatar of Martin_Stahl

Not going to say the app doesn't need those features but I do all my club stuff (and forums) from the built in browser and it works like the site on a full device.

Avatar of Spacebux

Which begs the question, why have the app?  Almost every smart device these days has a built-in browser...

Just a question for consideration, rhetorically.

full screen experience, speed, native controls etc

Avatar of Martin_Stahl

If I just want to do some tactics or play some games, the app is better. Fot social things, the site.

Avatar of bunicula

actually today's phone screens should be large enough to do both.
