interesting. using # symbol created that node field. so # 1 (remove space) created a link to home

I can confirm both of those. Firefox on iOS.
 
I wouldn't call this a major issue, but just a request. Does the new version allow for for us to get the old 'favicon' back?

I miss seeing this on my tabs:
favicon-V2.png
 
When you give a reason for editing a post, it doesn’t show up in that post.
 
Search doesn’t seem to be working properly. It doesn’t seem to be searching every post. For instance, if I search for "cyberpunk,” it only comes up with one result.
 
Even after reading all active threads in the channel, the channel still shows up as having unread threads (green in dark mode). You have to click mark channel as read at the bottom to make it go pale.

I just changed the thread read status type to be cookie based (same system as the old forum) vs database based.

An update on this problem: it only seems to affect posts and threads that were created before the upgrade. Could this be a search indexing issue?

Well cookie basing got rid of the rarely used channels to be read but I'm still having the I've read all the threads inside but the main page is showing the channel as having un-reads. Is no big deal, can just click the mark as all read at the bottom.

I changed it back to database mode. When viewing the forum on mobile after viewing it on my desktop, the threads that I read on my desktop were showing up as not read on mobile. Same goes for notifications
 
The forum now redirects anyone going to the non-secure website (http) to the https URL. This (hopefully) should fix the main forum index showing you a s logged out but refreshing or going to a subforum you are actually logged in.
 
One thing I've noticed is threads that I've posted in has that little green colored pip to the left it always says I posted at the current time when I haven't posted in said thread for days or even months or years.
